Authenticism generally doesn't come about by willing yourself into a preconceived idea of who you should be or how you want others to see you, but an intimate awareness of how truth permeates through all of our being. Movement precedes language. Our body is the vessel of the stories we hold. And the walk comes before the talk. Being real is a direct experience, not simply a label.
If you're feeling neck and shoulder tightness or pain, here is a video on how to give yourself a liver flush to release the tension. Best to try this in a seated position.
What does being Connected to the Body mean?
Being connected with the body means that our actions are not driven purely by intellectual cognition and our reality is informed by more than what the forebrain tells us. It is our ability to hold the dichotomy of both bottom-up and top-down perspectives... the polarities of what's within and what's outside of ourselves. Coming into this relational field helps us recognise connection, cultivate empathy. and embody the wisdom of impermanence. We learn to let go of belief systems that shackle us, and open our curiosity to phenomenons that may fall outside our comfort zone. Learn more about connection to the body.
