Body Feel
– A Practice of Embodied Presence
Many traditional wellness practices teach us to move with intention and listen to the body’s subtle messages. Disciplines like Iyengar or Yin Yoga, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, slow dancing movement, and Pilates help us cultivate body awareness, calm, and grounding.
Born from years of in-person practice inspired by these modalities, Body Feel is a unique somatic experience designed to deepen awareness and support the simple joy of being in your body. Body feel connects beautifully with 9 steps to inner peace addressing the Prioritizing your needs and connection to body steps.
What is Body Feel?
Body Feel blends mindful movement and conscious attention.
It weaves together:
- Yin Yoga: softening, using gravity, not pushing
- Qi Gong: precision in foot placement and connection with Earth
- Pilates: awareness of core and pelvic activation
- Gentle stretching: especially through the hips
- Slow expressive movement inspired by dance
Through guided awareness and subtle exploration, Body Feel invites you to notice how micro-movements and energetic shifts affect your breath, ease, and alignment.
Principles of Body Feel
- Let Be
Begin with simple noticing. What do you feel in your body right now?
We welcome whatever arises — sensation, emotion, or quiet — without forcing change.
- Stay Connected to Earth
Ground through your feet. Notice if your toes lift or if your weight falls to the inner or outer edge.
Readjust to connect through the whole sole.
- Precision
Small changes can bring big shifts. Tune into micro-movements and feel how they shape your comfort, alignment, and breath.
We practice underdoing — less effort, more awareness.
- Gentleness
Move with ease. Notice when you strain and return to softness. We cultivate effortless effort — strength without tension.
- Letting Go
Become aware of where you hold on. Set the intention to release unnecessary tension and allow the body to unwind.
Why Body Feel?
Body Feel is a compassionate way to:
- Deepen body awareness
- Improve balance and alignment
- Reconnect with grounding and presence
- Release tension, especially through the hips
- Experience movement as pleasure
- Feel more energized, calm, and at home in yourself
Whether you are new to somatic practices or have years of experience, Body Feel welcomes all bodies.

Each session touches me differently, always in sync with what my body and soul require. Thank you, Barbara, for creating such a unique space!”
— Olga
“I loved taking a break from my mind — observing my body and allowing what wanted to happen… to happen.
I felt happy to move, listen to music, follow your guidance or explore my own flow.
The experience is deeply different when being led, and also when sharing movement with others.
I wanted to land in my body, and it worked — helping me feel grounded and ready for new beginnings.”
