In SOS, you learn how to step out of the chronic stress loop in 6 modules, combining theory & practice.

#1 Neuroscience 101: intro to the science of stress

Theory: Learn how stress affects your body and locks you in the chronic stress loop. Understand which systems & senses will support you in stepping out and rebalance.
Practice: The first somatic practice is about grounding and simple, but effective breathing techniques. We lay the foundation to rebalance and sneak peek into next modules’ somatics.
#2 The brain: caught in the chronic stress loop

Theory: We take a closer look at how chronic stress affects the brain, what neuroplasticity is about, how to set smarter goals and why mental equilibrium is the golden nugget.
Practice: Declutter your mind through intention setting, journaling & the manifesto method. We practice a balancing breathing technique and our first meditation, to concentrate the mind.
#3 The nervous system: key to self-regulation

Theory: Understand your operating system and why it's key to self-regulation. Learn how to strengthen your sense of interoception. You slowly widen your window of tolerance towards resilience.
Practice: You map your nervous system states, from a mental and physical perspective. Learn one of the best tools to level up interoceptive awareness & body intelligence.
#4 The skeletal system: posture keeps your secrets

Theory: Posture reflects your lifestyle and state of being. Find out what limits you based on your posture, deepen your sense of proprioception. Better alignment will improve your sense of balance and prevent chronic pain.
Practice: You will uncover postural patterns within the nervous system states. We practice Yoga Mesh blending elements of yogasana with functional training to improve your stability, breathing and muscle activation.
#5 The fascial system: release deep-seated stress

Theory: Fascia is a key facilitator in the body-mind communication. By working with our fascia, we work with our autonomic nervous system. We zoom into the latest research and learn how to release deep-seated stress.
Practice: Chronic stress stiffens fascia leading to sensitive receptors. Myofascial release rehydrates and resets the sensory memory in the hardened connective tissue. By releasing tension from the tissue, we reduce stress levels.
#6 Balance the systems with structure & ease

Theory: You complete the body-mind-framework and understand how the bodily systems interplay. You have the tools to break the chronic stress loop, maximise time in homeostasis and rebalance sustainably.
Practice: In the second Yoga Mesh session we strengthen the foundation, further improve posture while cultivating ease and balance. Your body intelligence is upgraded by the blend of knowledge, awareness & somatic practice.

Kind words from kind clients

"I recently attended the online "To the roots of chronic stress" workshop led by Charlotte, and it was a fantastic experience - the workshop struck a perfect balance between theory and practical exercises, making it easy to follow and engaging. Charlotte was flexible, adapting the session to the participants' needs and always happy to answer questions. Highly recommended!"

Ema Kumi
"Charlotte held a very informative session through a unique approach: neuroscience combined with practical strategies to manage stress. I appreciated the supportive atmosphere that encouraged open sharing and learning. The tools I gained have helped me better understand my body's reactions and ways of working and thus build resilience. I left feeling empowered and equipped to handle stress more effectively in my daily life. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone looking to improve their mental well-being."

Diana Sánchez Santamaría
"If you’re stressed, battling burnout or just want to improve your overall well-being, I recommend working with Charlotte. She has a lot of practical tools and exercises that are easy to implement in your daily life. What I loved about her work is that she provides an in depth picture of how your body and mind are connected that’s also easy to digest. After a session with Charlotte I feel much more present and aligned."

Leannah Lumauig-Mittag
"THE BODY MINDSET helped me to better understand the way my body and mind are interconnected. More than that it gave me tools to introduce in my day-to-day life and bring more consciousness to my posture, my breathing and the way my body responds to external stimulus. I definitely recommend it if you want to improve the way you live!"

Ana Fonseca, Ajita Studio
“I had the pleasure to collaborate with Charlotte for a 4-weeks series. Charlotte kicked off each session with a deep-dive into one of the main THE BODY MINDSET topics. She has a very structured and clear way of sharing her knowledge. Despite the limited time available, Charlotte managed to provide the group with a very insightful understanding, touch upon key elements and integrate practical tools. Besides the extensive knowledge she has, you could also really feel the passion she has for her work.”
