Somatic Exploration Journeys
Body based, nervous system-led coaching sessions that guide you back to yourself - shifting your relationship with stress and inner pressure, so you feel more free to move through life with greater self trust.
You’ve done some inner work… but something still feels stuck.
You’ve tried counselling.
You’ve done coaching to reframe and shift your beliefs, received energy healings to clear stagnant energy, journaled, visualised, read the books, listened to the podcasts.
And while it’s all helped, it feels like there’s a glass ceiling inside you, like a density, resistance, or tension that doesn’t budge, and you can’t seem to move through no matter what you do.
On the outside, it looks like you’ve got it together. Getting things done. Pushing through. Showing up.
But underneath? It’s feels like a different story…
Anxiety. Shrinking yourself. Pushing yourself beyond your limits.
The voice that says “I should be doing more”, “I’m so far behind, "or “Who am I?”.
You know what you’re capable of, but self-doubt, old patterns and the weight of shame keep pulling you back.
And if I can guess? A part of you is tired of that voice pushing or telling you to shrink, or not be ‘too weird’ or ‘too soft’, and you want it to loosen its grip a little.
There’s only so much you can think your way to change.
Your body (aka your nervous system) also needs to be included in this process.
It’s not that you haven’t journaled enough, thought positively enough, or done enough nervous system “hacks.”
It’s that while your mind may be consciously ready for change, your body (nervous system) often needs a bit more space to catch up.
Your nervous system intelligently carries protective patterns and unprocessed life experiences, which shape how you think, feel, and respond.
But sometimes they keep you looping, no matter how much mindset work you’ve done.
You don’t need someone to tell you what to do
(You probably wouldn’t want that anyway)
You need space to process what’s unprocessed
Not to ’fix’ you, but to help you be with what’s happening in your body.
It’s about helping you shift your relationship towards your nervous system, stress, anxiety, and feeling overwhelmed by your feelings or self doubt.
Reconnecting you with your body, learning how to work with yourself, not against yourself.
So you can move in resonance and coherence with how your body wants to move/feel/experience, and how you want to experience and relate to life itself.
And be the highly sensitive, deep-feeling, flowing human that you are, in a way that feels true for you and works for you.
This is what Somatic Exploration Journeys are for.
Somatic Exploration Journeys are for those craving depth, reconnection, and deeper reverence for themselves, nature, the web of life, the rhythm and range of life, and want to move through life with more self-trust while being their quirky selves.
““To say that working with Rhi has changed my life would probably be an understatement. She is an absolutely incredible human being - so kind, compassionate and open. She brought things out of me that I would never have thought possible. Together we have started on this most incredible journey that will eventually lead me home to myself, and I couldn't ask for a better person to be by my side along the way.”

What is a Somatic Exploration Journey?
It’s a body-led, nervous-system based, nature-inspired Somatic Coaching experience.
A space to explore what feels stuck and reshape your relationship to stress and being yourself - without bypassing the sticky, resistance stuff that comes up.
We’ll be weaving between the layers of the thinking mind, sensations, feelings, instincts, and memories through deep attunement and presence.
Not from a place of fixing or digging to find past stuff, but following what’s emerging and ready to be met. Nothing is prescriptive, everything is always invitational.
Why? Because when we slow down enough and give your body the space it’s been needing with compassionate presence and acknowledgment, that’s when deep change becomes possible.
With right support and conditions to land - the parts of you that have been hidden or held back can finally re-emerge and come alive.
What’s the other side of a few Somatic Exploration Journey sessions?
You won’t just perceive and respond in more coherent ways. You’ll feel different.
☀️ A more accepting and compassionate relationship with stress, self-doubt, uncomfortable emotions and uncertainty
☀️ More spaciousness and capacity to feel joy, ease, and be more of your full, weird, wonderful self
☀️ A deeper trust in your body’s cues, and your own rhythm, pace and process in riding the waves of life
☀️ More able to access stability (nervous system regulation), even when life feels chaotic or messy
☀️A deeper sense of wholeness, connection, and trust with yourself, nature and life itself
This isn’t about becoming someone you’re not.
It’s uncovering parts of you that have been hidden away, so you can live as yourself, not who you’ve been told to be.
“Rhi is a wonderfully warm and intuitive somatic practitioner and guided me into a very supportive somatic journey. I was able to access deep emotions that had felt stuck for some time and helped to me to access more clarity. Rhi's style is authentic and supportive and she leads her sessions with integrity.”
— Jannette, AUS
This is for the women who…
🌱 Feel deeply and know there’s more beneath the surface to unpack but this has often been dismissed as just a “mindset block”
🌱 Feel and sense your emotions and experiences deeply, but aren’t sure how to meet them, or fully trust or work with them
🌱 Are tired of shrinking, people-pleasing, overdoing, and letting stress run the show, because you know there are parts of you that know what you’re capable of and you want to have more fun in life
🌱 Feel like you’re at a crossroads or threshold, sensing change is near but craving clarity, confidence, and an embodied way forward
🌱 Want more ease, compassion, and gentleness in how you relate to yourself, stress and when life life’s
🌱 Are ready to welcome more magic, flow, aliveness and raw humanness into your life
“I really enjoyed working together with you as my coach. From the first session I felt like I could trust you,I felt safe to be me and so I was able to be vulnerable and open in my journey. Your words and non verbal communication and your spiritual energy has been a good match for me. The sessions were free and flowing and the energy I felt through and at the end of each session as I progressed through the program was that of acceptance and empowerment.”
— Ivana, UK
Practical Details
-
Somatics, at its core, is a return to the present moment and reconnecting to your body’s experience; not conceptually, but experientially as a lived experience.
You’ve probably noticed it—that tightness in your chest, a lump in your throat, a heaviness that won’t shift, a memory that flashes back, the feeling like something is weighing you down.
These feelings, sensations, images, and instincts are your body’s way of communicating with you.
Somatic Coaching helps you unravel what’s beneath those sensations and hear what your body is trying to say.
Somatic work is a remembering of our humanness, that our bodies are wise and mystical and know exactly how to heal and thrive (without our thoughts or conditioning getting in the way). Somatics is a weaving back into this natural intelligence and web of life.
Rather than staying in the mind or overanalyzing the story/challenge you’re bringing, Somatic Coaching gently invites you to slow down and listen to your body’s cues.
I’ve written a longer article about Somatics and Somatic Coaching - you can have a read of it here.

Every session is different, as it depends on what is alive and present for you and where your body wants to take us.
Somatics is a moment to moment process, where your body takes the lead in taking us where it wants to go.
Our sessions will likely have elements of:
Attuning and orienting to the present moment and your felt sense (feelings, sensations, images, impulses, instincts)
Co-creating the right conditions for your body’s natural intelligence to come online to explore, and somatically process undigested life experiences
Following your body’s lead
Allowing spaciousness for noticing, pausing, integration (‘awkward’ silences are part of the process)
Optional Reiki healing or Bush Flower Essences for extra energetic support (at an additional cost)
-
Navigating feeling burned out, anxious or stressed around work or career
Feeling lost in life and reconnecting with who you are and what makes you feel alive
Connecting to your intuition and your body’s wisdom
Building self trust and inner self confidence
Unravelling the feeling of being triggered or activated by a past situation/challenge
Reconnecting to your inner rhythms and cycles, living in connection with nature and feeling more grounded
Unwinding from urgency and hustle culture
Unburdening the feeling of shame of your pace of life or feeling behind in life
Processing past hurts, so you can feel more confident in being your true, authentic self
-
A single session can give you relief and insight - but deeper nervous system shifts needs spaciousness and ongoing support.
Somatic work works in layers, and each session builds on the last.
Depending on what you’re navigating, I generally recommend beginning with 3-6 sessions, spaced fortnightly to begin noticing subtle shifts in your life.
From there, we can adjust the frequency and flow based on what feels supportive for you and where you are at.
This work is slow, intentional, and body-led - which means we honour right pacing, rather than rushing the process.

About Rhi
I’m someone who’s always felt things deeply — emotions, subtle shifts. For a long time, I thought that made me “too sensitive” or “too emotional”. But over time, I’ve come to see it as one of my greatest strengths.
My work as a Somatic Space Holder and Reiki Master, is shaped by this sensitivity, as my quiet superpower. I’m a deep listener who’s intuitive yet present and grounded in reality.
I like to bridge the mystical, nature, witchy and spirituality realm with the practical — weaving together the softness of yin, the ability to zoom out and see the bigger picture to navigate modern life in a more attuned way.
My work draws from years of experience and training in somatic coaching, life coaching, meditation, yin yoga, sacred space holding, Reiki, and Australian Bush Flower Essences.
But more than that, it’s shaped by my lived experience. I know what it’s like to move through cycles of burnout, anxiety, impostor syndrome, feeling/being a bit different, and taking the unconventional path in life.
I hold space for women who are navigating transitional or tender seasons — not because they’re lost, but because they’re ready to live more fully. Those who are ready to cultivate inner steadiness, and move forwards with more presence and deeper trust in themselves and life itself.
