Abstract
Abstract The field of somatics has expanded tremendously since Hanna introduced the term in the 1970’s. This reflective paper has evolved from my experience as a practitioner and theorist of somatics over the last 30 years. As such I will address the broadness of the field of somatics by looking at five pathways undertaken by somatic practitioners: social, ecological, spiritual, health and well-being and education. Possibilities and constraints within each of these pathways are critically examined, from an intimate, embodied and socio-political perspective, in order to bring awareness to possible blind spots associated with each pathway. In doing so, I attempt to counter overzealous stances towards somatics while at the same time recognizing and valuing its tremendous potential to generate individual and collective agency.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
