Your body is a library of everything you’ve ever felt. It’s time to learn the language.
True self-care isn’t found in a temporary escape; it’s found in the steady work of nervous system regulation. In Holding Time, yoga teacher and somatic guide Laura Cole reveals how to merge the ancient physical discipline of yoga with the reflective power of mindful writing to create a lasting internal shift.
Our history lives far deeper than any photo album. It resides in the nervous system—etched into the rhythm of our breath and the tension in our bones. Laura lived this truth while navigating chronic illness, burnout, and deep grief. In those quiet spaces, she discovered that the goal wasn't just to "reset" the body for a day, but to rewire it for a lifetime.
Holding Time is a somatic roadmap for those ready to move past survival mode and into a state of physical and emotional flow. Introducing the Ink & Asana™ method, this book provides the exact tools you need to bridge the gap between movement and memoir.
Inside this guide to healing and self-discovery, you will find a daily practice to:
Access the Wise Guide Inside: Use the foundations of yoga to quiet the noise of stress, anxiety, or chronic pain.
Write to Heal: Turn the inner dialogue of your body into a mirror to find clarity, purpose, and emotional release.
Map Your Story: Use your energetic blueprint to descend gracefully into your inner world so you can navigate life’s complexities with compassion.
Nervous System Regulation: Move from "fight or flight" into a state of grounded, sovereign peace.
To honor your story is to unlock your peace and finally hold time—and in the holding, find your way home.
“Laura combines two practices that are dear to my heart: writing and yoga. Yoga gives us the ability to connect to our intuition, helping to bring forth what is within us. Weaving her own story throughout to help give context, Laura makes tangible what can feel theoretical. I would highly recommend this book to yogis and writers alike!" - CLARA ROBERTS-OSS, International Vinyasa Yoga Teacher & Founder of Practice With Clara
