Glow with Gerly

Bio

Originating from a small Nordic country called Estonia, curiosity has always been an integral part of Gerly’s essence. After finishing her studies in civil engineering and establishing a career in urban planning, Gerly felt that there was more to life than meets the eye. Although the rational part of her mind was set on the original “safe” plan to work herself up in the field of landscape architecture, her courageous soul was calling her forward toward a life full of freedom and adventures.

Gerly had already begun her journey of inner exploration almost a decade ago which was put to motion by her profound personal grief and many other major life changes she was presented with. Little did she know that these seeds of self-discovery sown in all of those years would bloom into a vibrant career shift after a bold leap and a complete 180-degree turn she took later in her life to pursue the journey of somatic work.

Motivated by a desire to understand and heal the roots of her disordered eating and self image struggles, Gerly turned inwards and immersed herself in the world of somatic work after years of trying to find answers from the *outside* and figure it out from the standpoint of pure intellect. The exploration revealed a profound truth — beyond the surface of coping mechanisms, there were old childhood trauma wounds echoing the unspoken messages from her body.

This revelation triggered a radical shift. Now a nomadic soul, Gerly travels across the globe, embracing the magic of life. Somatic work has become her guiding light, leading her to emotional mastery, spiritual growth, and a deepened connection with herself. Trust in the universe, curiosity toward life, and the courage to make bold moves have become her guiding principles.

Having found the strength to embark on this transformative journey, Gerly is dedicated to sharing the wealth of knowledge, healing, and guidance with those seeking their own path to authenticity and self-love.

Gerly is able to understand and connect with her clients on a deep level. In her work, she uses techniques that focus on the mind-body connection to help her clients overcome their traumas and become more aware of their thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. She uses modalities such as inner child work, parts work, trauma healing, guided meditations, energetic work, nervous system and emotional regulation, and other somatic practices, which involve exploring and healing past traumas that are stored in the body.

Gerly's approach as a trauma-informed somatic coach is to create a safe and supportive environment for her clients, where they can explore their experiences and emotions without judgment.

Through her work, Gerly helps her clients develop a greater understanding of the roots of their traumas, and to release any stored emotions or sensations that may be causing them feel stuck. This enables her clients to overcome their past struggles and live more fully in the present moment, with greater self-awareness, self-love, self-acceptance, and self-compassion.
