What is Somatics?
Somatics with Kelli Peacock returns the gentle dialogue between the body, mind and spirit with Hanna Somatic Education. HSE is a gentle, re-learning practice that uses a system of slow and gentle movements to help release habitual postural patterns that are often created from stress, repetitive motion, injury and trauma.  HSE is relaxing and involves gaining an understanding of how the muscles and nervous system works together. Everything is done with a conscious intention of contracting and releasing, without force and focusing on internal sensations of the movement.
