If you're a woman (or anyone!) on a growth and healing journey it's important to know that there is more out there than psychotherapy and counseling. Personally, I'm a big fan of well aligned therapy and it's missing some essential pieces of the puzzle. When it comes to processing work there are two main approaches... Top Down - mind based work that addresses thoughts, feelings, experiences and belief through talking, inquiry, reframing and awareness. Bottom Up - body based work that addresses thoughts, feelings, experiences and belief through movement, body inquiry, sensation awareness and somatic tools. You need both AND the body based work actually makes the biggest impact. 💡 Believe it or not, when it comes to trauma and emotional well-being so much of that boils down to what your body and nervous system are holding. It's definitely helpful to think through, talk it out and reframe things...and research shows it's even more helpful long-term if we can process through our bodies. Because your thoughts, actions and beliefs are directly tied to the state that your nervous system is in - so if you can shift that - you can make lasting change. Curious about HOW to take a body based approach to growth and healing? Check out the Soulful Stretch Community. It's part on-demand yoga and somatic healing library , part community & coaching with me to uplift, guide and motivate you. Currently, the community is closed and will reopen in the months ahead.
