What is Somatic Channeling?
In recent years, more people have begun awakening to the understanding that healing is not just mental. It is physical, emotional, energetic and spiritual. As the wellness world evolves beyond traditional self-help and talk therapy alone, modalities that involve the body, nervous system, energy field, and consciousness are becoming increasingly sought after.
One of these emerging modalities is Somatic Channeling.
Somatic Channeling is a deeply embodied form of enregy healing that combines involuntary movement, nervous system release, energetic healing, spiritual connection, and surrendered presence. Rather than leaving the body to access higher consciousness, Somatic Channeling invites us deeper into the body, allowing the body itself to become the channel.
At its core, Somatic Channeling is a practice of remembering.
Channeling Through the Body
The word “somatic” refers to the body. Traditional forms of channeling are often associated with receiving intuitive messages, spiritual insight, or guidance from beyond the physical realm. Somatic Channeling differs because the body itself becomes the instrument through which healing, movement, emotional release and energetic transmission occur.
During a Somatic Channeling session, spontaneous movements, mudras, breath changes, emotional releases, energetic sensations, or altered states of awareness may naturally arise. These movements are not forced or consciously performed. Instead, they emerge through surrender, trust, and the body’s innate intelligence.
The practice allows the nervous system and energetic body to unwind layers of stored tension, emotional holding, trauma, stress and energetic stagnation.
For many people, it feels less like “doing” and more like allowing.
Healing Through the Nervous System
One of the reasons Somatic Channeling can feel so profound is because it works directly with the body and nervous system.
Many people today live in chronic stress, over thinking, emotional suppression, burnout, anxiety, or disconnection from the body. The nervous system often becomes overwhelmed from years of survival mode, unresolved trauma , emotionl pain, or overstimulation.
Somatic practices help bring safety back into the body.
In Somatic Channeling, healing occurs not only through energy works, but through allowing the body to complete emotional and energetic processes that may have remained stuck for years.
Clients often report experiences such as:
emotional release
deep peace
spontaneous movement
nervous system relaxation
feelings of expansion
reconnecting to intuition
greater embodiment
physical relief from stored tension
spiritual awakening experiences
Every session is unique because every body hold a different story.
The Origins of Somatic Channeling
Somatic Channeling as a distinct modality was first received and developed by Taylor Bratches in 2016.
According to Taylor, the modality first emerged spontaneously during a deep spiritual and energetic experience in Colorado, where involuntary yogic movements and energetic clearing began moving through her body naturally. Over the following years, she devoted herself to meditation, energetic practice, embodiment work, and spiritual development, eventually refining Somatic Channeling into a structured healing modality and practitioner path. Today, Somatic Channeling continues to evolve as both a healing modality and a spirital path rooted in surrender, embodiment, nervous system healing , energetic awareness, and awakening consciousness.
Somatic Channeling and Spiritual Awakening
For many individuals , Somatic Channeling becomes more than just an energy healing session.
It can become a doorway into deeper self awareness, intuition, embodiment , emotional healing , and spritutal awakening.
As layers of tension, trauma, emotional repression, an energetic density begin to release from the system, many people report feeling:
more connected to themselves
more emotionally open
more grounded
more intuitive
more present in their bodies
more connected to life itself
more connected to their higher self and Infinite Source Consciousness
Somatic Channeling reminds us that the body is not separate from spirituality. The body is part of the awakening.
What Happens During a Session?
Sessions may include:
energetic healing
intuitive guidance
spontaneous movement
sound
breathwork
emotional release
nervous system regulation
meditation
grounding practices
clearing of the system
expansion of the field
feelings of oneness
connections to guides/spirit teams/loved ones
Some people experience subtle energetic shifts , while others experience deep emotional or physical release.
The goal is presence, safety, surrender, and allowing the body’s intelligence to guide the healing process, as well as Source.

Why Kundalini Yoga Became a Non-Negotiable Practice in My Life.
It All Begins Here
There are certain practices that become more than just a wellness routine, they become part of who you are. For me, Kundalini Yoga is one of those practices. It is something I rarely ever miss, because of how deeply it supports me mentally, emotionally, physically, and energetically. What began as a yoga practice slowly became one of the greatest acts of self love I have ever given myself.
Kundalini Yoga has a way of burning me back to myself. In a world that constantly pulls our energy outward, this practice reconnects me inward. Through breathwork, movement, meditation, and mantra, I leave each class feeling energized, clear, balanced, and deeply grounded within my own body. If helps me clear mental fog, regulate my nervous system, and create more harmony within my energetic field.
One of the things I love most about Kundalini Yoga is that it doesn’t just create peace, it also awakens life force energy within you. It reminds you that there is power, vitality, intuition, and healing already loving inside your body. The practice activates something ancient and alive within the soul while simultaneously creating deep inner stillness.
There is a reason Kundalini is often called the “yoga of awareness.” It strenthens your connection to yourself, your intuition, and your ability to move through life with more presence and clarity. Every time I practice, I feel more aligned, more open-hearted, and more connected to my own truth.
I truly believe everyone can benefit from Kundalini Yoga. Whether you are seeking peace, emotional healing, more energy, spiritual connection, or simply a deeper relationship with yourself, this practice has the power to transform your world in the most beautiful way.
For me, Kundalini Yoga is not just exercise. It is medicine, it’s devotion, an dit’s a sacred return back home to myself.
Sedona, Synchronicity & The Quantum Leap of the Soul
It All Begins Here
There are certain places on Earth that feel alive. Places where the veil feels thinner. Where time bends. Where your soul remembers itself. For me, that place was Sedona.
This past April (2026), I travelled to Sedona expecting beauty, bonding with friends and expansion, but what unfolded was something far beyond a vacation. It became a deeply activating spiritual trip filled with synchronitcites, quantum shifts, divine encounters, and moments that honestly felt orchestrated by Source itself.
Everywhere I turned , the universe was speaking. The right people appeared at the exact right moment. Conversations mirrored thoughts I had only whispered internally, or shared with my friend Verushka. Messages came through Nature (lots of birds - crows, hawks, it was wild), dreams, strangers, symbols and sensations through my body. Sedona did not feel like , simply a vacation. Sedona felt like a portal.
A portal to higher timelines!!
One of the most profound moments happened at Airport Mesa, a place known for its powerful vortex. During a spontaneous group channeling session, something within me opened wider than ever before. The energy moving through my body was indescribable. It felt blissful, electric, ancient, loving, and limitless all at once.
As I began channeling for the group, I could feel waves of Source Intelligence pouring through me. Time disappeared. My mind disappeared. There was only energy, truth and activation.
I’ve spoken before about how we are not stuck in one fixed reality, that we are constantly shifting through frequencies based on our embodiment, our nervous system, our choices, and our alignment with our authentic self. The quantum field responds when we fully open ourselves to possibilities. Sedona amplified that truth in me.
And, in that moment, I knew, I would definitely return. Which is why I am beyond excited to officially announce our Luxury Sedona Get Away, … April 2027.
This experience is being intentionally curated as a deeply transformational and luxurious energetic immersion for those ready to expand into a new timeline of self, abundance, embodiment, healing and spiritual awakening.
We will be staying in a breathtaking luxury home surrounded by Sedona’s majestic red rocks, complete with a heated pool, sacred spaces to gather - like a beautiful fire pit with the most majestic view of Sedona, or a teepee meditation area beneath the desert sky- to name a few.
This luxury get away will include:
A private chef - one meal per day
One hour sound bath immersion, led by a local Sedona facilitator
Group spinal energetics session led by Jenn Ryan and Verushka Del Rio
Group Somatic Channeling session at Airport Mesa, led by Jenn Ryan
Meditation & Cacao Ceremony
Manifestation & Abundance ritual at one of the Sedona Vortexes
Sacred connections, rest, luxury & laughter :)
Sedona changed something within me forever, and now, I feel deeply called to share it with others who are ready to receive.
Without any marketing, as of yet, 4 beds are spoken for… and only 5 remain. Will you be one of those 5? Your next timeline may already be calling you…
