DWELL IN THE FLOW OF LIFE
NAIO is a holistic life awareness process that uses somatic education principles to support a greater sense of well-being and connection with life.
Cultivate a deeper relationship with your body & life.
NAIO™ supports embodied awareness of the life process. It is a holistic awareness approach to well-being based on the practitioner’s soft, listening, attuned gentle touch and awareness that support the client to experience themselves in new, non-habitual and creative ways.
NAIO™ can induce deep relaxation and settle the nervous system, a by-product can be
the resolution of imbalances. Over time a deepening ability can emerge for better
self-regulation and resilience for life’s challenges. Through experiential awareness
it introduces new ways of sensing, feeling,
and relating.
