How did you love, before you knew heartbreak? How did you inhabit your body, before you knew shame? Who were you before the world taught you who to be? 

Join Theosophist Benjamin W. Decker and Somatics Coach/Somatics Healing Institute Founder Angelika Drake to uncover why asking these questions is so important in creating and fostering healthy, honest relationships with your body, yourself and with others. 

Tune into this episode to hear about the language the body speaks, the power of letting go of shame, Game Theory as it relates to relationships, along with the Unconcious Need Fulfillment Cycle and how to break free from these unhealthy patterns by looking at our unconscious mind.
