“I just need to
get myself under control
and go back on a diet.”

How many times  have you said this to yourself? 

Every day? Every month? Every year?

You're in the right place!

IN OTHER WORDS…

A shiny, gold four-pointed star with a metallic texture, set against a plain white background.

The current mainstream methods for healing eating and body image concerns are incomplete and ineffective.

These methods often don’t address the trauma response and nervous system dysregulation to your eating and body behaviors.

will teach you how to:

Repair your communication and relationship with your food and body.

MY STORY

Have we met yet?
I'm Stephanie Mara.

And I’ve been right where you are.

For a decade of my life, I navigated patterns of binge eating, emotional eating, chronic dieting, overexercising, and unexplained digestive issues.

One fateful night, clutching a jar of almond butter in my hands like it was a life raft, trying to decide whether or not to eat the whole damn thing, I made a different choice: 

The choice to be in my body and feel the intense desire to binge and then choose not to. 

A woman with curly dark hair, wearing a navy polka-dot shirt and jeans, smiles while sitting on a swing in front of a rustic, corrugated metal wall and a wooden door.

Things can change.
Healing can happen.

Your life doesn’t have to be ruled by food.

I have spent over a decade supporting others to be in relationship with their food and body in more regulating ways — and I’m so excited to embark on this journey with you. 

THE METHOD

What is
Somatic Eating®?

Somatic Eating® blends six fields (Somatic Psychotherapy, Nervous System Regulation, Developmental and Attachment Theories, Trauma Recovery, and Nutritional Science) into one cohesive approach, helping you understand food and body image impulses as your body’s way of communicating unmet needs, unresolved trauma, and nervous system dysregulation.

Through somatic , nervous system, attachment, and nutritional explorations, you’ll learn to speak the language of your body — attuning to both physical and emotional hungers — so you can restore trust and feel safe, secure, and satiated.

SOMATIC PSYCHOLOGY

Body-based awareness and nervous system healing

TRAUMA RECOVERY

NUTRITIONAL SCIENCE
Evidence-based nourishment that honors your body

The Somatic Eating® approach will support you with patterns of:

Gold circles of varying sizes arranged in a symmetrical, starburst pattern on a white background, with a metallic texture giving the design a shiny, elegant look.

Somatic Eating® is here to address patterns of disordered eating that came into your life to regulate a dysregulated nervous system.

Dysregulation can occur for many reasons:

Your body may constantly feel unsafe to be in.

You might have labeled yourself as a “binge eater” or an “emotional eater” or “have no willpower with food” or a “a yo-yo dieter.”

And always trying to control the way you eat and look can be a coping mechanism to try to regulate your body.

What’s important to know is that your food and body behaviors have been the wisest strategies to make you feel safe.

Somatic Eating® can help you re-inhabit your body and reclaim your life.

There is no class in school that teaches you how to listen to and understand your body.

Here’s What You Get Inside

The Somatic Eating® Program

Two gold, stylized human figures: one with a heart on the chest, the other with a hand on the first’s shoulder. Golden stars and lines shine above them, symbolizing connection and support.

Accountability Buddy & Private Group

You will have access to a private group to reach out to receive support. 

You will also be connected to an accountability buddy so you don’t have to navigate this journey alone and have someone to talk through the material with and provide accountability with one another.

9 Live Group Calls With Stephanie Mara

You will be able to connect directly with me throughout this adventure. You will have 9 Live Calls and 3 Somatic Community Meals.

Each call will include time for Q&A and an opportunity to receive one-on-one support. All calls are recorded and will be available to listen to the replay.

Tools to become an Embodied Eater

This includes food and body explorations to practice each week so you can start to feel more attuned and understanding of your body and how it talks to you. 

You will learn tools and techniques to move through dysregulation, urges, cravings, and impulses in ways that regulate your system.

Two gold chat bubbles, one with a question mark inside, overlap with gold sparkles around them on a light background.

You might be asking yourself though,

“How is Somatic Eating® going to be any different?”

Many of the programs you have gone through have approached your eating and body challenges from a mental place. They probably offered you cognitive exercises that stimulate your mind and tools that solely focus on your nutrition, but still don’t connect you back with your body.

Continuing to focus on what you’re eating isn’t going to solve your eating and body image concerns.

A gold circular design with a heart in the center, surrounded by curved lines and three gold sparkles on a white background.

This journey will guide you back into your body to feel greater aliveness and connection.

Learn to feel confident that you can surf any urge, any craving, any impulse, and any emotional wave that comes your way.

From this relaxed bodily state, it can then feel easier to identify and satiate your physical and emotional hungers in embodied and aligned ways.

A Letter from Me to You:

Dear you,

I don’t want this to be just another page you read and pass on by thinking:​

“Oh, that may work for someone else, but not for me. I’ve tried everything and nothing has worked.”

I get it. I’ve been where you are.

There are so many things in this world that break body trust and make it so difficult to embrace your body as it is and feel safe to be in it.

There is diet culture that perpetuates the message that losing weight means you are a “success” and gaining weight means you are a “failure.” There is fitness culture that provides the message of “no pain, no gain” or your body is only acceptable if it is toned and fit. There is the clothing industry that lacks inclusivity and creating clothing for all shapes and sizes.

Absolutely – get mad. Be mad! Just please stop getting mad at yourself. 

Your body is not the problem. It’s the culture that needs to change, not you.

I want you to know that feeling calm and connected in your relationship with your food and body is possible.

My mission is to support you in creating a regulating, safety-producing relationship with food and body so that you can feel free, alive, vibrant, and use all that energy toward living your fullest Satiated Life. 

If taking this leap is bringing up any thoughts or emotions, email me. Seriously. I’m here for you in this process every step of the way. Reach out at support@somaticeating.com anytime. 

I so look forward to connecting with you inside Somatic Eating® and talking to you soon. 

Warmly,

Somatic Eating® Community

Somatic Eating® is an ongoing process.

Creating a safe, secure, and satiated relationship with your food and body takes time and practice.

A lot can change in our 12 weeks together and you can keep the momentum going by joining the Somatic Eating® Community after you’re complete with the program.

This community membership is only available to those who have gone through the Somatic Eating® Program or worked one on one with me. This means you will be able to talk with others about how you’re integrating the Somatic Eating® ingredients into your body.

You will continue to receive ongoing guidance from me, a private space to connect with others, and monthly check in and support calls. You don’t have to embark on this journey alone and healing happens in community. You will have the option to join at the end of the Somatic Eating® program.

Excited? Have Questions?

A shiny, gold four-pointed star with a metallic texture, set against a plain white background.

Here are some frequently asked questions.

How fast can I expect results?

For some individuals, you may experience changes right away. For others, this program will plant seeds where you will notice things start to grow and change over time. This journey is not about quick fixes. That is why the Somatic Eating® Community will be there for you to join after this program is over to continue to receive support on this ongoing food and body journey.

We will be taking a different approach to weight in this program. We don’t know how much anyone is “supposed” to weigh. We will be putting more emphasis on how you feel in your body. This will be a discovery of what supports you in feeling the way you think you will feel after a weight change right here and right now. Our ultimate goal is to discover what supports you in feeling light, empowered, cared for, regulated, and vibrant.
This program will not be offering another strict diet or meal plan. You will be discovering what digests and assimilates in your body with ease so your meal creations will be unique to you based on honoring, listening, and receiving your body’s feedback.

Absolutely not! Along with discovering what works best for your unique body, we will also be exploring ways you can optimally nourish your body that feels doable and sustainable in your life.

I understand. It’s going to take time to make the body a safe space to inhabit again. Every class is recorded and you get access to this material forever so you can take your time and go at a pace that feels comfortable to you. I recommend also working with another practitioner one on one while you go through this program. If you would like more one on one support from me or looking for a referral, email me at support@stephaniemara.com.

No it does not. This program is not therapy nor is it a replacement for therapy. This journey will explore many of the reasons your food and body behaviors could be occurring and provide you with effective Somatic Eating® tools but it’s not a replacement for one on one work with a trained professional who specializes in disordered eating, eating disorders, and trauma. While you’re going through this program, I highly recommend also working with another practitioner. If you would like more one on one support from me or looking for a referral, email me at support@stephaniemara.com.

We will absolutely also explore a new relationship with your body image that will support with making the body feel safer to inhabit as you begin relating with your body and its shape in new ways.

You will have access to the recordings and material forever so you get to take your time going through this program. We will have a relationship with our food and body our entire lives. To be here on earth we need to be in a body and to keep this body alive it needs to be nourished with food. You can think of going through this program as an ongoing commitment to continue to deepen into relationship with your food and body again and again.

I get it! So much fear can arise when stepping into something new. You’re not alone in your fear. Fear may continue to be a part of your journey here and you will be supported in how to be with your fear in ways that don’t feel so overwhelming.

Yes, you do! You will have access to the recordings after the program is over.

After you purchase the program, you will receive a purchase confirmation in your inbox with the link to sign in with the login and password you created when you purchased the program. You can then sign onto your program site where all recordings will be uploaded.
