Lisa Jacobson is a psychotherapist, somatic guide, and facilitator who helps individuals and groups slow down enough to hear what’s actually alive beneath habit, identity, and urgency. Her work sits at the intersection of psychology, embodied spirituality, and relational presence, with a particular love for spaces where meaning emerges through experience rather than instruction.
Lisa is less interested in helping people “fix” themselves and more curious about what becomes possible when we create the conditions for deeper listening—within the body, between people, and in community. She brings a gentle, grounded approach shaped by over two decades of yoga practice, group facilitation, and work with highly capable, thoughtful humans navigating complexity, grief, and change.
At gatherings like Wild Goose, Lisa serves as a container-holder rather than a lecturer, inviting co-creative experiences rooted in presence, nervous system awareness, and shared humanity.
UNBOUND: Presence Lab is a co-creative, embodied experience inviting participants to slow down and listen beneath the habits, identities, and urgencies that shape everyday life. In these not-normal times, many of us feel bound not only by external systems, but by internalized stories and nervous-system patterns that keep us braced or reactive.
This is not a talk or a performance—it’s a shared exploration. Through gentle somatic inquiry, quiet moments of inner attention, and simple relational prompts, participants are invited to notice what is present in the body before moving to interpretation or action. Meaning is allowed to emerge rather than being imposed.
Together, we’ll explore what it means to loosen prescriptive stories, how presence itself can be an act of unbinding, and what becomes possible when we listen deeply to ourselves and one another.
Participants may engage in guided inner noticing, optional paired or small-group sharing, and collective reflection. Everything is invitational; there is no pressure to speak, share, or “arrive” anywhere. The facilitator’s role is to hold a spacious container that supports safety, curiosity, and emergence.
From what are we UNBOUND? Urgency and over-identification.
For what are we UNBOUND? Deeper listening, shared humanity, and more spacious ways of being together.
No prior experience required—just a willingness to pause.
