Somatic Preparation: Pre-Bariatric Mind-Body Workbook

A 21-Day Body Wisdom Journey to Prepare Mind, Body & Energy for Surgery and Beyond

Deciding on bariatric surgery is brave. Your body has carried you this far — this workbook honors that.

Inhale peace. Exhale chaos.

Pre-surgery preparation isn't just about a liver-shrinking diet or a checklist. It's about preparing your nervous system, your relationship with nourishment, and your energy for a profound transformation.

This is NOT a diet plan. This is your somatic Reiki and body-awareness companion to create safety, clarity, and self-compassion before your new chapter begins.

Created by The Divine Exhale, this professional, printable workbook guides you through the emotional and energetic work your surgical team doesn't cover — so you arrive at surgery day grounded, not just compliant.

INSIDE YOU'LL FIND:

Week 1: Awareness — Mindful Noticing (Days 1-7)
Learn to notice without judgment. Daily sensation scans, eating pattern awareness, morning grounding rituals, and compassionate journaling to understand what food has truly been coping for.

Week 2: Release — Grieve & Let Go (Days 8-14)
Allow grief and gratitude to coexist. Release rituals for foods and beliefs you are saying goodbye to, heart-opening Reiki practices, boundary protection, and emotional mapping to honor the letting-go process.

Week 3: Prepare & Restore — Build New Rituals (Days 15-21)
Build rituals that will carry you beyond surgery. Pause-and-breathe before meals, protein-first mindfulness, sleep sanctuary practices, and your personal Surgery Intention Letter.
