Reap the Benefits Somatics Anywhere, at Anytime!

Do you love Somatics but don't have a Somatics Educator in your area?
Or do you not even know what Somatics is, but you've "tried everything" for your pain to no avail?

Either way, you've come to the right place!

Kristin Jackson, CCSE, CPT has created the Think Somatics Online Community. Choose from three unique subscriber plans so you can learn Somatics right from your own home, any time you want to feel great, calm your mind, and get out of pain.

In addition to being a Clinical Somatic Educator Kristin Jackson is a certified personal trainer and has over 25 years of training in movement and health/behavior coaching. She knows you have preferred ways to learn and grow.

Meet Your Teacher

Hi there, I'm Kristin Jackson, a certified Clinical Somatic Educator and Holistic Fitness Specialist.

If you're like me you've had your fair share of injuries and accidents. You get by but you don't function as well as you use to. And you feel it.

For me my body finally revolted when I was hit by a car while riding my bike. The things I took for granted-- walking, working out, gardening--just plain hurt. I tried what you probably try; massage, physical therapy, chiropractic, etc. but nothing lasted, some made things worse.

Then I discovered Somatics! The immediate and long term results --I know it sounds cliche--changed my life. So now I share the gift of Somatics with folks all around the world.

Please join me in the Think Somatics Online Community

Answers to Your FAQs

Please read the FAQ section to learn more about the Community Plans and your subscription. These FAQs cover a lot of the "fine print" details so please read before enrolling. Thank you!

Is Somatics for me?

Somatics can help every body! Somatics can help those in pain to athletes wanting to enhance their game. No matter your age, gender, shape or size, Somatics can help you. Somatics classes are not exercise classes. They are classes to enhance your brain's sensory-motor awareness of yourself via gentle, slow movement.
Information shared in the lessons is not meant to replace or negate medical advice. Talk with your health care providers about Somatics. We encourage you to make your own health care decisions based upon your own research and in partnership with your health professionals.

Which Plan is best for me?

Level 3 is truly the primo plan! In addition to recordings, your membership includes access to the Think Somatics Online Studio. Attend live classes with Kristin! Live classes include Somatics, Proactive Postural Restructuring classes and E-courses offered throughout the year. Folks love this plan because it's a screaming deal and gives them access to talk directly with Kristin in Zoom classes. She's created this plan because no matter how good our intentions may be, having some accountability increases your success by 65-95%* :-)

Level 2 is for those who want lots of variety of recordings to keep their practice fresh and varied, so the brain is constantly learning new things! There's a ton of fabulous lessons to enjoy in this plan. Practice whenever and where ever you are, as often as you like.

Level 1 is perfect for those who like to keep things simple, with a bit of timely motivation. Each calendar month Level 1 members get a curated batch of lessons to enjoy. Practice those, then get a whole new set next month.

Where should I start?

If you are brand new to Somatics be sure to do the Somatics 101 course, which is included with each membership plan.

It would do you well to schedule a personal online session with Kristin. She can help you with your specific issues and goals, so you get the most out of your membership plan.

Pick a membership plan that works best for you!
Level 1 is is perfect for those who are motivated by deadlines. Each month you get a new curated collection of recordings that replaces the previous month's collection.
Level 2 is for you if you are self directed and like to practice Somatics on your own schedule. And like a lot of variety.
Students of Level 3 love attending the regularly scheduled Zoom classes. They also love the classes and recordings that go beyond Somatics. As a holistic health and fitness trainer, Kristin blends her background in Pilates, Proactive Postural Restructuring, Behavioral Change Coaching and more into live classes and e-courses. If you purchased drop-in classes, e-courses and recordings separately, you'd expect to pay hundreds of dollars a month, so obviously this plan is a screaming deal. :-)

Are the lesson recordings streaming on demand or downloadable?

All the recordings are streaming on demand. No downloading or storage space required! All you need is WiFi and your device of choice.

How do I access the Live Zoom classes with Kristin?

Live Zoom classes are included in Level 3 Plan only. Once you are enrolled, you'll need to register for the classes you want to attend. Look for the product labeled "SIGN UP FOR ZOOM CLASSES HERE" to register.

I think of myself as a "visual learner." I'm wondering how the audio recordings will work for me.

Fitness classes are fast paced so you want to watch the instructor to keep up. Somatics classes are sooooo different. Kristin will guide through your lessons, slowly and with detailed cuing and direction.

And you know what? Students in the live classes generally do the lessons with their eyes closed.

If you need clarity, please out the Somatic Movement Video Collection product for videos of individual movements.

You can also ask questions about the lessons below the recordings in the comments section.

If you have lots of questions and need a lot of personalized attention please schedule a private lesson. (You'll get a recording of that lesson too. :-)

Can I do Somatics on my bed or couch?

Somatics is best done on a lightly cushioned, firm surface, like a rug, carpet, blankets or an exercise/yoga mat.

If you decide to do a class from a bed, please do the moves very gently, slowly and avoid making large, exaggerated motions.

Please avoid doing Somatics on a couch or other furniture.

Over time you should find you can get to the floor. Kristin has clients well into their 80s who can, and you can too!

Can I share my membership with a friend?

Nope. One membership per household, please. Thank you!

Are the monthly fees based on calendar months or from date of activation?

Your monthly membership starts the day you enroll and renews each month on the same date. If you choose an annual membership, the same applies.

Do I need any special equipment when I do the lessons?

Ultimately the only things you need for Somatics is your brain, body, and a quiet space and time.
That said, here is some additional information.
SOMATICS CLASSES
Somatics classes are most often done lying on the floor, so you might want a mat, blanket or rug.
You might want a pillow for your head, during side-lying movements.
If you need any additional props to make yourself comfortable, by all means use them.
Some classes are done standing and seated.
If we do a seated class, a chair or stool with a flat seat and no arms are best.
If there is any special equipment needed for a course, it will listed in your course information.
PROACTIVE POSTURAL RESTRUCTURING CLASSES
PPR classes are done sitting on a chair, sitting on the floor and lying on the floor. You can also do the lessons with your back or legs against the wall. (PPR classes are included in Level 3 Plan only.)
SOMA FIT
These classes may incorporate fitness gear, such as exercise balls, hand weights, exercise tubing, gliding discs, etc. Most items are easily acquired at your local sporting goods store, big box or online. Any needed equipment will be listed with the course description prior to start of class. (SOMA FIT classes are included in Level 3 Plan only.)

How long are the lessons?

Generally live Zoom classes and recordings are between 45-60 minutes long. E-courses may include more than one lesson recording.
The Level 3 Plan includes a Mini Somatics Lessons. These lessons average 5 to 30 minutes long.

What days and times are the Live Zoom classes?

The Live Zoom classes are only included in the Level 3 Plan.
Here are the current times and days of classes. Times listed in Eastern time. Find your time zone here.
Proactive Postural Restructuring with Kristin | Mondays | 11:30am
Somatics with Kristin | Tuesdays | 11:30am
Somatics with Kristin | Wednesdays | 4:00pm

Can I get a refund?

No. There are no refunds on digital materials or memberships. Failure to cancel your account does not result in a refund. In the rare case when a refund is issued, the refund amount is 10% less of full refund. This is due to credit card processing fees.

I think I need some personalized attention for my condition and situation. . .

If you are unsure about how Somatics can help you, by all means, schedule a private session with Kristin! You'll work directly with her via Zoom and get recordings of your session. You can learn more and schedule one here.

Somatics is the Missing Link to Pain Relief

Somatics is the missing link to pain relief. Think about this: Why are humans the only species on the planet that take their bodies to other people to "fix' them?

Once people learn the secret of Somatics, it makes perfect sense and becomes the ultimate solution to chronic pain.

Somatics puts you in charge of self-soothing and self-regulating your responses to stress and pain.

See, the brain controls how the whole system--that system which is you and your body--including how your muscles contract and release.

But when we experience injuries, stressors, accidents, repetitive activities, our brains learn how to contract muscles over and over, without releasing them to their true resting length.

The result is Sensory Motor Amnesia. The sensory motor cortex has lost clear neurological control of how your body functions, resulting in tension patterns that cause pain and "aging". (its not your age, it's your brain! :-)

Luckily we are blessed with amazing nervous systems that want to find peace and equilibrium. And we have brains that are "plastic" meaning they can change at any age.

So how do you change your brain to change your body? By doing gentle somatic movements called pandiculations. You learn to sense where your tension patterns are, release your muscles to their natural resting length, and reclaim your freedom of movement and joy for life!

Somatics works because it's addressing the root of all movement and functioning: the brain!

Kristin has worked with clients after stroke, with scoliosis, torn meniscus, chronic hip and back pain, frozen shoulder, pelvic floor disorders. The list goes on. When they quickly learn how to take back control of their bodies, so many ask, "Why don't more people know about Somatics?!"

Why? Because it's such a paradigm shift to go from taking our bodies to someone else, to being able to self sense and self correct, just by being more aware of how we use our bodies and laying down new neural pathways between the brain and body. But the time has come. The world is in such need for Somatic Education.

Folks are reaping the benefits of Somatics around the world. And you can too! At the current time there are a very limited number of certified Clinical Somatic Educators in the world. That's why Kristin Jackson makes it her mission to provide ONLINE somatics lessons.

Enroll in the Think Somatics Community, an ever-expanding resource of recorded lessons to "attend" anytime, anywhere.

Learn to let go of what's holding you back.

Kristin looks forward to sharing with the world the wonders of Somatics with you when you join the Think Somatics Online Community!

May we all find peace and equilibrium.

I've taken Kristin's group classes, online courses and 1-on-1 sessions and benefitted deeply from each format. Her instruction is clear, fun, safe and accessible. The Somatics work is so safe and gentle, yet profoundly transformative. It's a practice of self-liberation through inquiry and intuitive movement. It gives a person D-I-Y skills of self-reliance from pain pills and dependency on expensive adjustments from various body work styles.
Kristin reminds me to thank my brain, because it's re-educating my muscles into finding relaxation and homeostasis.

Emily R, Vancouver, WA

Hi Kristin! I have been practicing the movements.... I have noticed some interesting shifts in my psyche and body. I am much more aware of when I tense up and I feel more space/less compression in my spine and neck. I have much less pain. :-) Thank you. You are a wonderful teacher. :-)

MW, Paris, France

I had sciatica years ago, which eventually resolved. Decades later it returned with a vengeance. I couldn't move without 10+ pain! I couldn't walk without the aid of my trekking poles. I worked with Kristin online. She immediately assessed the situation, helped me lower my anxiety level, gave me some gentle safe movements to practice a bit every day, and within two days I was totally pain free! Wish I knew about Somatics years ago! :-)

Hey Kristin! I've learned how "fix" myself and fix every pain, every time. Heel pain. Back pain. Foot pain. All from a chair. Normally I would be calling my chiropractor. I think those days are finally over. I am very thankful. I just wanted you to know and to say thank you.

Pat, Canby, Oregon

Thank you Kristin! I have loved the online somatics classes. I feel so blessed to have found you online as there are no somatics practitioners here in Cape Town. I have been struggling with chronic pain and tightness and Somatics is helping me find release and empowering me to be my own practitioner. You articulate the process so well and I look forward to more.

Lisa, Cape Town, South Africa

Somatics has changed my life. To not be in constant pain is such a relief. When I first started I felt instant changes and almost couldn't believe how simple it is. I do my Somatics movements everyday with the knowledge that it is so beneficial to and for me. Many thanks, Kristin!
