BIOGRAPHY
Researcher, founder of SomaBody Trauma-Informed Pleasure Work, and author of the book Fawn: When No Looks Like Yes, Nischa Phair is educating us on fawning – when we sacrifice our authenticity to gain affection – and its detriment to our relationships. As an abusive relationship survivor, Nischa dives into the influence of stress triggers on the body, plus the impacts of toxic dating culture, and how we can learn to take back control of our power. 
SHOWNOTES
Nischa has been in tune with her body since early childhood development and how stress responses and triggers feel in her tissues on a cellular level within her body
Nischa started as a yoga teacher after a corporate career in fashion and started to learn how she turned up in her body and feel movement with dance and how this was a reflection of her life
Every behaviour on the outside has a corresponding nervous tissue state for example can be seen as fight or flight and fawned responses are how our body is expressing on the outside
Nischa talks about fawning in short-term and long-term relationships
Consent is discussed under the fawning microscope
Somatic comfort and reorienting this and being comfortable in your own skin is Nischa’s definition of happiness
Nischa’s morning routine is drinking water, grounding and centering exercises
The top three things that bring Nischa joy is being alive, dancing, and orgasms
Her one meal left to eat would be veggies and dark chocolate
Her top books are Bone, Breath and Gesture by Don Hanlon Johnson, and To Kill A Mockingbird
Her fantasy dinner dates would be Jeff Goldblum and Maya Angelou
Laughter is important to regulate the nervous system and her dog makes her laugh along with the laugh off challenge that she does with Carla
Nischa’s gratitude practice is getting in tune with her body and feeling into the gratitude in a somatic way
