You’re keeping the marriage going.
You’re managing life, family, work.
You still love each other.
But behind it all…
There’s distance.
There’s tension.
There’s a growing emptiness you don’t want to talk about—but can’t ignore.
At Nuna Holistic Retreat Center in Sarasota, we work with couples who are trying to keep the marriage together—but are losing the felt sense of being with each other.
Not because the love is gone.
Because the nervous system is stuck—and intimacy can’t thrive there.
When Holding the Marriage Together Becomes the Pattern
Many couples in this place say:
“We love each other, but we feel like we’re drifting.”
“We’re teammates more than lovers now.”
“We both want more—but don’t know how to get there.”
You’ve done the right things: communicating better, managing conflict, creating structure.
But if your bodies are holding old stress, resentment, or shutdown patterns—closeness won’t land.
Why?
Because intimacy requires a nervous system that feels safe, open, and connected—not one locked in survival.
At Nuna, we specialize in Somatic Healing and Emotional Healing for couples ready to move from “managing the marriage” back to feeling in love again.
Our sessions include:
Somatic Massage & Bodywork to release tension that blocks physical closeness
Somatic De-Armoring to unwind layers of emotional protection and survival mode
Somatic Coaching for Relationships and Intimacy to rebuild trust, warmth, and desire—not through effort, but through nervous system repair
Holistic Somatic Healing sessions to help both partners soften, open, and re-engage with each other on a felt level
This is not about trying harder.
It’s about helping your bodies feel safe enough to want connection again.
A Couple’s Turning Point
A couple in their late 40s came to us after years of “working on the marriage.”
They loved each other. But they felt like roommates managing life.
“We don’t fight,” they said.
“We just don’t feel like lovers anymore.”
Through somatic healing sessions, they discovered that their nervous systems were stuck in a chronic state of guardedness—blocking the flow of warmth and intimacy.
As their bodies released, so did the relational distance.
They began to laugh again. Touch again. Feel again.
She told us:
“I thought we needed more therapy. What we needed was to feel safe in our bodies—together.”
He said:
“Now I remember why I fell in love with her—not just with my head, but with my body.”
Why the Body Leads in Rebuilding Marital Connection
When the nervous system is dysregulated, intimacy feels threatening—even in loving relationships
The vagus nerve—essential for trust and closeness—must be re-engaged through somatic safety
Somatic healing restores each partner’s capacity for emotional and physical openness
When your bodies shift, your relationship transforms.
You Don’t Have to Keep Holding It All Alone
You’ve worked hard on your marriage.
Now it’s time to let your bodies work with you—not against you.
