  • You've probably heard that in order to heal, you need to feel your emotions. This is absolutely true, but it can be hard to know HOW exactly to do that.

    In our fast-paced world, most of us are lost in our thoughts, disconnected from our bodies, and stuffing our true feelings.

    In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you on a soothing journey inward with a somatic meditation designed specifically to help you feel your emotions in a deep, body-centered way. This isn’t about getting rid of feelings or over-analyzing them. It’s about truly feeling and understanding them, allowing for natural emotional release and relief.

  • When life feels like a whirlwind of to-do lists, responsibilities, and emotional turbulence, it’s easy to feel consumed by overwhelm. This sense of being swamped can cloud our judgment, limit our choices, and leave us feeling trapped in a cycle of stress and anxiety.

    But what if, instead of trying to eliminate the overwhelming factors, we could change our relationship with the overwhelm itself? What if we could create space within ourselves to breathe, shift the feelings of overwhelm, and regain our clarity? This is the transformative power of today’s meditation!

    Guided by nervous system specialist Raquel DuBois, this somatic practice invites you to explore how to change your relationship with overwhelm. Through this guided somatic practice, you will gently tune into your body to decrease your internal tension and find more clarity within.

    By doing so, you create a sense of spaciousness within your nervous system, allowing you to step back and see your challenges through a more aligned and peaceful perspective. This newfound inner space provides the flexibility to navigate your overwhelm with more ease and resilience.

    00:00 - Create internal spaciousness to manage overwhelm

  • Strengthening your mind-body connection is a powerful way to tap into the wisdom of your body and use your deepening body awareness as a tool for self-understanding, emotional well-being, and personal growth.

    When we learn to attune to our inner sensations, we connect more deeply with who we truly are, and how we truly feel. We also gain perspective on our emotional patterns and knee-jerk reactions to life.

    Plus, connecting with your body regulates your nervous system and tones your vagus nerve.

    In this guided somatic meditation to strengthen your mind-body connection, you’ll practice effective techniques for turning your attention inward, increasing your interoceptive awareness, and (as always) regulating your nervous system!

    Iffirmations for when you feel stuck:

    What if it’s okay that I’m feeling stuck right now?

    What if it’s totally normal to sometimes feel stuck, frozen, or confused?

    What would it be like to soften my heart to myself and this feeling in this moment?

    What would it feel like to embrace all parts of myself, even the parts that feel stuck?

    What would it be like to be more gentle with myself?

    What if I’m more resilient, adaptable, and capable than I realize?

    What if I can welcome this moment in life, even if it feels difficult?

    What if I can stop fighting with this stuck feeling and instead understand it more compassionately?

    What if I can see this stuck feeling as an invitation to go deeper?

    What if this feeling actually makes sense in a way?

    Sentence leads to understand why you’re stuck:

    What if this feeling makes sense in a way because…

    Because what I’m really feeling deep down is…

    And what feels most stuck to me is…

    What I really want or need when I feel this way is…

    What I’m realizing now is…

    How it feels to realize that is…

    Giving voice to anything else that wants to be known until that feels complete.

    Iffirmations to move forward:

    What if it’s safe for me to begin to move out of these stuck patterns now?

    What if it’s safe for me to move forward toward what I truly desire?

    What would it be like to take a step forward?

    What if I can simply move forward one step at a time?

    What if one step at a time is enough?

    What if I could move forward with greater ease and clarity than before?

    What would it feel like to get unstuck and move forward without forcing or fighting?

    What if I can find new, more aligned motivation within me that will help me move forward?

    More and more, I’m open to the possibility of moving forward.

    More and more, I’m moving forward one step at a time.
