This Summer my athletic and at times goofy brother got me tuned into watching the awkwardly funny, aka corny, yet surprisingly clever Ted Lasso and his show.

It pulled us in like a happy hour at the end of the day!

We binged 3-seasons of the show that follows the funny characters making up the AFC Richmond team as they navigate their loosing streaks. We keep on wondering: will Ted ever be able to break the spell!!??

I never would have thought that I would have gotten so into a show about soccer, but I did. Cried! Yelled. Exclaimed.

They got my heart and mind with how interesting all the charaters were. How they were all charicatures but had alse been granted great depth and complexity by their creators. They were even given the power to transform themselves, always surprising us with the next twist in the plot. Did he actually go from cocky to sensitive? Wasn’t expecting that!

Watching this series, I was reminded how colourful “somatic archetypes” can be—meaning all the quirks we take on to protect the parts of ourselves that got hurt. What I loved about Ted Lasso’s crew was that they each had these quirks.

Ted Lasso, the emotionally perky Coach that crossed the Atlantic, always kind, always the higher holding good guy, always on the move, always spinning jokes to not feel his heartbreak, on the other side of the Atlantic.

The two-toned angry and reactive Roy Kent, that actually has a really tender heart, armed up and protecting himself to feel safe emotionally, and pushing his girlfriend away out of fear that she will out grow him, even if he truly loves her. With his relentless Fuuuuuucks….

The somewhat numb and emotionally flat Coach Beard that choses the crazy emotional wreck as his girlfriend because it is exciting.

The iconoclast wealthy Rebecca who controls all her emotions and expression and keeps her true vulnerability at bay, and intimate relationships as well.

Some reflections one what we have been up to!

I am loving our online somatic journey into Slow S*x. It is one of those deep and potent themes that is so revealing of “us,” where we are, what we are holding, what we have been dealing with for so long! I love the authenticity and the self-perception that this theme fast-tracks!

Recently, we have facilitated two in person Organizing Field™ workshops to support people with chronic conditions and problems. We have been playing with offering a group experience for this work and experimenting with groups of 6 people. We have been loving seeing the depth of the work emerge as we enter deeply into the intelligence of our bodies and the intelligence of the conscious field. Remarkable what this facilitates, what wisdom emerges, what bodies reveal, and taking the time to give the biology what it needs.

We are also working on-goingly with clients on themes that include everything from anxiety attacks, overwhelm, disconnect from the body, relearning boundaries, cancer patient support, re-learning to feel to better process, supporting the biology, moving beyond isolation, chronic fatigue, lack of support, toxic relationships, reclaiming one’s voice and power, accessing one’s vulnerability, being heard, transforming insecurity in relationships… Here we get to see how illness, chronic conditions deeply intersect with intimacy, emotions, and how well we can digest life as it comes, what is still yet to digest, and what remains undigested to-date.

If you know anyone going through hardship, please send them our way. Supporting them is what we are about!

With love, Julie

What if s€x really slowed down—what would happen?

What if s€x was more about connection than or**sm?

Or, what if, perhaps, an expanded version of or**sm came out of connection?

What if slowing down allowed for a whole new level of spiritual awareness and experience?

What issues would resolve by slowing down?

Let me be upfront: In my experience, slowing down is not always easy. It requires us to really cultivate presence “INSIDE” the body and “WITH” our partner.

That takes a whole lot of presence.

Presence “IN” the body can be a steep learning curve.

This is why in our “Slow S€x Book Study” program, we have included somatic exercises to enhance our capacity for presence and embodiment.

It is also fair to say that sometimes we have developed “adaptations” to survive the world.

This could include unconsciously avoiding “BEING” in the body.

This is why, as part of the “Slow S€x Book Study”, both Shawn and I, as trained Psychosomatic practitioners, offer you ONE COMPLIMENTARY psychosomatic + Organizing Field™ session.

This is to support you in starting to discover where you are at in relationship to your body.

Here, we help you develop an even deeper connection with your own SOMA, your body, and the wisdom and information it is carrying for you—sometimes unconsciously.

Developing a deeper connection to this, essentially, allows you to find a better relationship to self, which allows you to ultimately connect with your partner in a meaningful way.

This is my last POST about this program that STARTS on the 13th of September. If you are interested to joining our beautiful and quality group of lovely souls, you have a last chance to sign up.

Couples Co. founder and owner, Nathasha Beaulieu has written such a beautiful article about her experience with my psychosomatic work on her company’s blog. Feeling blessed! Thank you!

Natasha’s forward thinking and holistic online s*x toy company—Couple Co.—deeply values education and relational depth in her business model and vision. You can see by how she explains her session, how aware and connected she is to a bigger vision of connection and s*xuality, her commitment to loving and successful relationships, and to the awareness of how easy it is to NOT be in our bodies. She really gets the importance of being present in one’s body to make connection possible with another person.

« Here’s the piece that ties directly back to everything we talk about on this blog: you cannot be fully present with a partner if you’re not fully present in your own body. So much of what gets in the way of real intimacy — disconnection, numbness, the sense of going through the motions — traces back to exactly this: a body that’s carrying more than the mind has processed. »

Here are a few perceptive observations she wrote after a Psychosomatic Organizing Field session:

Guided Back Into the Body: What a Somatic Session with Julie Archambault Taught Me About Reconnection

« Somatic work isn’t talk therapy — it’s a return to the body itself.

Here’s what a session with somatic educator Julie Archambault actually involves, and why coming back into your body might be the missing piece in your intimacy and healing.

The Body Keeps What the Mind Tries to Explain Away

« Most of us are experts at talking about our feelings. Far fewer of us are actually in our bodies while we do it. We can narrate an old wound in perfect detail — what happened, why it hurt, what we’ve since learned — while staying completely disconnected from where that wound actually lives: in the shoulders, the jaw, the chest, the breath that never quite settles all the way down.

What do S€x, Chronic Illness, and Leadership all have in common???

They are all EVENTS in the body.

This is why deep psychosomatic awareness can have a big impact on them.

This is how:

Number 1:

S€x is deeply psychosomatic. This is where the psyche, mind, emotions, and sensations become heightened experiences in the body.

This could feel good… or not so good.

For sustainable s€x, one needs deep attunement, presence, and awareness that require cultivation.

When this is achieved, deep nourishing connection is possible for all.

Number 2:

Chronic illness comes from your body not being supported—emotionally, physically, or spiritually—over an extended period of time.

Compensation and dysregulation over long stretches of time means your biology lacks what it needs, resulting in chronic conditions

Through psychosomatic practices, we can access the compensation patterns and enhance the body’s natural propensity for health.

Number 3:

Leadership is posture, nerves, confidence, charisma, self-regulation, clarity, all rooted in the body.

Blocks to leadership are expressed in the body and hold you back.

Leadership blocks get resolved in the body. Awareness is born in the body. When you learn to embody your true power, you make the greatest impact.

Join us for the journey.

“In truth, I hate s€x.”

Very few people know how to truly connect during s€x. The truth is most people don’t know how to truly be with sensations nor emotions in an embodied way even in their day to day lives—WITHOUT adding s*x to the mix.

Bind together two disembodied bodies, surviving the pressures of life, unaware of their unfelt emotions, nor how to feel them, unaware of sensations in their bodies, pepper in their habits of numbing and avoidance, douse it with the intensity of s€x as “hit-driven” or “release-driven” automatic s€x, and s€x becomes a process that ends up making you feel increasingly and unpleasantly disconnected from your body—and of course, from your partner.

No wonder some people admit to me that “In truth, they hate s€x.”

Being disconnected leaves a really unpleasant sensation, that eventually, you are going to want to avoid.

“Disconnect” is a by-product of our very full, oversaturated, frenzied, performance-driven and disembodied society, with all its pressing timelines and over stimulus. But it’s also a by-product of lack of awareness, presence and skill to deal with emotions, with noticing what is there, and to be with sensations as they awaken and blossom in the body.

Your connection to your body is actually your capacity for intimate connection with another.

Most people are very disconnected: they can’t access emotions nor sensations in their bodies. They are in many ways simply cut off or numbed out. Many people have developed strong adaptations to not feel their bodies: overworking, overthinking, care-taking others, numbing, or disengaging all together, are a few examples.

Slow S€x

“Receptivity is a powerful state of vitality and presence in which true passion is a surrendring to the genius of nature’s ways. Without the quality of receptivity there is little chance for man to respond in true male dynamic fashion...”—“Slow S*x,” Diana Richardson
