Movement is beneficial for both physical and mental health. When we move, we increase our muscular strength, coordination, and mobility.  At the same time, we decrease muscular tension.  In general, it can help you reduce stress, increase mood management, and improve self-confidence and self-esteem.

When we exercise our bodies, serotonin (the “feel good” hormone that makes you feel content) is released and encourages us to experience our movements without judgment.  Movement Therapies are a wonderful way of learning to pay attention to the senses, both inside and out.  As well as teaching an alternative way to express emotions. This is very helpful when processing trauma and other uncomfortable issues that are imprinted in our minds and, as a result, experienced in our bodies and nervous systems.
