321: Letting the Body Lead the Way w/Tamara

In today’s coaching call, Julianne helps Tamara navigate discomfort arising at the idea of re-opening her marriage. Not only is Tamara struggling with insecurities at opening the marriage again, she also hopes to share her open relationship journey online but fears the potential reactions of friends and family. She mourns the ideal picture of marriage she wanted for herself, but knows that the relationship will be nourished by an open dynamic.   Tamara is doing hard work uprooting the ingrained ideals of a perfect relationship. She hopes to grieve and move on to what’s next–even if it means seeking some of her needs away from her husband. Julianne takes Tamara through a long somatic process titrating her nervous system and connecting with her body in order to truly feel her emotions. She also leads her through a polarity integration to address the pressure Tamara feels to be perfect and the way it conflicts with her personal rejection of perfectionism.   Through holding space for Tamara and letting her body lead the way, Julianne helps Tamara come to a place of acceptance in her open marriage and together they release perfectionist pressure in favor of freedom.
