Embodiment
As human beings, with a human form, we seem to be consciously or unconsciously seeking to integrate our sense of being a body, mind and spirit (or soul, or consciousness) in living life. It seems that for different people, and at different times, this integrating can move between all sorts of feelings and expressions; a war-like struggle, a flowing dance, or a sense of imprisonment.
These one to one sessions focusing upon your embodiment offer you the time, space and support to explore your experience and sense of what it means to be an integrating body-mind-spirit. You are invited to explore your felt senses, your relationship with your body and to engage with the processes your body wishes to complete in embodying and living more authentically in the present day.
These sessions offer you the chance to:
• connect with a deeper sense of being in your body
• allow yourself to experience a sense of your body for the first time
• explore your body awareness through meditation and movement
• relax your body where you can and giving yourself the chance to stop
• explore the unique history of your body-mind-spirit in a gentle, experiential, supported way
• learn how to calm and quieten
• support other physical work you may be doing at the current time
• gently freeing blocked energy and tensions held in your body
• heal difficult experiences and memories
• explore and healing painful aspects of your relationship with your body
• enjoy and appreciating your sense of being embodied
• celebrate what you have survived
• listen out for the wisdom of your body

“This is the most important teaching: not two and not one. Our body and mind are not two and not one. If you think your body and mind are two, that is wrong; if you think that they are one, that is also wrong. Our body and mind are both two and one” Shunryu Suzuki
These sessions can include body awareness exercises, breathing work, meditation, visualisation and reflection, and focusing on felt senses. My intention is to follow your process, given that for many of us, trusting our experience and our embodied senses can be part of the struggle of integration.
Therapeutic work takes place with you fully clothed. The use of touch is carefully negotiated, sensitively managed and held in the context of a respectful and ethical therapeutic relationship. Change and healing can take place without the use of touch. This work is suitable for a wide variety of clients, for therapeutic support, personal development, relaxation and ‘self care’ time for therapists and body workers.
