Wow are we swirling around in our heads these days. Feeling with the unknown has an effect on how we see ourselves, as individuals, humans, and society. We are grieving the old ways of self and security, and having to tap into different resources to keep us feeling safe and centered.
We cannot escape the world, but we can let go of our grip on the outer world to find steadiness in our own power.
This does not have to be monumental, but it is a process of bringing you back to yourself.
“There is no real security except for whatever you build inside yourself.” -Gilda Radner
So rather than being stuck in our meaning-making heads, how do we connect with the entirety of ourselves and allow for the unknown to exist? Our intellect can only makes since of things based on our past experiences, but it knows nothing of the future, or of your heart, unless you are bringing your soul into the conversation.
Body. Embodiment. Feel.
So rather than me giving suggestions, I want to ask:
What does it feel like to be embodied?
What does it feel like to be grounded?
How do you find groundedness?
Do you want to be grounded?
How can does groundedness lead to expansion?
What does it feel like to dissociate?
When does this happen?
Are you trying to escape something?
(Recognizing your dissociation is a critical step in becoming embodied. noticing your sensations is a path to indisputable truths of who you are.)
How can you be embodied even if you are not grounded?
How can you listen to your body without guilt or shame?
What feels good in your body and how do you experience pleasure?
How and where does pain arise?
What signals does your body give you and how do you listen to them?
These are constant conversations and I have as I navigate my own energy and how I meet the outer world. Please reach out to continue this conversation with me!
