About Jamie Griffiths
I’m a bodyworker and somatic therapist. I live and work in Hackney and I’m on a mission to heal the mind-body split.
My path has been a winding one…
I’ve been a mathematician, an actor, a writer, a marketing executive, a freelancer, a bartender, a factory worker, a charity fundraiser, a waiter, a salesman, a customer services agent, a telemarketer, a coach, a massage therapist, a yoga teacher and a dad.
Being a dad and a partner has been the toughest gig. For years I struggled with overwhelm and explored many different therapies, substances and practices that might help me become the person I wanted to be. But the single most important thing for me when it came to finding a way through anxiety and depression was working with the body.
Becoming a massage therapist was part of my journey to wholeness. But massage alone wasn’t enough. My explorations with exploring bodily sensation to effect healing have led me study breathwork, yoga, qigong, Reichian bodywork, bioenergetics and somatic parts work.
So I’ve brought all these together into a framework that helps people access the immense resources that lie within them for healing and development. For resolving anxiety, depression, chronic fatigue and chronic pain so that they can live freer, fuller, more vivid lives.
Our traumas might have made us who we are, but they don’t have to define who we will be.
