Body Love Series: Cultivating Safety in Your Body
Do you know how to create safety and cultivate it in the body?
Society often intellectualizes safety, while neglecting the importance of feeling safe first in the body. Feeling safe in the body involves physical, emotional, and energetic experiences of safety. And you get to define what that means to you
In this episode of the Body Love Series, I share my personal experiences of feeling safe and practicing hypervigilance, particularly in new environments. We get to reflect on the importance of setting boundaries, knowing when and how to communicate boundaries, and prioritizing one's well-being even if it means disappointing others.
No is a complete sentence, being in the right relationship with yourself will allow your inner wisdom to lead the way.
In this episode:
