Rebuilding our capacity to feel good again, requires us to learn to feel at all, and to feel for stability and safety in the present, so that we might build up an inner well of support that can help us hold the weight of whatever pain we’ve been numbing from inside.

One of the best (if not only?) ways we build a sense of felt safety within, is by supporting our nervous system to be present in the here-and-now, when it is safe and comfortable enough to do so.

Presence –truly being in the here-and-now with what is– is one of those things that’s “simple not easy” though, for so many reasons we won’t get into right now.

This video offers a series of 3 variations of "presence practice” using proprioception, exteroception, and (when you’re ready) interoception.

Before you dive in, know that you’ll need a ball, a book, and a safe place to do these practices without the worry of being watched.

I hope you enjoy! If you found this helpful, please leave a rating or review in whatever podcast player you're listening on!
