& Resources

Explore body-based practices, nervous system education, and emotional support tools — all designed to help you move at your own pace and deepen your relationship with yourself. These offerings are for those who are curious about reconnecting with their body, expanding their capacity, and creating more intentional patterns in daily life.

Created by Lauren and the team at The Simplest Self, these resources draw from the same approaches we use in 1:1 sessions — offered here in a more accessible, self-paced format.

There’s no pressure to “heal” a certain way. Instead, you’re invited to begin where you are, stay connected to your pace, and explore what support can feel like on your own terms.

Embodied Movement:
Creating a Safe Relationship with Exercise 

Creating a Safe Relationship with Exercise

This self-paced course helps you explore your relationship with fitness through the lens of body awareness, nervous system support, and emotional safety.

Across 9 modules, you’ll learn how movement can become sustainable, nourishing, and connected — not driven by shame, body image, or external pressure. We’ll unpack the impact of weight stigma, diet culture, and nervous system responses on consistency, and offer tools to reconnect with your body in a way that feels safe and supportive.

By the end, you’ll have a clearer understanding of what your body needs — and a movement routine that actually works for you.

Bite Sized Healing

A self-paced course for nervous system support & deeper self-connection

Ready to feel more grounded, emotionally regulated, and connected to yourself?

This course guides you through four key foundations of embodied healing:
• Understanding your nervous system
• Meeting self-compassion with self-agency
• Exploring how stress and trauma live in the body
• Building and navigating close relationships while honoring your process

Move at your own pace with gentle guidance, practical tools, and reflection prompts designed to help you remember — you make sense.
Start reconnecting with yourself, one bite-sized step at a time.

Cultivating Safety in the Body

A trauma-informed yoga bundle for nervous system support

This collection includes a variety of 15–45 minute yoga practices — from restorative to gentle heat-building flows — all designed to help you reconnect with your body in a way that feels safe, supportive, and easeful.

If movement has ever felt disconnected, difficult, or tied to body modification, this is your invitation to redefine the relationship. These practices center care over performance and are here to support sleep, mood, emotional regulation, and connection.

Movement can be a place of pleasure, presence, and possibility. This bundle is a step toward that.

The Inner Critic Workshop

A compassionate approach to working with the part of you that feels critical

If your internal dialogue feels harsh or judgmental at times, you’re not alone — and this workshop is for you.

Rather than trying to silence your inner critic, we explore it through the lens of parts work (IFS) — understanding it as a protective part doing its best to keep you safe. When we meet this part with curiosity instead of resistance, space opens up for connection and change.

Includes:
• A gentle overview of parts work
• Root causes + beliefs often tied to the inner critic
• A somatic practice
• A self-reflective exercise to support inner dialogue shifts

Learn how to relate to your inner critic in a way that feels safe, spacious, and empowering.

Somatic Support:
Building Resilience and Connection

This self-paced course helps you deepen your understanding of nervous system regulation and reconnect with your body in a sustainable, authentic way.

You’ll learn to recognize your body’s cues, build capacity for discomfort, and cultivate a sense of safety within — not by pushing through, but by honoring your system’s pace. We share the same somatic tools we use in our own lives and sessions to support presence, regulation, and connection.

A space to come back to yourself, one breath at a time.

Somatic Parts Work for Clinicians

A self-paced training for therapists, coaches, and helping professionals who want to bring the wisdom of the body into their sessions — with more safety, pacing, and presence.

This training bridges somatic awareness and parts work, helping you understand how the nervous system, protectors, and younger parts interact through the body.

You’ll learn to recognize subtle cues, pace sessions safely, and hold the relational field with steadiness and depth — so clients can move from story to sensation, and from understanding to embodied connection.

Inside you'll find:
· 12 comprehensive videos offering in-depth, embodied, clinically focused learning
· 3 guided audio practices to help you experience the work in your own system
· Downloadable PDF tools, session maps, and reflection prompts you can use right away
· Lifetime access to all materials, plus future updates

Everything inside is designed to be practical, accessible, and immediately usable in real sessions — at a pace that supports your own nervous system.
