Somawise

Finally…someone teaches how to "get out of your head."

"As someone who has had the pleasure of participating in Dr. Luke Sniewski's 12-week online program, I have looked forward to the publication of Somawise. His ability to weave personal experiences with the latest research in neuroscience and trauma has been a tremendous help in breaking down my own barriers to a more peaceful (and healthy) existence."

For all bodies curious about direct truth and sustainable transformation

"I looked forward to the time I'd set aside each day to read Somawise. The writing strikes a beautiful balance between being relatable on a human-to-human level, and referencing relevant literature. More importantly, Dr. Luke's own experiential insight and vulnerability shine through on every page."

Excellent Read

"Luke's writing is engaging and accessible. He simplifies complex issues and science to make them applicable to our lives and shares his own story authentically and vulnerably. He brings new insights to practices such as meditation, by taking the body's perspective, which greatly impacted my own practice. Highly recommended."

The most useful book on your bookshelf

"This book created a profound shift in me…at the core, the essence. It is going to be the most valuable book on my shelf for both personal and professional uses. Somawise is about knowing and being concurrently… because everything we know is not just in the mind. I am grateful to Luke Sniewski for writing this wonderful resource."

A book that is more like a guide for self-discovery

"A so much needed human approach to self-discovery, very different from other books of self-development. Like if you need someone to join you on a journey of change, like a guide that shows you multiple possibilities, and still lets you choose the right path for you. Highly recommend it!"

Fabulous read to reset how you think and feel

"I loved Luke's approach to challenging my beliefs. I often approached life with a 'mind of matter' point of view that was always in conflict to what I felt my body was telling me. I now have a better understanding of me and how I can do life in harmony with my body."

Deeper healing and insight-inducing

"This book gently nourishes the reader with wisdom and empathy in the pursuit of authenticity and freedom. Dr. Luke Sniewski is an outstanding professional and author who leads the reader in the direction of making profound discoveries about oneself."

Somawise is a travelers guide to a meeting with oneself

"Amazing read and is relatable to a wide audience, from ex-jocks like myself to academics. Somawise made me aware of the communication from the mind's greatest asset, the body. I highly recommend this book to anyone wishing to finally meet — themselves."

Amazing Healing Resource

"In a world that is inaccurately fixated on the mind as the center of healing, Somawise provides you guidance on your journey to reconnect with your body so that deeper healing becomes possible. It's a great combination of the science of embodiment, relatable personal anecdotes, and practical healing information."

Practical and Helpful

"Everytime I pick up Somawise, there is something I get out of it. It helps me to reflect deeper into my own life and has practical strategies to help me live my best life! It is definitely a valuable part of my healing journey."

Get in touch with your body and elevate your life experience

Relearning how to feel

"This book is an invitation, entry point and companion for re-learning how to feel. It's a well-articulated and approachable conversation focusing on how modern humans are becoming more disconnected from self-awareness and how to reconnect with its ancient wisdom. Well done!!"

We often are told to "be authentic" but rarely get shown how… Enter Somawise.

Highly recommended!"

Somawise is bold and authentic! A rare gem in the self help literature!

"Dr. Luke Sniewski did a remarkable job in challenging the current popular belief that the 'mind is in control'. He makes a compelling case for why the soma / the body is primary and the mind/thoughts follow. I am very thankful for this book and would highly recommend it to anyone that seeks authentic change."

Feeling is Healing – inspirational, insightful and well-written

"This book is a must read! Luke's ability to see things and then put them into words so others can begin seeing them too is exceptional. 'Somawise' alongside teachings provides the reader with different techniques and strategies that can be used in the journey back to the True Self."

A worthwhile read for self-improvement!

"I read this book to look at how I can improve and better my own life. There is some real wisdom in here and all created from real world experience. It made me want to join the Somawise online course, which I did, and this has really allowed me to develop tools for my own self improvement. Thanks, Dr. Luke."

Authenticity before all things…

"I found a ton to relate to in this book. I am a person who has spent a lifetime trying to use my head to get out of problems that my head was creating. This book helped me see a different, more effective and more compassionate approach to understanding what was driving me."

A compelling invitation to reconnect with your body's innate wisdom.

"As someone who has tried to heal by thinking and intellectual understanding, reading the words 'Heal the body, the mind will follow' was like a breath of fresh air that my body knew to be true. This book is a beautiful guide for anyone who is tired of living in their head."

Accessible, Informative, and – well – true

"Luke has an easy-going way of delivering his message. I found this book very easy to digest and integrate. Luke weaves in real-life stories with somatic-psycho-education. Possibly for fans of Dr Gabor Mate, Bessel Van der Kolk, Peter Levine."

A must read for real change

"Somawise is refreshing, insightful and accessible. A must read for real change."

Feeling is Healing

"'Once we provide the body with what it needs to heal and thrive, the mind becomes our powerful ally, friend and helper.' This is not about reading a book. This is about discovering your essence and experiencing new possibilities. Healing is a journey. One step at a time."

If you're a fan of Gabor Maté, then this book's a must!!

"Living in an individualistic culture dominated by noise and head-based actions, this book helps anchor us in our body, the present moment, and stillness. It provides us with simple tools that help us reconnect with and ground in our own innate wisdom."
