Somatic Focusing, Intuitive Movement & Heart Opening with Iren A Merdinyan

Somatic healing for deep inner connection and embodied living from the Heart

Are you feeling anxious, stressed or on the edge of burnout?

Do you need a safe space for meaningful change?

Or courage to explore your creative idea?

I can show you where to begin: in your body.

Book 1:1 session and learn how to...

uncover and release what's held in the body, shift patterns, ease tension, gain a clearer understanding of yourself, restore energy and regulate your nervous system.

Inner Connexion offers three paths of somatic healing and transformation - Somatic Focusing (the six-step Focusing technique developed by philosopher and psychotherapist Eugene Gendlin with added somatic practices), Intuitive Movement (Awareness in Movement) and Heart Opening focus (working with emotions and feelings and Cacao plant medicine).

Ultimately, the purpose of any practice is to arrive at a place where we feel good about ourselves — free from shame, guilt, and the need to control outcomes, resting in an open heart.
- Iren A Merdinyan, Founder of Inner Connexion

– Eugene Gendlin, Founder of Focusing


Unless change occurs unmistakably in the body, it does not, in my opinion, occur at all.

    Hi, I am Iren, and I'm a Focusing and Somatic Attachment Therapy Practitioner and Cacao Guide.

    I spent 15 years practicing and 6 years teaching yoga and meditation. My focus has been on Heart-opening through Cacao, Embodied Movement and Somatic practices that leads to deeper inner connection.

    I teach Somatic Restorative, Intuitive Movement, and Yoga Nidra Classes; each of these styles brings its own unique way of relaxing the body and sinking the mind into the heart. I’m certified Yoga Nidra, Yin Yoga, Vinyasa and Himalayan Kriya Yoga teacher.

    I’ve been practicing awareness and meditation skills in a spiritual context since 2004, with deep respect and aligned with the Toltec teachings and the Path of the Heart and Freedom.
