The Mind-Body Connection in Somatic Exercise Therapy

In SET, the notion of 'soma' refers to the body as perceived from within, where one listens deeply to their interior sensations and responses. The therapy works on the principle that our bodies store physical, emotional and mental stress, leading to chronic tension and illness over time.
