Astrosomatics
The Embodiment Experiment
mind, body & energetic alignment
living our design. embodying our wholeness.
Astrosomatics is a process of using intentional movement training in order to restore alignment across all of our physiology, starting from posture, so that we can shed the layers that inhibit the expression of our most resilient, adaptable, and functional selves. Through the practice of restoring our structurally neutral posture, reconnecting our body's biomechanical rhythms, and allowing ourselves to develop and refine new neurological patterns, we build capacity and resiliency that protects us from the erosion that comes with stress, injury, and dis-ease over time on and within our systems.
This is an invitation to be guided along your path of personal reclamation of your most empowered, authentic self through and in connection with your physical body. Consider this practice as a compliment to all that you are already doing. This isn't about "fixing" - this is about aligning to how you are designed to live.
the embodiment experiment
Hypothesis: Astrosomatics is a guide for embodying our energetic blueprints, in a way that provides inspiration and insights through Human Design frameworks and results through Functional Patterns protocols, in order to create meaningful and unique programs for optimizing energetic and functional flow in our lives – for many years to come.
Experiment: We are meant to be dynamic, and that dynamism is designed to support a functional, connected body as it experiences the stressors, influences, and joys of our environments. Let's give ourselves the permission to test, transform, learn, and become our favourite version of who we want to be.
Methodology:
Background: As a 3/5 Profile in Human Design, the term "Experimenter" means something quite specific. For me (and others with a 3-line in their profile), this coding represents the approach I am designed to take in my life to be most aligned with my blueprint. But the spirit of this is transferable to everyone.
There is no "silver bullet" answer for anything - especially not when it comes to our health, wellness, environment, and routines. Being human means that there is diversity, condition, and uniqueness in every situation and for every body.
We are constantly experimenting! It is in the experimentation that we can discern what works for us, what doesn't resonate, and (most importantly) what we need to change and adjust over time.
The Embodiment Experiment isn't a solution - it's an invitation.
An invitation to leverage a more holistic perspective to live well.
about Functional Patterns
Functional Patterns is a training methodology that was founded in 2006 by CEO Naudi Aguilar. Naudi has conducted seminars globally certifying practitioners like us. We confidently say that Functional Patterns is the best in the fitness industry. Just look at the results achieved worldwide by Functional Patterns practitioners.
What are Functional Patterns?
Unlike any other point in human history, the main health crisis we face is the imbalance within our society and our disconnection from nature. Moving away from natural practices and shifting towards a more modern way of living has greatly affected our ability to move correctly and stay out of pain.
So, how can we achieve balance in a world filled with imbalance? The answer is straightforward: our health depends on how well we adapt to the natural environment. The more harmoniously we coexist with nature, the healthier and more resilient we become. For humans, this means bringing us back to the beneficial aspects of our evolutionary blueprint that made us healthy to begin with.
THE BLUEPRINT
There’s an evolutionary blueprint to how all organisms work and Functional Patterns has been cracking the code in human movement for nearly 15 years. Resulting from tens of thousands of hours in testing, Functional Patterns has pioneered the FP methodology, syncing the physics of our natural environment to our health better than any other system out there.
FP's commitment and conclusion has been to train humans according to their biological movement characteristics: Standing, Walking, Running, and Throwing — The “FP Big 4”. By optimizing these four human functions, achieving better health is not a gamble, but an inevitability. This is what it means to train Functional Patterns.

why Human Design
Human Design is a holistic blueprinting modality that is rooted in astrology and merges several ancient and modern traditions such as the Chinese I Ching, the Judaic Kabbalah, the Hindu-Brahmin chakra system, quantum physics, and biology.
There are many paths we can seek to understand our soul's purpose. I have learned to look to the stars.
My belief is that nothing is “right” or “wrong” - so many situations are coloured simply based on our response, conditioning, beliefs, and experiences. The power of Human Design is that we are given a map to review, consult, and consider what best supports our energetic orientation, not just our social, professional, emotional, mental, or physical perspectives.
While Human Design is extremely complex, there is also magnificent simplicity to honing into any one specific area. When it comes to integration with and within our bodies, I have found great, compounding benefits from recognizing my Type, Authority, and Profile. There is so much depth, richness, and beauty waiting to be discovered through the application of this system. It will be a joy to learn about it together as we go.
