My name is Leigh Polodna and I am the founder of EASE Somatic Wellness and Coaching. As someone who struggled with feeling disconnected from my body the majority of my life, I know how that can create all sorts of issues, such as insecurity, people pleasing, perseverating, distrust in yourself, mental health issues, and more. I stumbled across somatics and found it to be the only modality that was able to rebuild that connection with my body and what it was trying to tell me for so long. I personally have used somatics to move myself from being at war with my body and being stuck in a life that no longer fit me, to being someone who loves my life and understands myself so much better now.

I am passionate about helping people connect with their bodies and find their power within themselves. When we stop being fearful of our body and our emotions, we can find so much information and empowerment.

At EASE, we use Somatics to process stuck energy from trauma, from stories people are told about who they are that may have never been true, from agreements they have made with the world that are no longer serving them and help them get to a place where they are thriving.

I want to empower and ultimately teach people how to connect with themselves so they are able to be the person they want to be, without needing anyone else to “heal” them. My belief is that none of us are broken or need to be fixed. We are whole people who have the power within each of us to change the things that are no longer working in our lives. Whether that is trauma healing, helping with chronic pain, move lifetimes of old story, build confidence and self-esteem, there is so much more to life than feeling stuck and small. At EASE, I have created a non-judgmental, authentic container to give you the tools to be able to do just that.
