MOTIVA METHOD® Somatic Body Oriented Coaching

Motiva Method® is a sustainable somatic foundation for everyday life. The practice offers a place to begin—and a practice to return to. Through somatic coaching, movement and creative exploration, the method invites you to begin with what is present, notice what emerges and explore what feels available. Motiva Method® offers multiple ways to begin the practice through online community, in-person series, online small group coaching cohorts as well as 1:1 somatic body-led coaching. We believe in supporting the entire system from coach to client and client to coach through our Somatic Collective Community and booking site. You do not have to change your whole life to build the life you want to live. BEGIN → NOTICE → EXPLORE → RETURN → INTEGRATE → CLOSE

Meet the Founder

I’m Jaime Keating a Somatic Body-Oriented Coach and founder of Motiva Method® — a sustainable somatic foundation for everyday life. Art entered my own somatic practice during a time when injury changed my relationship with movement. Unable to move and dance in the ways I was accustomed to, I began listening to music and putting what I noticed onto paper—first through lines, then color and shading, watercolor pencils and eventually paint. There wasn’t a finished product I was trying to create. The practice became another way to notice, explore and stay curious about what was present. That exploration became part of the foundation from which Motiva Method® grew.

MOTIVA METHOD® A practice for the life you’re already living.

MOTIVA METHOD® A practice for the life you’re already living.

Motiva Method® grew from a simple question: What if meaningful practice didn’t always require carving out more time? A moment of awareness while washing dishes. Movement while music plays. Color catching your attention as you move through your day. A pause before making the first mark on a blank page. Motiva Method® invites awareness into the life already being lived. BEGIN Meet this moment as it is. NOTICE What is here? EXPLORE What feels available? RETURN What supports you now? INTEGRATE Let it settle, choose one step forward. CLOSE The process is now finished. You may return where you left off or simply let it be. Consistency, not competition. A place to start, a practice for what is there and a process to close. We BEGIN this practice with a Blank Canvas, a space of open opportunity to what wants to emerge.

What our artists say:
I am a professional painter. Being stuck creatively had been mysterious to me before I started somatic coaching with Jaime. Jaime has shown me the ways in which my posture and breathing are affecting my creative stream. Now before I start a piece, I scan my body for tensions or unmet needs, and the art flows! Michelle W. - An artist’s experience
What our caregivers say:
Years of caregiving have left me blind and deaf to my own needs. Sitting with Jaime, and noticing a simple thing like the fact that my feet were cold has made me realize the value of somatic coaching. A pair of warm socks is simple enough, and taking care of myself helps me care for those around me. Michelle W. - A caregiver’s experience

What our clients are saying

Having worked for over a decade with cognitive behavioral therapists, I thought I had reached the end of what could be done for my mental health. Then I started somatic coaching with Jaime. Incorporating physical awareness into my mental healthcare has opened up a whole new avenue of healing for me. If you think you’ve left no stone unturned, let Jaime show you the cobblestone streets your nervous system has laid out for you!
