Your midlife body isn't fighting you, it's guiding you…

Let me show you how to work with your biology, not against it, so that you can listen to your body and live well.

Feel like you’ve fallen out of sync with your body & sense of purpose?

It’s time to start your embodied path…

Whether you are just starting on your healing & wholing journey or you are an experienced teacher looking to actualize your fullest potential, I will meet you where you are.

I’M BUFFY OWENS

Somatic Movement Educator and Spiritual Life Coach here to help you build a life & legacy that is true to who you are at your core.

With over 20 years of guiding somatic movement, breathwork, meditation, and embodied coaching, I support women navigating midlife transitions who are ready to peel back the layers of systemic and cultural programming that keep them from stepping into a freer, more aligned version of themselves.

My work through the SOMA Framework is rooted in the art of inhabiting your wholeness and grows out of 30 years of meditation practice and a deep reverence for cultivating presence. Born from my vow to end suffering and seeded during my time living at a Zen Temple, I know that when we inhabit all of who we are, we experience a more meaningful life… and we ripple healing into the world around us.

Testimonials

★★★★★

Buffy's presence and insights allowed me to gain real clarity in a situation that I've been struggling with. She was able to make a complex challenge feel so much more manageable, and I can see a way forward now. Her years of experience in healing work are so apparent. Thank you, Buffy.

—Betsy, Health Coach

★★★★★

Buffy brings her presence, years of somatic knowledge, and wonderful ability to meet a person where they are, all in a non-judgmental space. I felt her genuine care as she guided me to my own healing.

I really appreciated how she helped me to access my own inner wisdom to come to my own conclusions and action items. I have worked on my pattern over-responsibility for years and felt like Buffy finally helped me resolve it on conscious and unconscious levels. I feel like I can make decisions from a much more grounded place. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a soft, but guiding presence.

I came home exhausted yesterday after a social function and went straight to bed, but instead of putting on my audiobook or watching something, I searched for a "sleep" lesson from your site - head up and down, back and forth. It was the perfect thing to get me right to sleep (and to get me away from addictive habits).

This morning instead of dozing, I searched for a tongue lesson to do before I even got out of bed. What a wonderful way to end and start the day, and I could feel right away how just these few minutes can go a long way to integrate the kinds of things I want to be integrating.

After yesterday's class, I was set for the day. A wonderful calmness and so much less pain in the body.

—Alison

★★★★★

I had never tried humming into various areas of my body. I believe it re-awakened parts of me that perhaps shut down/ turned off since/ during the pandemic. Grateful for your spirit.

—Barbara from Cape Cod

★★★★★

I am starting to understand the power that my body, my whole “Self”, holds. I feel like I can trust myself to really work out what's right for me. It feels like a soulful salve for my worth wounds.

— A Happy &  Healing Participant.

★★★★★

My first class took me into a deeply meditative state and awareness, unlike anything I’ve ever experienced.

—Happy Member

★★★★★

I want you to know that Buffy’s coaching has helped me more than any other aspect of my brain injury rehab or retraining, and I am so thankful for all she’s done.

—Mel

★★★★★

Before working with Buffy, sitting in front of the TV at night was a call for me to stuff my face with sweets, salty carbs, and then some. I would go to bed feeling bloated and miserable, leading to a painful night’s sleep. What’s transpired in our time working together has been nothing short of amazing, including many changes in my eating habits, mindset, and lifestyle: and... I am no longer diabetic!

—B.B.

At 9:30, I decided to listen to the Soft Squeeze to help me unwind my stressful mind. Next thing I knew, it was 11:30, and I’d fallen asleep with my headphones on. Your voice, the content, the spacing, everything about it is mesmerizing and beautiful.

Initially, I came to Buffy to see if the Feldenkrais Method could help me overcome limitations from an injury. I’ve stayed because it offered that and so much more.

Now, at 62, I benefit on many other levels. Each class is a journey of discovery for me. They’re challenging but mentally and physically rewarding. I find a chance to laugh at myself and the habits I’ve developed over the years, which may have been useful when I was younger, but now limit me. With Buffy’s guidance, I find new and easier ways to move, and my listening, concentration, and observation skills have all improved.

—Cindy

★★★★★

...I continue to experience nothing short of phenomenal growth in so many areas.

I have significantly reduced the # of medications I take/took regularly and have cut way back on the dosages of others. There has been such a reduction in pain overall that I was able to do things I hadn’t done in years, even decades, including riding my bicycle, cooking, and my main love, playing guitar.

—Bruce

★★★★★

I am in pain much of the time, but after seeing Buffy my hip joints have not hurt at all. Our Session was very soothing and I will be returning for more help very soon.

—Barbara M.

★★★★★

I had a massive headache and my shoulder, spine, and lower back felt pretty awful. I laid on the floor and did the Gentle Blanket lesson from Gently Unwind Your Spine series. I got off the floor feeling much better, and I went straight to bed... I'm feeling so much better today!

—S.M.

★★★★★

Good clarity and instructions that invite and respect individual learning while threading a "lesson" start to finish. The format with the one Awareness Through Movement® lesson and the two Attune To Awareness practices work well for persons who don't want to take time for full ATM® but still want to benefit.

★★★★★

The “Letting Go Of Tension Meditation” was simply wonderful! It was relaxing, mesmerizing, and successful at helping me to reduce my pain. Just what I needed.

★★★★★

I’m going to nickname the practice the “headache eliminator.”

Wow! I'm going to nickname this practice "the headache eliminator." I had some pounding going on in my head and neck earlier today, but after doing this Attune to Awareness practice, it's 100% gone. The movements were soft and gentle, and I could feel the space inside my head open up….

★★★★★

These phenomenal practices are teaching me that I can manage discomfort with my mind and body. That I don't have to sink into a state of despair, allow myself to become "disabled," or take medications to cope with pain. Instead, I have the power to make myself better!
