Living in daylight
with Mary Underwood, PhD
Daylight is living your day with more agency over worries, reactions, patterns of thinking, and relating. Through somatic brain integration, I support specific areas of the brain in becoming more differentiated and more integrated—so optimal cognitive processing, steadier emotional regulation, and greater coordination and physical ease can become more available. Private sessions are live, in person or online.
About the work
The work is somatic brain integration. I support specific areas of the brain in becoming more differentiated and better linked so the mind and body can work more optimally. People come for physical pain, learning difficulties, memory, emotional stress, coordination challenges, and patterns of thinking and being that keep taking over their days and getting in the way of what they want. Some also notice greater ease with others — more capacity to cooperate, take in another perspective, and problem-solve. The work can reduce muscle tension and support greater physical ease, including through muscle reactivation. I also work with children in person on learning, sensory processing, and emotional regulation.
In a private session I work one to one with you. You rest. Depending on what we are integrating, you may stay quiet, or you may share what you notice if you wish. There may be light contact in the form of acupressure. This is not talk therapy, and it is not a method you have to learn.
"When Mary works with me, something shifts in a way that is hard to put into words. It is as if I am re-set, re-centered, and re-focused."
