"You do not need to be good. You do not need to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves." - Mary Oliver

 

"Jamie's approach includes a skillful blend of improvisational play with a fully developed, theoretically sound methodology. His knowledge is extensive, cross-disciplinary, and grounded in personal experience. Jamie is highly skilled in tracking and responding therapeutically to both individual and group needs; he does so with humor, generosity, and a deeply embodied and compassionate presence. The Somatic Expression practices have brought me greater creative freedom, joy and ease within my body, and a sense of connection to the earth." – Ashley, Somatic Movement Therapist

 

 

Individual Ecosomatic Retreats

Return to your nature in nature

Personal individualized retreats are for people who want to get away from their daily lives and dive more deeply into their nature without going to a group workshop. The natural environment provides the perfect setting for slowing down, opening up your senses, and re-calibrating your inner rhythm. Click here to read more.

Individual retreats are held in the hills of Western Massachusetts near the Vermont border

Each retreat is personally tailored to meet your individual needs and intentions, with many options available. Whether dedicating several days or a week to this environment, these retreats offer an opportunity to return to your nature in nature, and regenerate your soma and psyche. The retreat time has been especially beneficial for people undergoing major transitions and life changes.
