Somatic Release: Managing Anxiety and Finding Relief

Somatic release has been used as an intentional way to relieve stress and anxiety since the 1970s; however, it has become more popular over the last few years. Although there are mixed studies on the topic of somatic release, incorporating a practice such as this may help relieve stress, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It can also help to stretch out muscles and ease tension in the body.
