What the heck is embodiment, and why should you care about it anyway?

In this episode, I walk you through my personal journey of coming back into my body, why I did it, and how it can be transformative for those of us who have lived our lives "outside of our bodies" (hint: guilt or worrying about the judgment of others is an indicator!)

I also share the science behind why embodiment matters, particularly when it comes to making change in our lives in a way that sticks. A neuroscientist I've been working with says that 80% of the messages to your brain come from the neck-down!

Moreover, the vagus nerve, which carries sensory messages to and from our brain, has a major impact on our memory. And yet, most "mindset" work only focuses on the brain alone.  We house SO much physical and emotional memory in pieces of us that we don't ever associate with our brains!

So, basically, being embodied is really freaking important.

In this episode, I also walk you through an exercise that can help you to begin to gently come into your body through feeling joy. If you'd like the written instructions for how to do this Joy Expansion activity, you can get a free download by joining my email list at JenLiss.com
