If you’ve ever felt stuck in your head, overwhelmed by your child’s big emotions, or unsure how to stay calm in the chaos—this episode is for you.

In this conversation, Jess is joined by psychosomatic practitioner Lauraine Mann to explore how your body holds the key to parenting with more calm, connection, and confidence. You’ll learn why unprocessed emotions get stored in the body, how your nervous system shapes your reactions, and simple body-based tools you can use daily to reset.

What you’ll hear:

  • What “somatic” really means and why it matters for moms
  • The nervous system’s role in handling your child’s big feelings
  • Tiny, doable somatic practices to reduce stress in everyday parenting
  • How to redirect your child’s hitting or yelling into safe, body-based outlets
  • Ways to model emotional regulation and build your child’s resilience

This is your invitation to stop overthinking, reconnect with your body, and discover the missing piece that can transform your parenting.

Lauraine Mann is a Psychosomatic Practitioner based in New York, offering in person and virtual 1:1 and couples sessions. With a Master's Degree in Psychology, a Diploma in Somatic (Body-Based) Therapy, and over 20 years of experience in energy healing and meditation facilitation, she offers a compassionate and intuitive space where your inner experiences and outer relationships can be explored with curiosity and care.
