Reconnecting with My Body

In the latest episode of the Unfiltered Podcast - "First Experiences, Beginning the Work," my co-host Crystal and I delve into our personal journeys of reconnecting with our bodies and the groundbreaking transformations that ensued.

It's about turning inward, peeling back the layers, and beginning the profound work of embodiment.

The Awakening: Discovering Disconnection Through Photography

Crystal's expertise in photography revealed to her the pervasive issue of women's disconnection from their bodies. This resonated deeply with my own experiences.

I joined the conversation sharing how I too, before this work, felt a startling chasm between my physical and emotional self — something I knew needed addressing.

Transformative Tools: Hypnotherapy and Breathwork

As Crystal discussed her eye-opening experience with hypnotherapy and breathwork, I saw parts of my own story reflected in hers.

When she spoke about how these practices improved her confidence and helped her tap into a well of emotions that had long been sealed away, I felt a sense of kinship.

My journey, too, had been one of awakening — and I trusted in the process that was helping both of us heal.

Emotion in Motion: The Alchemy of Somatic Practices

Digging into the crux of somatic work, I elucidated the necessity of breathwork for releasing pent-up emotions.

It's a process that invites transformation and alchemy, bypassing the cognitive mind and speaking directly to the body's wisdom.

As Crystal shared her cathartic release during a breathwork session, it underscored the power of emotional movement and the clarity it can bring.

My Story: Finding Integration Through Somatic Healing

My own path led me to the beauty of somatic healing and the rediscovery of inhabiting my body.

From breathwork to sensual movement, I learned to listen closely to the undercurrents of wisdom that my body was whispering.

Earlier, I had focused too narrowly on the mind, leaving the body's story untold – a tale that carried immense healing potential.

The Supportive Embrace of a Healing Circle

Both Crystal and I can attest to the challenges one might face when engaging with breathwork, but within a supportive community – such as a women's healing circle – those challenges morph into opportunities for growth.

I remember translating the discomfort I felt during breath work into an embracement of the inherent feminine flow within me.

Conclusion: Breathwork as Revival

By the end of our sharing on the podcast, it became crystal clear that breathwork isn't just about breathing – it is a revival of all that lies dormant within us.

It's a stark departure from conventional healing, encouraging a holistic and embodied approach that truly empowers. Sensuality, the breath, and emotional liberation intertwine, teaching us that fulfillment emanates from within.
