Today I want to come back to the topic we talked about in the very first episode: getting out of the head and into the body. It’s this practice of shifting out of our thinking mind & into more actively focusing on the feelings in our bodies. Like: The quality of our breath, the rhythm of our heart, tension or relaxation in our muscles, discomfort or comfort anywhere in our bodies, noticing our emotions which live inside our bodies, listening to where we might hear our gut instinct or our intuition speak to us quietly.
The body is so full of wisdom. It’s constantly sending us signals to make sure we are staying safe, surviving life and reacting as needed. We get to know it more intimately, little by little, by simply being willing to witness, listen, and act from a place of inner knowing. These signs can be sending us signals to get us to rest more, to make discernment in certain situations, to speak up and say no to things that don’t feel right to us, & say yes to things that light us up.
This becomes more familiar, the more we practice it. We come back to this practice of embodiment again and again to gradually build increased awareness and understanding of the subtleties that go on inside us.
Today I’ll guide us through a gentle movement practice to increase this awareness of embodiment.
When you’re ready, find a comfortable position for your body, seated if possible & with back support if you’d like.
As always, take what works, use what feels good, and leave the rest.
