SomaShift: Embodied Evolution
Attune to Your Body, Transform Your Life.
Rewire your nervous system for radical Self-Love
Welcome to SomaShift—where your body’s wisdom leads the way. I’m Angela Rivero, a Somatic Practitioner dedicated to helping women regulate their nervous systems, reconnect with their bodies, and reclaim a sense of ease, confidence, and vitality. Through somatic healing, embodied movement, and nervous system attunement, I guide you toward deep, lasting transformation—beyond mindset work and into the wisdom of your body.
SomaShift: Embodied Evolution
Reconnect. Regulate. Thrive.
Your body holds the story of your life—every joy, every challenge, every moment of disconnection. When we don’t feel safe in our own skin, it can show up as exhaustion, chronic symptoms, anxiety, or struggles with intimacy. But healing isn’t about fixing what’s “wrong.” It’s about returning to yourself with care, presence, and attunement.
I guide women through somatic healing, nervous system recalibration, and embodied confidence—helping you listen to your body’s wisdom and shift from survival to thriving.
This work is for you if:
-
You feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, depletion, or disconnection.
-
You’ve tried mindset work or talk therapy but still feel something missing.
-
You want to feel more at home in your body, your relationships, and your life.
Healing isn’t about doing more. It’s about listening differently.

Why Clients Seek My Work
Women come to me when they feel stuck in patterns they can’t think their way out of. They’ve tried talk therapy, mindset work, or self-help strategies, but something still feels off. Their bodies hold tension, exhaustion, or discomfort that won’t go away, no matter how much they “understand” the issue.
Here are the top reasons women seek my support:
-
Chronic Stress & Anxiety – You feel constantly on edge, overwhelmed, or exhausted, even when life is going well.
-
Burnout & Nervous System Dysregulation – You’re tired of pushing through, and your body is telling you it can’t keep up.
-
Intimacy & Embodiment Struggles – You feel disconnected from pleasure, struggle with intimacy, or want to feel more at home in your body.
-
Unresolved Trauma & Emotional Patterns – Past experiences still show up in your reactions, relationships, and body, even if you don’t fully understand why.
-
Physical Symptoms Without Clear Answers – Chronic pain, autoimmune issues, digestive problems, or tension that doctors can’t explain.
-
Fawning & People-Pleasing – You struggle to say no, overextend yourself, or feel like you lose yourself in relationships.
-
Feeling Disconnected from Yourself – You want to trust yourself, but you often second-guess your feelings, needs, or desires.
-
Overthinking & Hypervigilance – Your mind is always racing, and it’s hard to truly relax.
-
Perfectionism & High-Functioning Anxiety – You hold yourself to impossible standards and struggle to rest without guilt.
-
Desire for Deeper Healing – You sense there’s more to healing than just talking about it—you want to feel different in your body and life.

What Is Body-Mind Connection Work?
Your body and mind aren’t separate. When something feels overwhelming, unsafe, or unresolved, your nervous system holds onto it—sometimes in the form of tension, anxiety, numbness, or even physical symptoms.
Somatic (body-based) healing works by helping you reconnect with your body’s signals, process stored stress, and shift out of survival mode. Instead of just analyzing your experiences, we work with how they live in your body, so you can feel safer, more present, and more alive.
​
Why This Works (When Other Approaches Haven’t)
Most healing approaches focus on changing thoughts—but if your body still feels unsafe, your nervous system won’t fully let go. Somatic work is different because it:
✔ Works with the Body’s Natural Healing Process – Instead of forcing change, we gently guide your nervous system back to regulation.
✔ Goes Beyond Talk Therapy – Understanding your patterns isn’t enough if your body still feels stuck in them.
✔ Addresses the Root Cause – Many issues (stress, intimacy struggles, burnout) are nervous system issues, not just mindset problems.
✔ Helps You Feel Safe & Connected in Your Body – True healing happens when your body trusts that it’s safe to relax, feel, and connect.
How This Approach Works
Instead of manipulating your body, I guide you to tune into your internal sensations, emotions, and nervous system patterns—helping you shift from survival mode into a place of deeper self-trust and regulation.
For example:
-
We might explore how your body responds to stress or certain situations.
-
You’ll learn to recognize your body’s signals for boundaries, desires, and needs.
-
I’ll help you shift patterns like people-pleasing or overextending yourself by working with your body’s cues.
This isn’t bodywork—it’s learning to hear, trust, and respond to your body’s wisdom so that change feels aligned and sustainable.
For clients who meet with me in person, I may incorporate gentle touch work if it feels supportive and aligned with your goals. This might include placing hands on areas like your shoulders, back, or abdomen (with your consent) to help regulate your nervous system, release tension, or deepen your connection to your body.
If you’ve tried talk therapy or mindset work but still feel stuck, this approach helps you go deeper—addressing the patterns stored in your body and nervous system for lasting transformation.
​
How This Approach Is Different from Talk Therapy & Mindset Work
Many healing approaches focus on either changing thoughts (mindset work) or analyzing experiences (talk therapy)—but if your body still feels stuck in old patterns, true transformation can be difficult.
My approach is different because it works with the body and nervous system, not just the mind.
Talk Therapy & Mindset Work
✔ Helps you understand your emotions and patterns.
✔ Focuses on reframing thoughts and gaining insight.
✔ Can be helpful for processing experiences and setting goals.
But… insight alone doesn’t always lead to change. If your nervous system still feels unsafe or dysregulated, it can be hard to shift patterns on a deep level.
A Somatic, Body-Based Approach
✔ Works with how stress, trauma, and emotions are stored in the body.
✔ Helps you regulate your nervous system so change feels natural, not forced.
✔ Focuses on feeling different, not just thinking differently.
For example, you might know you need boundaries, but if your body associates saying “no” with fear or rejection, setting them will feel impossible. Somatic work helps you rewire that response at the nervous system level, so boundaries feel safe and natural.
This approach is especially effective if you’ve tried talk therapy or coaching but still feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself. By working with your body’s cues, emotions, and nervous system, we create change that lasts.
​
We all carry our experiences—joys, traumas, fears, and desires—within our bodies, shaping how we feel, react, and move through the world. That’s why we can’t talk our way to healing; we must include the body to truly release and transform these stored patterns.
​
Specializing in Women's Wellness
At SomaShift, we focus exclusively on supporting women in their journey toward holistic health and empowerment. Our programs are tailored to meet the unique needs of women, helping them reconnect with their bodies, rediscover their power, and achieve profound transformation through specialized somatic practices.
​
I believe in transparency—especially when it comes to pricing. In the coaching and healing world, clear and upfront pricing is often missing, which is not trauma-informed. Everyone deserves to make informed decisions without pressure or uncertainty.
You can work with me: 10 sessions (60 minutes each) for $1,995. Payment plans are available.
​
Why 10 Sessions?
Healing and transformation take time. 10 sessions give you a real experience of this work—enough time to understand what it is, feel the shifts in your body and nervous system, and integrate the changes into your daily life.
​
People often ask me, How many sessions will I need? The truth is, I can’t give you a set number. Everyone comes in with different histories, trauma, and goals. What I do know is that this work is felt—it’s different from just talking about things. It’s not about convincing yourself of change; it’s about experiencing the shifts, understanding why things haven’t changed before, and finally feeling what’s possible.
This isn’t about quick fixes; it’s about deep, sustainable transformation. Through these sessions, you’ll learn to recognize your body’s signals, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect with your authentic self in a way that lasts.
