In this episode, I dive into a topic that's been feeling incredibly present for me lately and one that I often see in my clients: the overwhelming sense of exhaustion that can arise during an embodiment or somatic practice.
Join me as I explore two key reasons why you might encounter this exhaustion and how to approach it with compassion and curiosity. We'll discuss:
- The pervasive issue of depletion and burnout in our culture and how it impacts our personal growth journeys.
- The importance of rest and nourishment as fundamental components of any spiritual or personal development practice.
- How our nervous systems create resistance to protect us and why we might feel tired when confronting deeper, shadowy aspects of ourselves.
- Practical insights on staying with and moving through the exhaustion to uncover deeper layers of wisdom within.
If you're finding yourself constantly tired, burnt out, or struggling to connect with your embodiment practice, this episode is for you. Learn how to honor your body's needs, navigate the depths of your fatigue, and create a more rooted, nourishing foundation for your life.
I also share a bit about my recent personal journey through illness and recovery, and how it's reinforced the vital need for true rest and nourishment.
Tune in and let's explore together how to embrace and move through these challenging but essential aspects of our embodiment journey.
