The Stiff & Tight Body Blueprint
A full-body practice in under 15 minutes to get you moving into your day, without stretching, foam rolling, or waiting half the day to loosen up.
Learn It Once, Use It Every Morning
Start by learning the movements one video at a time.
Once they feel familiar, use the full practice each morning. It takes under 15 minutes.
You can practice on the floor or on your bed. A thick or folded blanket on the floor adds comfort and support.

Common Questions
Do I need previous experience?
No experience needed. If you lie down to sleep, you've got this. Simple, gentle movements adaptable to every body.
Will I need to get down on the floor?
The routine is designed for the floor, but it's not a requirement. The firmer the surface, the easier it is for your brain to pick up feedback, so a thick or folded blanket on the floor works well. If getting down to the floor (and back up again) isn't realistic for you, your bed works too. Start there and see how it feels.
How often should I practice?
The routine is designed for first thing in the morning, to release the tension that builds up while you sleep. You can also use the movements throughout the day or before bed, whenever your body asks for it.
What if a movement feels uncomfortable?
Make the movement smaller and reduce the tendency to over-effort. You should never move into discomfort or push through pain. The beauty of somatics is that you can just imagine yourself doing the movement as you listen to the video or audio. Somatics works with muscular tension, but certain medical conditions may also underlie physical discomfort. If your discomfort continues, it's worth a conversation with your healthcare provider, if you haven't had one already.
