Soma Mundi
Marin County, CA
Restoring the living dialogue between body and world, cultivating inward listening and outward offering, tending the place where the Earth speaks through us.

Soma Mundi is born from the belief that the intelligence that turns a star into a galaxy, an earthquake into a mountain range, and an acorn into an oak tree, is the same intelligence that moves through the human body. Humans are not separate from this force, but instead an extension of it—the next evolutionary frontier. The human is the place in which the Earth awakens to herself, and right now, the human plays a vital role in shaping our planetary future.
In times of immense uncertainty, Soma Mundi rests on the conviction that wisdom and guidance is available—not outside of us, but through us—coursing through our flesh, waiting to be heard. At its heart, Soma Mundi is about learning how to listen through experiential practice, supported by psychological, ecological, and cosmological insight.
This work is about embodying—feeling—again, that we, as humans, belong to this Earth and to this cosmos. It is the acknowledgement that yes, life is beautiful and also terrifying, and by choosing to feel it all, we enter into the wild, roaring, dance of life. It is here, in the waltzing, swirling, spinning dance, that life unfolds us into greater dimensions of our being.
It is here that we come to know who we are and who the Earth desires us to be.
About SallY
Sally’s vision for Soma Mundi emerged throughout her many years of study and exploration in disciplines such as psychology, philosophy, cosmology and spiritual ecologies. This multidisciplinary adventure taught her about the marvelous 13.8 billion year journey of the universe, its creation of the Earth, as well as humanity’s potential within the Earth system. This story, when told through a narrative lens, reveals its mythic dimensions, its intrinsically spiritual undertones, and most importantly, a telos that humans might lean upon to discover our species’ belonging within the greater web of life.
Against this backdrop, Sally felt the shadow side of our times. The unraveling of inherited beliefs—while necessary to expose systemic harm and open space for new perspectives—has also left many of us feeling fragmented, adrift, and unsure of where to turn. As she observed the patterns of collective consciousness, she noticed the same currents moving through her own inner life, helping her to sense how personal experience is inseparable from the larger psyche of the Earth, and each informs the other. Her desire to weave together personal and planetary psychology felt clear early on, but ultimately, it was her lived experience of deepening into her own body—feeling what longed to be felt—that enabled a meaningful sense of purpose in her life.
Sally’s explorations in somatic orientations helped converge her theoretical foundations with her living experience and resulted in the aha moment that most directly inspired the creation of Soma Mundi. Many somatic traditions rely on the body’s self-organizing intelligence to help guide personal healing processes. With her background in cosmology, Sally recognized that the self-organizing intelligence that moves through bodies is the same intelligence that evolves and sustains the universe. It became clear that somatic therapies were already offering the tools needed to listen to this inner intelligence and allow it to support us within our personal journeys. The missing piece, however—or rather, the next emergent step—is in widening our intention for listening. We listen, not only to nurture our personal psychology, but also to hear the wisdom that might guide us back toward right relationship with the Earth and our planetary community.
