What would help you feel happier in your body right now?

That's all embodied wellbeing IS. We've just been conditioned to endure, to ignore. And worse. Also, The Feel Better Every Day Podcast is coming soon!

IF YOU WERE TO LISTEN TO YOUR BODY RIGHT NOW, WHAT MIGHT IT SAY?

Are you tired? Maybe you can give yourself a nap or promise (and KEEP that promise) yourself early night? Maybe a trauma sensitive yoga nidra will help you in the meantime (you can access several for free through the Feel Better Every Day site and YouTube) as well as brand new ones to support each week’s theme in the Extra Embodied membership.

A day off work?

A ride on a rollercoaster? (I’ve never in my LIFE wanted to go on a rollercoaster but woke up this morning thinking it could be fun!)

Perhaps you’re hungry?

In need of a good stretch or hug or some kind of movement?

Maybe you just want to drink some water?

Go out and open your arms wide to the wind (here in the west of Ireland) and imagine it taking ALL your strains and stresses and sending them deep into the earth to be recycled for the benefit of the planet? (Am hoping for a soul cleansing and very careful and safe sea swim later but it’s so windy, I think a walk will be safer.)

Perhaps you’re not tired but want to curl up under the duvet and sit or lie in the dark for a while. Let your nervous system reset.

Maybe you want to dance or sing?

HOW ABOUT YOU?

All subscribers can comment below

And if you’re Extra Embodied, you can join the private chat, too (and, of course, we’ll be discussing this in the live self care coaching calls today at 12.30pm, 5pm and 8.30pm! Let me know if you haven’t the link that was below the paywall on yesterday’s Personal Peace post).

Am looking forward to seeing you later!

JOIN THE CHAT

Am also so excited to be much closer in my quest to bring you expert advice from a range of fantabulous professionals who encourage self care as part of their work.

I’ve spoken to neuroscientists, authors, doctors, nurses, therapists, coaches, yoga teachers, a medical herbalist, feng shui professional, fitness professionals and more for the brand new Feel Better Every Day PODCAST

It’s in post-production still: My journalism and therapy background mean the interviews have been beyond a joy but the techy stuff is a steep but rewarding learning curve - if you have tips on podcasting, I welcome them!

And it’ll be launching on what would have been my uncle’s birthday this Winter Solstice - a bit of light into the darkness

Self care ideas from across the board to see you into 2024 and beyond.

with love,
