For just a moment, I invite you to pause…
to soften your breath and turn inward.
Can you remember the last time…
You laughed so hard you felt that ache in your side?
You saw something so beautiful it sent shivers down your spine?
You felt truly safe, seen, and connected to another?
Curiosity awakened something within you, drawing you toward a new hobby or passion?
You busted out into a silly dance free from self-consciousness?
Perhaps one or more of these moments comes easily to mind. Or perhaps, like many, remembering feels distant—because it has been a LONG while. Our modern world rarely invites slowness. We are constantly inundated with information, demands, and responsibilities. Over time, this pace—gradually and sometimes forcefully—draws us away from our bodies, our first home.
This comes at a cost. The body is a source of innate intelligence, quietly holding our stories, our needs, our rhythms, and our truths.
Despite unprecedented access to technology, connection, and convenience, rates of anxiety, depression, chronic illness, loneliness, and addiction continue to rise. And so you may begin to ask yourself: what is missing, what has been lost, or quietly forgotten?
The answer may not be as far away as we’ve been looking. Maybe it is time to find your way back home—to your body, your inner landscape, your embodied wisdom.
To be embodied is to live fully within your own presence. It is not observing life from a distance but stepping into it. Feeling it. Participating fully. It is a return to wholeness.
For those who have experienced trauma, embodiment can feel especially daunting. Trauma teaches the nervous system that it is not safe to remain present in the body. Dissociation is not a weakness—it is wisdom, a sacred protection that allowed survival. Yet often, after the danger has passed, the body does not know how to return. Coming back home can feel intertwined with fear, overwhelm, or helplessness.
If something in these words stirs within you, consider it an invitation. A whisper of curiosity. A remembering. You are far more than your trauma, your experiences, your family history, or any diagnosis. The fact that you are here, reading this, speaks to a deep courage and a part of you that longs for more.
I can’t promise that I have all the answers.
But I trust, wholeheartedly, that your body does.
And I would be deeply honored to support you on your journey back home.
