Somatic Intelligence
Personal Growth and Adventure
“The Power of Somatic Intelligence came to life out of a quest I started at the age of 20 to find my true self. I was buried under a lot of layers of expectations and broken from the childhood I grew up in, next to a mentally ill mom.” - CHEN LIZRA
The Power of Somatic Intelligence came to life out of a quest Chen started at the age of 20 to find her true self. Chen was buried under a lot of layers of expectations and broken from the childhood she grew up in, next to a mentally ill mom.
This quest led Chen to many continents and countries – studying Zen Buddhism in an old traditional dojo in Japan, attending a silent Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Canada, studying bodywork such as Capoeira, Kyokushin Karate, Samba, 5 Rhythms, Contact Improvisation, and Lindy Hop and Swing.
Chen spent a lot of time in nature in Canada, Australia and Cuba connecting with our natural flow. She got to explore and attend courses, personal sessions and lectures in different disciplines such as Laban Movement Analysis, Internal Family System Therapy, Landmark Education, Embodiment, Somatic Awareness, cognitive coaching and more.
Each part of this journey gave Chen unique tools and insights which she incorporated into the Power of Somatic Intelligence. The most impactful tool on her soma (body), on her mental health, and ultimately on her success, were the practical tools she gained in Cuba.
Since Cuban society was still living in the past, Chen could take a time machine back each time, and see how we used to live and the benefits we got out of this lifestyle. What She discovered was that the daily body language we had, used to release endorphins, dopamine and oxytocin in the body, as we were walking, talking etc., affecting our sense of happiness and satisfaction. Not only, but this knowledge had the power to heal traumas as well.
As the Western world got busy with technology and started running at an extremely fast pace in order to succeed, we disconnected from the natural rhythm of the body, getting addicted to the pace of the race. We started living more and more out of our heads, using tons of words, thinking too much and not feeling enough.
The 5 elements of Somatic Intelligence allow us to bring back what we’ve lost due to our current daily lifestyle, and show us what changes we need to implement into our daily practices in order to embody and ingrain these changes, reaching our optimal way of life.
For the longest time Chen felt like she had stumbled upon an incredible human treasure. That if she could just have people around the world experience these magical feelings, they would not want to live in any other way. We could all live a much happier, more connected, balanced and fulfilled life, while being part of a strong community supporting this lifestyle.
The Power of Somatic Intelligence is her way of sharing this gift with all of you and rooting for this to become our new status quo.
TED TALK-The Power of Seduction in Everyday Life
Everyone has the power to seduce in them, no matter who you are; you just need to unleash it. Seduction is a powerful life skill that needs to be taught from a very young age in order to help us become a lot more successful in life. For seduction to turn into a positive skill set we need to shift the misconceptions associated with it, and to understand that who we are in our DNA makes the decision of how to use this power. Seduction is about keeping the 'maybe' alive; it's the skill of presenting potential possibilities and then fueling them with desire. When there is real desire, even if it’s hidden, it’s possible to lure it out, but to do so you really have to get what the other side needs, and then give it to them. When done right, it’s virtually impossible to say ‘no’ to!
Seduction can also be used in business, marketing, meetings, sales, and other interactions, but it looks very different than personal seduction. Seduction is not a science but an art. It can be taught, but to gain full self-expression of it, you need to spend time to master it and to make it your own. The power of seduction leads to self-confidence, and self-confidence leads to success in all areas of life - personal and business. Master seduction and you could have anything that you want in life...
