Are you stuck in a cycle of burnout, constantly overwhelmed by external demands, and disconnected from your true self? Join us today and discover how to leverage the power of your body to regain balance, resilience, and authenticity in today's fast-paced world.

In this episode, I sit down with Jay Moon Fields, M.A., a somatic coach and educator, to explore the profound ways in which we can reconnect with our bodies in a world that increasingly pulls us into a state of constant mental overdrive. 

Jay Fields, M.A. is a leading educator, coach and author. Over a half million people have taken her courses, and her book Teaching People Not Poses has sold over ten thousand copies and is used by yoga teacher training programs globally. For over twenty years, she has taught the principles and practices of embodied social and emotional intelligence to individuals and groups.

She received her BA in Psychosocial Health and Human Movement from the College of William and Mary and her master's in Integral Transformative Education from Prescott College.

Jay shares her insights on how technology, societal expectations, and a 24-hour culture have severed our connection to the wisdom of our bodies, leading to burnout, anxiety, and a sense of being disconnected.

Together, we dive into practical strategies for grounding ourselves, harnessing the power of "felt resources," and facing the uncomfortable emotions we've been avoiding. Whether you're new to the concept of somatic coaching or looking for actionable steps to break free from the burnout cycle, this episode is packed with valuable takeaways to help you reclaim your body's innate intelligence and live more fully.

In this Episode:

• The impact of pervasive technology and the 24-hour cycle on our connection to our bodies.
• How the brain prioritizes external stimuli over internal sensations, and the consequences of this disconnect.
• The role of "felt resources" in creating layers of experience that help us manage overwhelming emotions.
• Practical, micro-moment techniques to reconnect with your body throughout the day.
• The power of acknowledging your emotions with phrases like "I don't want to feel this" and "Of course I feel this way."
• How to begin facing deeper emotional and physical discomforts that you've been avoiding.
