In this solo episode, I am talking about the practice of embodiment. This is one of my favorite topics because when I really understood embodiment and started putting it into practice, it completely shifted my relationship with my body. The reason I teach embodiment is because you have to be in the body to heal your relationship with your body. You can’t do it from the mind. 

In this episode, we explore:

• Why negative body image is a disruption in embodiment. 
• Why it’s important to talk about embodiment rather than focusing on body image. 
• What it means to be embodied.
• Why most women are living a disembodied life.
• A practice that will support you to start to come home to your body.
