Our Vision
A Welcome from Our Host
The MindBody Therapy Summit is dedicated to shifting the paradigm around how we know and experience ourselves and others, and how we understand the nature of relationship.
It’s about shifting you, the individual, as the expert in your own journey of healing, transformation, and wellbeing.
MindBody Therapy blends traditional wisdom and embodiment practices with contemporary neuroscience and psychology, supporting healing and transformation while working with every aspect of you.
Through methodologies such as Somatic Experiencing®, Hakomi, Body-Mind Centering®, Gestalt, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Integral Somatic Psychology, and many other body-oriented approaches to psychology, we hope to contribute to a fuller, more nuanced picture of consciousness as necessarily embodied and relational.
This conversation and exploration don’t end with the Summit. Our hope is that the Summit is itself an invitation for all of us to challenge how we’ve conceptualized and divided mind/body/spirit, and how we might begin to reimagine ourselves, others and the world we live in.
We welcome you on this journey.
In Love,
Scott Lyons

What is embodiment and somatics?
Embodiment and somatics are interchangeable words in the field of psychology. Soma means the body while somatics refers to listening and being in dialogue with the living body.
The first way we experience the world is through sensing our whole body. It’s the most primal form of inner communication that directs all thought, feeling, and action. Soma means “the living body” and somatics refers to practices of being in dialogue with the living body. We explore these practices as a means to embody. To embody, means to manifest – to make visible, tangible, and real. Embodiment is a process of realizing each aspect of our self- feeling and experiencing its connection to the whole. As the unapologetic expression of that full self, embodiment can be understood as the antithesis of oppression.
We acknowledge that beneath the umbrella of the term “embodiment” are practices belonging to ancient lineages and traditions that have been appropriated by Western models. We are actively working to illuminate the origins of these practices as part of our commitment.
Through this summit we hope to make embodiment, somatics, and fundamental learnings in these domains accessible to a broad, global audience— making it easier to access supports for everyone in their embodiment journey.
Are you ready to actualise your full potential using movement, sensation and breath to discover your truest self?
You are welcome here.
As we dive into the depths of who and how you are during this 5-day summit, it is instrumental to know that you belong; that there are adventures waiting for you on your path to a more fulfilled existence; that you have a like-minded and nurturing community who will support your experience; that you are exactly where you’re meant to be.
Our objective is to create a safe and supportive collective space for the embodiment community to learn from one another, deepen their learning together, and easily find pathways of learning and certification to meet their personal and professional goals.
What is Embodied Psychology?
While traditional therapy focuses on verbal processing and cognitive meaning making, Embodied Psychology invites the individual or group into the wisdom of their body as the intuitive place of healing and well-being.
MindBody Therapy guides you back to this first language of communication in order to bring more on your inner processes, needs, feelings, and desires into the light of awareness and well-being.
MindBody Therapy is the process of connecting and inhabiting yourself fully. Traditionally, psychology is the discovery of what comprises the mind. An embodied approach to healing recognizes that the mind is not isolated to any particular place in the human body, but rather represents the way in which all of your biological processes, beliefs, thoughts, and interactions have organized into a unique and unprecedented way of being. One that is uniquely you.
MindBody Therapy offers a paradigm shift, situating the individual as the expert of their own journey of healing, transformation, and well-being.
Coming into contact with the felt experience of the matrix of your own unique identity enables you to feel a deeper sense of meaning, clarity, alignment, and a safe sense of home within your body.
MindBody Therapy recognizes that every cell, every physiological process, and every exchange you have are part of your psychology. We explore the mutual, reciprocal, self-regulating and self-organizing relationship of body (being) and culture, relationships, and the environment.
