Day 17 Improving Our Emotional Vocabulary

In today’s meditation we are going to begin to increase our somatic vocabulary and body awareness… body awareness can atrophy just like a muscle that is not being used, leaving us feeling disconnected from the world around us and unable to fully engage with ourselves. Adding anything traumatic into our experience can make us even more numb to the body… often with trauma we are completely disconnected from the body… and bringing back this body awareness back on can be difficult. Use this meditation to explore what different emotions feel like in the body.
