In this visualization we envision the ribcage as a shelter for both rest and play.

This one goes out to Ruby.

Feeling a little lighter?

Let’s amplify that sensation with this visualization to help you somaticize the sensation of freedom.

Find a quiet place where you can be still. Listen and follow along in your body.

Work your head’s inner teardrop until it glows up your brain.   

This one’s like a brain massage. But anywhere you got a gland you can do this. Don’t stop here. Google glands and keep going. 

Find a quiet place where you can be still. Listen and follow along in your body.

When tension builds up in our nervous system, we feel it as pain in our bones, joints, muscles, and it clutters our focus and ability to de-stress. Try this short visualization and see how you feel. Be sure to listen when you are still and quiet and able to follow along in your body.

The heart is the empress of your body. Let your heart be the diva that she is and get her nails done (metaphorically, of course).

Your sacrum is a shovel-shaped bone between your spine and your tailbone. It is cupped like a palm. Settle in to a peaceful vacation deep in your own body. Listen in a quiet, still place and follow along in your body.

Replenish yourself with the flavors of the earth. Help protect and repair the planet. And maybe support your local juice joint?

Approximately 2/3 of our bodies are water. In Chinese Medicine, water is the yin energy that anchors us, calms us, and replenishes our nervous system. Take a plunge into some fresh natural river imagery to refill your 67%.
