Are you ready to embark on a journey of self-awareness and well-being? Look no further than this "Bodyfulness" practice inspired by Dr. Linnea Passaler and her groundbreaking book "Heal Your Nervous System".
What is Bodyfulness? Bodyfulness is a powerful concept that invites us to explore our physical and sensory experiences. Unlike traditional mindfulness, which often focuses solely on the mind, bodyfulness celebrates the interconnectedness of body and mind (our soma).
Why choose Bodyfulness? Dr. Linnea Passer sheds light on the magic of bodyfulness. By emphasizing our sensory nature, we can truly inhabit the present moment. Imagine feeling the ground beneath your feet, the rhythm of your breath, and the subtle whispers of your body—all while navigating the complexities of daily life.
How to practice Bodyfulness Check-In: Adaptability is key! Whether you're sitting at your desk, standing in line, strolling through the park, or even lounging on your couch, you can seamlessly integrate this practice. Here's how:
1. Pause: Take a moment to pause, wherever you are.
2. Scan: Tune in to your body. Notice any sensations, tensions, or areas of ease.
3. Breathe: Take a few conscious breaths. Feel the rise and fall of your chest.
4. Connect: Acknowledge your body and mind as one harmonious unit.
5. Proceed: Carry this awareness with you as you continue your day.
Why wait? Start your journey with this 12-minute practice. Bodyfulness is a practice for life, not just for meditation cushions. So, whether you're commuting, grocery shopping, or chasing dreams, remember to check in with your body.
