WEEK 3

33 MIN - Turning Toward Movement Practice

PROPS NEEDED: None

Becoming more self-aware, awake, and attentive is a necessary foundation to personal growth but what we do with what we discover about ourselves from there? This practice is an invitation to explore two concepts from Peter Levine's Somatic Experiencing called "pendulation" and "titration". Welcoming and opening to our feelings can be overwhelming. This practice offers a safe way to begin to process difficult emotions, sensations, thoughts, stress, and/or trauma that are held inside the body. Experience the power of expanding and contracting as a way to build tolerance and capacity to feel fully without the tendency to turn away from yourself.
