Embodied therapy is an approach that combines traditional talk therapy with somatic practices. It might include breathwork, grounding exercises, guided movement, mindfulness, meditation, imagery, or even role-play. The aim is to bring awareness to physical sensations, helping clients notice how emotions “live” in the body. By tuning in, people often unlock insights and release long-held patterns.

In a world that often demands conformity, genderqueer individuals embody a powerful truth: identity can go beyond the binary. Identity can be fluid, intangible. It is lived, felt, and continually unfolding. For many genderqueer folks, somatic practices offer a vital path to reconnect with their body and cultivate inner safety. Somatic practices—like breathwork, movement, grounding exercises, body scans, mindfulness, and embodied meditation—invite us to slow down and listen to the wisdom of our bodies.
