Embodied Awareness: Beyond the Body and Mind - Part 2
26m
Your body and mind are in constant relationship with each other. There are moments in relating where your mind unconsciously takes control of your body, and also where your body reacts without conscious thought. The meeting place of body and mind is full of potential and an invitation for more refined awareness. When you are able to bring more awareness to relational moments, you can begin to mend the disconnect between body and mind which welcomes integration, balance and harmony.
In this 26 minute compilation from The Art of Sacred Intimacy, London, July 2023, John provides insight into the body mind connection, our habitual responses and how you can bring more awareness and spaciousness to each moment.
Topics discussed include:
• Working with shame as a prevailing habit/fear during practice
• Uncontrollable giggles during practice - our habitual release valves for our emotions
• Dissociation during breathwork - how to stay connected and grounded
If you are looking to build awareness around your body-mind connection and bring more depth into your relationships, this compilation will provide you with some insight and guidance.
