In this episode, we dive deep into the concept of embodiment, focusing on how dance serves as a profound and sophisticated technology for being fully present in our bodies. Carly shares her personal journey of discovering the power of embodiment through dance, especially ecstatic dance, and how it's been a vital practice for releasing stagnant energy and emotions. With modern life bombarding us with overwhelming information, Carly explores how practices like dance, breathwork, shaking and movement help regulate our nervous systems and move energy that might otherwise build up and cause stress or emotional blowups. She also reflects on the importance of creating space in our daily lives for these embodiment practices to help us process trauma, maintain emotional balance, and reclaim a sense of trust and power in our bodies.
