What is Somatic Channeling?

Somatic Channeling (Somchan for short) is just that: channeling with the body. It is also highly advanced energy work modality that triggers automatic movement and specific mudras/postures in the body. It is also a path of spiritual awakening and development. It is a sacred calling and a deep practice.

Somatic Channeling consists of 3 Levels:

Level 1: Self-work (working on one’s own energy field)

Level 2: Working on others (sensing & releasing blocks)

Level 3: Advanced telekinesis entrainment with others (one can precisely move the physical body without touch)

Somatic Channeling shares similarities with many practices, including but not limited to the Indian Pranic Healing method known as Prana Vidya, classical Tantra, Spinal Energetics, Reiki, acupuncture, and more.

The modality allows practitioners to sense, locate, and release blockages in their energetic body (chakras, nadis/meridians, auric layers) - which are usually the result of trauma, stress, or emotional repression. This often translates to somatic and emotional release, as well as healing in the physical body. We have helped clients relieve physical ailments like chronic shoulder pain, neck pain, and more. Somatic Channeling energy work has resulted in real change for clients and the undoing of emotional and habitual patterns.

How did Somatic Channeling come to be?

Somatic Channeling is a channeled energy work modality - fully received and honed through trance channeling by Taylor Bratches.

Taylor’s path as an energy worker began in 2016, after nearly 20 years of spiritual study, dance training, somatic work, and meditation - as well as a Kundalini awakening in 2009. After dancing for hours at an intentional dance party in the mountains in 2016, Taylor sat down to meditate. On a mountain rock outcropping, feeling open-hearted and surrendered, Taylor’s arms and hands began moving entirely on their own, guided by a potent energy that seemed to be beyond her conscious mind. This was the first time she channeled, and the first time the seeds of Somatic Channeling came through her body and field as a spontaneous form of awakening. In the years that followed, Taylor honed this ability on her own through intensive meditation practice, until she began to understand consciously how to work with the trance state, automatic movement, and her energy field.
