Reflections on slowing down, tuning into our soma, creating space and building capacity with Flavia Jimenez.

This week features a conversation between Julie Cusmariu and Flavia Jimenez about the Embodied Social Justice certificate program; take aways, insights gained and what remains to unpack and integrate into life, personally and professionally for them both.

We each sought out collaboration on the project and found a connection point through our work as coaches interested in embodiment and somatic awareness for ourselves and the individuals we work with daily.

00:28:30- Flavia shares Insights on ’slowing down’ (as evoked by Resma Menakem in the ESJ Certificate Program), creating space and building capacity as well as her work experience as a lawyer and advocate.
00:38: 00 - On building capacity and the art of holding space
00:30:59- How do we gift ourselves space?
00:54:00- Stumbling upon the title of the podcast offered by Flavia. What if your practice is the interruption?
00:55:00- Flavia walked Julie through a gentle somatic inquiry and practice in real time.
01:00:00 -What it means to have your head below the heart.
001:04:00- Defining the Soma (as explained by Kelsey Blackwell).
