Yay! I recorded my group practicum yesterday, the final assessment for my Somatic Educator for Women course. 🌿
Something truly amazing happened during the session that I’ve been sitting with. For a long time, situations where I had to speak, share or facilitate in front of others would bring a familiar sensation in my body. A heavy, dragging tension rising from my solar plexus into my throat, gathering into a big, hard ball of energy. Finding my words could feel difficult, and I was often so caught up in what was happening inside me that being present was a challenge BUT this time was different.
As I sat with the beautiful women who had joined me in a cosy, welcoming space, I felt relaxed. My words flowed easily. I felt safe, connected and able to settle into the experience, sharing the wisdom that has been unfolding through this work AND that familiar tension never arrived. 🤯 It didn’t happen by accident. Over the past 15 months, I’ve taken a deep dive into my nervous system, somatic safety, shadow work and a whole lot of personal exploration.
I’m feeling so much gratitude for the women who showed up, trusted the space and shared the experience with me. You helped create something that felt genuinely connecting. 💦💕🙏🏻
This is why I do this work. I believe there’s so much wisdom within us that we’ve forgotten how to access. As we reconnect with ourselves, we can begin to discover new ways of relating to others and the world around us. I believe in those moments of connection, we find a little more safety, belonging and flow. 🤎
