Private Somatic

Breathwork.

Guided in-home journeys to rewire the nervous system and return to your unconditioned self.

The Philosophy

Science meets the Sacred.

At Anima Journeys, we believe the breath is the ultimate bridge between the conscious mind and the sovereign wisdom of the body. We guide you back to your innate, unconditioned self, helping you shed the layers of chronic stress and survival patterns that modern life demands.

Our practice utilizes Conscious Connected Breathwork (CCB) alongside functional somatic techniques. Rather than a traditional top-down therapeutic approach, we invite you to descend into the body. By retraining your nervous system flexibility and increasing your tolerance for profound physical release, we restore your body's natural mechanics and emotional equilibrium.

The Guide

Natalie Watenpaugh

Born and raised in the rugged elegance of Telluride, Colorado, Natalie’s connection to the grounding energy of the mountains is an integral part of her story.

Bringing over a decade of experience as a yoga instructor, her background as a doula has honed her rarest skill: the profound ability to hold an unshakable, safe space for individuals undergoing vulnerable, life-altering transitions.

Certified in the prestigious ReWild Trauma-Informed CCB Methodology, Natalie holds a supportive, integrity-led container. She teaches from a place of deep embodiment and lived experience—not performance—ensuring your journey is guided by genuine somatic intelligence.
