Welcome back to Threshold Moments, dear listener. In today's Mini Musing, I share my how my journey into somatics began with my experience of chronic pain as an athlete.

I tell you the story of the trip to Hawaii where I first encountered alternative healing practices. And I share the lessons I learned about feedback at my first post-college job training athletes.

I also unpack moments where feedback might be immediately helpful, and times when we might want to slow our sharing down and bring our body along for the process.

What does life look like when we start to notice our emotions as messengers instead of over-identifying with them?

In today's Mini Musing, I'm exploring this question from both a scientific and a spiritual perspective. I share Candace Pert's work on the molecules of emotion, and I ask what it might mean to change the vibration of our cells while honoring our feelings as they arrive.

Then I revisit a recent episode of the Twelfth House podcast about archetype embodiment, and I explore how we might try on new archetypes to amplify different energies in our day-to-day lives.

Join me as I weave a path through our emotions, our perceptions, and our selves. Then DM me on Instagram @sarahtacyt and let me know how today's episode landed with you.

Welcome, dear listeners. In this episode, I'm speaking with one of my beloved teachers, Brigit Viksnins.

Brigit is a life partner, a stepmother, mother, and grandmother. She is the creator of the international training program Alchemical Alignment, which is protocol-free, spirit-led, experiential somatic modality that draws on a range of bodywork traditions that she has trained in and is deeply experienced in.

Bridget is also a first-generation Latvian-American from a lineage of healers, midwives, authors, and teachers. Her parents fled from their homeland during World War II, becoming refugee immigrant children under bombs and in the displaced persons camps on their way to the USA. Now Brigit regularly travels to post-Soviet Latvia to relate to the land, eat traditional foods, steep in the wisdom, arts, and crafts of her ancestors, and also share her skills.

Together, Brigit and I have an open, unfolding conversation about trauma resolution, ancestral patterns, stabilizing our nervous systems, calming through co-resonance, and self-love as a relational practice. We also discuss:

• The journey of Alchemical Alignment
• Finding Heaven & Hell on earth
• Cultivating a range of pace & velocity in our lives
• Breaking trauma resolution into tiny, doable bits
• The necessity of contraction & having healthy dark in our range
• Sharing stillness to create co-resonance between bodies
• When self-love can be self-less

This conversation is full of wisdom, and I hope you'll listen with an open heart, then visit the Alchemical Alignment website to learn more about any topics you aren't familiar with.

Welcome, dear ones. In today's mini musing, I explore widening our perspective, finding our center, and chakra meditations for self-connection.

I begin by revisiting my reflections on widening and discussing the power of expanding our perspective to help us regulate our system and alleviate feelings of anxiety or threat. Then I explore the importance of narrowing in and finding our center, as both expansion and contraction are necessary for balance and healing.

To support you in returning to center, I share a hand motion and meditation taught to me by Brigit Viksnins and Karen Kenney.

Join me to learn an embodied practice for moving from wide to center, where we'll travel the chakras together from our crown to our root and back again.
