Slow Integration Coaching

One thing this time is reminding me of is that collectively, we are finally being pushed out of our comfort zone, into building the solutions we’ve long longed for, been dreaming of, and been doing our healing and personal development work for. I want to share about an upcoming?virtual 6-week?group if you want to join us! ? Upcoming Spring 6-week Virtual Somatic Group-- Starts March 26th, 2025: There's no time like this precious now to slow down, and to practice in-community ways of centering ourselves and checking in on our capacity. Hope you'll consider joining the?upcoming spring 6-week virtual somatic group?and inviting a friend to join you. We will be meeting Wednesdays, 5:30pm MST, (3/26, 4/1, 4/9, 4/16, 4/23, 4/30) to practice embodiment skills (resourcing oneself, self-awareness, accountability with wellbeing goals, normalizing challenges people are facing).

In this video I explore the question: “What has been helping me through these days? A few soft reminders of hope?” I discuss these gifts and reminders: ?? What is this moment asking of me? What will it help me move into more deeply? ?? How are we taking care of ourselves through fear? We tolerate alot and this moment is pushing us into the necessity to re-orient towards what we have control over in our own peace, wellbeing, boundaries, etc. ?? We’ve been through these times before and we can lean on the strength of people and community who have been here too. Lets gather, organize, feel, cry, grieve, and take it a day at a time. What has been helping you right now? Sending peace and love. Reach out if you want to get support around this through 1:1 coaching or the spring somatic group. ?? Learn somatic theory and develop embodied practices in community ?? Deepen connection to your sense of wholeness and balance ?

This is who we are (radiance, beauty, light, power, love, healing) for ourselves, and each other — even when we don’t believe it and when fear is threatening our existence.?Sending you such care.

Hi all. If you feel called, you are invited to join in a few hours for a small gathering.?This is a pop-up virtual gathering to pray, chant and hold space together for justice and love around the inauguration and Martin Luther King Jr. Day.?We'll go with the flow around what we want/need when we get together. Register in advance for this meeting: https://lnkd.in/gdeaPERW —— Either way, may you feel your heart today, breathe into your exhale a little longer, and find moments of comfort.

May we hold the complexities, the flaws, the incongruences. May we also be present to the ways our longings may already be here, unfolding in our being, relations, and our communities, as we think, plot, and imagine them taking root. Where can we see, sense, feel, touch, and perceive that which we are dreaming of? Want to pause and center yourself?

Turning on the away messages. Remember, it's up to us to slow down and invite in moments of ease and joy in the face of everything else. May we settle into being present and grateful for who we are and how we have contributed to our communities and workplaces. Here are my end of year reflections centering the beautiful awe-moments and learnings.?Thank you to all my beautiful friends, family, colleagues, clients, teachers, and ancestors. Much love!

In this video, I talk about our capacity to feel more. To notice what our go-to feelings and emotions are,? and to consider, what do we want to increase our range around? We may have various reasons for why some emotions are less accessible to us, and that’s okay. If we want to cultivate it, we can do so drop-by-drop, acknowledging our hesitations, and asking ourselves, what can it offer? Adrienne Maree Brown wrote, “we don't practice to feel good, we practice to feel more” in her book Emergent Strategies. In this clip, I also talk about feeling more playfulness, silliness, and joy. Three tips: 1. Notice, when/where/with whom do we feel that feeling more easily? 2. Can we give ourselves some of those moments? 3. Talk about when you’ve accessed this feeling to others or yourself. When we relive and remember that experience, we are bringing our attention to it, and this is something we can do in other moments too. ??

In this time of buying stuff and family and “time off,” it is (inhale, exhale..) "okay" if resting and unplugging doesn’t come naturally. It is okay if you feel squirmy with doing “nothing” (or less) even if you want to be able to.?May we hold lightly however we end up spending this time. In this video I talk about the themes of wanting to feel productive. I also talk about having somatic/ body-based practices that support us in what we care about, as well as, normalizing the ways we do or don’t do those things we know might be helpful to us, like resting. What if we practice adding 5% less judgment to whatever we choose to do or not do??What if we practice noticing our impulses? What if we practice noticing what gets in the way?? ? Maybe you walk for a few minutes and stare at the trees. Or turn our computer off for a few hours. Perhaps you watch a video that makes you laugh. Or you journal for five minutes. Let those small acts be significant. The more we can bring attention to those small acts, they can grow. Sometimes we can’t make those big changes we long for, then we beat ourselves up. Over and over. Whatever it is we haven’t been willing to shift/stop/start, we’re gaining something from it. So let's stop all this guilt, shaming, and blaming. Start small, friend. Go where it's easy. Sending care y'all. #somaticcoaching #holistichealing #selfdiscovery #transformation #mindbodyspirit #slowintegration #liberationjourney #healing #liberatorycoaching #boundaries #diversityequityinclusion #boundaries #bipoc #lgbtqia #nonprofit #highered #FreePalestine #resilience?

Whatever you are feeling, others are feeling too. We are impacted by each other's energy and nervous systems. May we remember that change is constant and that we may need to create new ways to care and regulate ourselves in these moments. May we remember our brilliance, dignity, and wholeness even when we feel a shattering. May we remember to exhale and to turn towards something which grounds us. May we remember our higher power. With love.?Tag a colleague or friend to remind them too. <3 #somaticcoaching?#holistichealing #selfdiscovery?#transformation #mindbodyspirit?#slowintegration #liberationjourney?#healing #liberatorycoaching?#boundaries #diversityequityinclusion?#boundaries?#bipoc #lgbtqia?#nonprofit?#highered?#FreePalestine #resilience
