WHAT IS SOMATIC RESPIRATORY INTEGRATION™?

---

Somato Respiratory Integration (SRI) is designed to offer you new options in experiencing your body and your personal healing. It very name tells the story Somato (Body) Respiratory (Breathing) Integration (Bringing Together the TWO) tells the story. ISRI educates you to your body’s rhythms and inner wisdom through focused attention, gentle breath, movement and touch.

SRI is an at home tool that provides you with a means of placing your attention on your body in a way that works for your healing, empowerment and state of well being.  Somato Respiratory Integration exercises help the brain to reconnect with the body and its locked up experiences. The goal of SRI is to help an individual develop lifetime skills, safety, strength, wisdom and love in relationship to the experience of his/her body, its vibration, structure, and energy.

Through reconnecting a person’s breath, touch, focused movement and attention, they are able to experience the body more fully and instantly shift their state of consciousness to one that supports trust for a healthier body-mind and a more compassionate life experience.

This tool is a wonderful resource for shifting tension and perceptions, resulting in greater connection to ones peace, joy and allowing for wider ranges of  “authentic” human expression.  Somato Respiratory Integration was developed by Dr. Donald Epstein, and is based on the 12 Stages of Healing described in The Twelve Stages of Healing: A Network Approach to Wholeness. The Twelve Stages of Healing is available at our office or at your local bookstore.
