In the room
What a session can feel like
- i.
Resourcing and grounding
Finding anchors of safety, in the room and within the body, before anything difficult is touched.
- ii.
Family pauses
Stopping mid-conversation to notice breath, sensation and posture — yours and each other's.
- iii.
Orienting and movement
Noticing the space around you, and how your bodies move with one another.
- iv.
Completing old responses
Letting the body safely finish fight, flight or freeze responses left over from the past.
Try this now
Where do you
feel it?
Bring to mind a conversation at home that didn't go well. Not the words — what your body did while it was happening. Tap wherever you notice something. Nothing is saved or sent.
Tap a point on the figure.
What we mean
Embodiment
in plain words
Moving out of your head and into real-time experience: sensations, emotions and the quiet cues your body gives you. Feeling things as a body, rather than watching your body from the outside.
Exteroception
Sensing outward: sight, sound, touch and smell. How you take in the world around you.
Proprioception
Sensing where your body is in space, and how it meets gravity.
Interoception
Sensing inward: heartbeat, hunger, tension and breath — the signals from inside you.
