Tight in the Throat
Best for: throat tightness and held anxiety
This session works with the anxious tightening that settles in the throat, the narrow doorway between thinking and speaking that draws closed under stress. Through careful body-based attention, you'll learn to meet the held place without forcing it open. The practice uses gentle awareness and breath to invite release where the channel of words has gone tight. A grounding session for moments when feeling stuck or unable to speak.

Tender and reassuring, steady when things aren't, present and calm without ever overpromising.
