Power Quotes From Sarah Baldwin
"People don’t change because they feel great. They change when the pain of suffering becomes bigger than the fear of change itself." — Sarah Baldwin
"When we do parts work, we have to go back to the state dependent memory in order to resolve it. That means we have to time travel. So we will feel the exact feelings, sensations, and have the same thoughts as that tiny child we once used to be." — Sarah Baldwin
"A protective part's job is to ensure that your most vulnerable parts never experience what they experienced in the past again. So if we are not the parent to these parts, our nervous system shows up as the ultimate parent in the form of a protective part." — Sarah Baldwin

About Sarah Baldwin
Sarah Baldwin is a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and trauma‑trained life coach who transformed her own decades-long experience of complex trauma into a mission to guide others toward nervous‑system healing and embodied resilience.
After conventional therapy and self-education left her stuck, somatic work became the turning point, shifting her past to the past and restoring her presence in life.
She is certified in Somatic Experiencing through Peter Levine’s program, trained in Polyvagal Theory via the Polyvagal Institute, and skilled in attachment, inner-child, and parts work, along with trauma-informed life coaching trained by Martha Beck.
Her work brings together the latest neuroscience and Polyvagal Theory to help people shift out of survival responses, in states of fight, freeze, or shutdown, and into empowered living with more ease, choice, connection, and creativity
