House of Soma
REGULATE
A self-paced somatic course
Understand your nervous system. Discover what supports you. Build more capacity for the life you want to live.
For people who want to understand their nervous system, navigate overwhelm and build more capacity for rest, expression and connection.
Six modules of recorded teachings and guided somatic practices, explored at your own pace.
Enrolment is open now. The course opens on 5 November.
Introductory price: AU$150
Rises to AU$250 after 20 November
Regulation, reframed
Regulation is not about becoming calm. It is about building capacity.
You may already know the tools: breathe, ground, slow down, rest. And still, in the moments that matter, it can be hard to know what your body actually needs.
Sometimes grounding helps. Sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes rest restores you, and sometimes what looks like rest is collapse. REGULATE teaches you to tell the difference: to notice activation without being swept away, to explore how to approach your edge in small, manageable steps, and to build capacity through titration, in doses your system can actually integrate.
- More sensation.
- More emotional range.
- More pleasure.
- More intimacy.
- More rest.
- More aliveness.
The aim is not a smaller, more controlled life. It is a nervous system with enough capacity to hold a bigger one.
In real life
More capacity, in everyday moments.
- Noticing when you’re reaching your limit, rather than only realising after you’ve pushed past it.
- Having somewhere to begin when you feel overwhelmed—or distant from yourself.
- Exploring when you need rest, when you need movement, and when connection might help.
- Making room for a feeling without needing to suppress it or express it all at once.
These are some of the everyday possibilities we’ll explore through REGULATE.
The framework
The House of Soma Method
Four principles, in sequence. REGULATE is your foundation in each one.
1
Interrupt
Notice what is happening in your body before the old pattern takes over.
2
Understand
Learn to read your nervous system and what it is actually asking for.
3
Complete
Learn to notice and follow unfinished or inhibited impulses, slowly, without forcing release.
4
Participate
Bring more capacity into relationships, creativity, pleasure and everyday life.
Your nervous system isn’t in the way of an extraordinary life. It’s the doorway to it.— Laura Emilia
The structure
The six modules
Six modules of recorded teachings and guided somatic practices, explored at your own pace.
1
Orientation + tracking
Recognise what is happening in your body, in real time.
2
Grounding + breath
Explore support and settling, and when grounding helps and when it doesn’t.
3
Capacity + resourcing
Build capacity through titration, resourcing and working with your edge.
4
Rest + yielding
Learn the difference between restorative rest and collapse.
5
Movement, impulse + completion
Explore what happens when a movement impulse is given enough space to unfold.
6
Co-regulation + integration
Bring the work into relationship and build a practice that is yours.
You’ll finish with a personal regulation map, a small set of practices you understand deeply, and a clearer sense of what kind of support actually helps you.
How it works
Guidance without another schedule to keep up with.
Follow the six modules in sequence, then revisit the teachings and practices that support you.
You don’t need to complete everything quickly. Leave space between practices, notice your response, and explore how the work fits into your own life.
There are no weekly attendance requirements. The invitation is to practise, reflect and integrate at a pace that works for you.

Is this for you
REGULATE is for you if…
- You often feel overwhelmed, anxious, shut down or chronically “on.”
- You understand a lot intellectually, but struggle to access it when you are activated.
- You know regulation tools, but aren’t sure when or how to use them.
- You want more capacity, not only for stress, but for pleasure, intimacy, creativity and connection.
Please note
This is not therapy
REGULATE is an educational and experiential somatic course. It is not psychotherapy, trauma treatment, crisis support, or a substitute for individual mental health care. Every practice is choice-based, and you will always be encouraged to work within your own capacity.
If you are looking for individual support, Laura also offers 1:1 somatic psychotherapy and embodiment sessions.
Your guide
About Laura
Laura Emilia Escudero is a somatic psychotherapist, movement therapist, bodyworker and yoga teacher with over a decade of experience in body-based practice.
Her work draws from Somatic Experiencing®, Hakomi, somatic movement therapy, expressive movement, bodywork, yoga and trauma-informed psychotherapy.
House of Soma was created as a space to explore the body not simply as something to regulate, but as a source of intelligence, expression, relationship and aliveness. REGULATE is the foundational doorway into that work.
From Laura’s one-to-one clients
What people say about working with Laura
"It is really rare to find someone like Laura to work with. I felt so comfortable being raw and vulnerable, facing wounds that even years of talk therapy hadn't touched. She always knew where my edge was, and how to meet it with softness, respect and authenticity."
Elisa Silbert — Somatic & trauma therapist"Laura's ability to guide me into a space where I felt safe enough to tap into the somatic sensations of unprocessed trauma, and to compassionately re-orient and anchor me into my body, has been incredibly cathartic and empowering."
Jess Tan"Laura has helped me open to new depths within myself, increase my capacity, and soften into the truth of who I am. She works in a gentle, reassuring and real way, unlike any other therapist I've experienced."

Grounded, felt-sense shifts
What might change?
Not an overnight transformation. Small, steady shifts in how you meet your life.
- You may notice activation earlier, before it takes over.
- You may have more choice in the moment before reacting.
- You may recover more easily after intensity.
- You may become more available for rest, pleasure, connection and movement.
