Are you feeling overstimulated and disconnected from yourself?
If you’re looking to slow down, tune into your body, and rediscover the joy of being alive through movement, nature, and deep self-awareness, this one’s for you!
In this week’s episode, Aimee Takaya sits down with Jai Knight and Saewon to explore how modern life affects our nervous systems—and how reconnecting with nature and somatic practices can bring us back into balance.
Together, they take us through:
- How overstimulation fuels anxiety and impacts our well-being
- How nature and somatics can calm an overstimulated nervous system
- Jai Knight’s shift from toxic art materials to natural alternatives for healing
- Saewon’s deep connection to flower essences and intuitive plant wisdom
- Why intuition and embodiment are more powerful than memorization
- Aimee’s personal transformation through somatic movement
And so much more!
