Somatic Body Map

Where is it living in the body — and what does it want?

TherapistAssist logo

The body remembers in places — a tight jaw, a hollow chest, a buzz in the hands. Slow down. Notice what's here without trying to change it. There is no right answer.

1 · Scan

Mark any zone where you notice something — even faintly.

  • Crown / forehead
  • Jaw / mouth / throat
  • Neck & shoulders
  • Upper chest / heart
  • Diaphragm / under ribs
  • Stomach / belly
  • Lower belly / pelvis
  • Lower back
  • Hips
  • Arms / hands
  • Legs / feet

2 · The loudest spot

Pick the one that wants attention most. Stay with it for a minute.

3 · What does the body want?

Sometimes there's a tiny impulse underneath — to push, pull, curl, reach, run, rest. You don't have to act on it. Just notice.

4 · Check the spot again

Anything different? Softer, stronger, the same, moved? Small shifts count.

5 · One sentence to keep
