Yoga & somatic healing

When the body is in crisis, you don't need yoga.

You need a system that knows how to regulate itself.

About me

Welcome to Somatic Muse.

Hi. I'm Cat. Though I've been practicing yoga for over 13 years now, I'm not here to teach you "yoga to relax".

I've combined yoga techniques, somatic practices, guided journaling, as well as a long love for psychology and created Somatic Muse.

Somatic Muse is a project for people who've never known exactly how to be zen. Those high-functioning, fast-thinking individuals whose nervous system is slowly losing its rhythm. For those of us who've gone a little awry and are looking for something more meaningful than a temporary wellness hack. If that sounds like you, then you, my friend, I would like to know better.

Services

Executive Reset Flow™

Somatic Muse is NOT for everybody. It's for those experiencing a constant, inescapable tension in the body (particularly the shoulders, neck, and back). For those looking for more than a mere wellness hack. For those who struggle with shutting off the mental chatter, even when they could afford to.

It goes beyond musclework, into the nervous system

Unfortunately, many yoga classes today stop at asana, the physical plane. Not us. We work directly with the way your body indexes stress, pressure, responsibility. Flexibility's great and all, but it's not the main issue here. The main issue is your nervous system's constantly on high alert, and no one's helped you figure out the tools to get out of it.

100% adapted to your needs

You don't need 60 minutes a day, and you don't need the right mood to start. Together, we build short sequences that can be incorporated into your existing routine, without disrupting your schedule. We come up with solutions that truly work for you, and that you can use in any context (a stressful day, between meetings, or even before a call), not just on the mat.

Transcending the superficial

I'm not here to tell you to breathe and make it better. I'm here to help you understand why it doesn't get better. Where the tension tends to linger in the body, why you can't seem to ease the pressure, and how to get out of that.

I'm not taking you out of your rhythm; I'm helping maintain it

Let's be honest, many successful people don't want to slow down. And they shouldn't have to. I'm not here to force you into a break or to make you more zen. Rather, I'm here to support and help stabilize your nervous system so you can keep enjoying (and performing) life at your own pace.

Why Executive Reset Flow™?

I've designed Executive Reset Flow™ for those looking for:

  • a quick, sustainable nervous system reset (in minutes, not hours);
  • more clarity under high pressure;
  • a more available body (free of constant rigidity);
  • a method you can use by yourself, that doesn't keep you depending on the next class.

Aside from group classes in Bucharest, I also offer personalized 1:1 sessions (offline or online). Each session is built around your actual context, not on a generalized flow.
