Psyche-Somatic Affirmation Activations

… breathe it… embody it… psyche it… transform it…

  • Are there times when you recognize something has triggered you, but don’t want the reactive inner feelings to drive your present moment?

  • You have options! You can use your breath and somatic awareness to transform how you are feeling in the moment and change your experience to align with your inner desires and innate intelligence.

  • This doesn’t require anyone else to change, because this is for you. It is a form of self love and inner strength activated through your body and mind!

  • You can create an affirmation that moves through your body and awakens your psyche from your innermost intelligence. Yes!

We all have snapshots, embedded memories, that rise like pop up videos in our minds' eye and mental chatter. These ephemeral snapshots come and go, but sometimes, whether it be intentional or not, they end up on repeat like a broken record taking us out of the present moment and back to the feelings, emotions, and reactions of the snapshot from our past. If the snapshots are happy, we may embrace the bliss and pleasure we once felt long-ago emanating through our body and mind. If the snapshot was unpleasant, however, we may unwittingly suppress the emotions and feelings which could lead to anxiety, depression, or irritation that often comes out sideways toward others or solidifies as pain in our own body.

Alternately, we may enter a mental reaction that can originate an accompanying slogan for the snapshot moment. Our ego (emotions + going) galvanizes the reaction by placing blame, inflaming anger, and oftentimes ending in a collapse of shame for reliving the snapshot situation and old pattern of thinking. In some ways, this is part of the human experience. On the other hand, we can utilize our full psyche and somatic intelligence to rewire how these snapshots express themselves in our nervous system. We can use our breath, our awareness, and our psyche-somatic abilities to shift the impact of our snapshot patterns to align with what we know now rather than what we felt in the past. One of the practices I have been working with that has proven to be effective in these moments are Psyche-Somatic Affirmation Activations (PSAA).

One of my amazing clients created a PSAA she named Ease Beam Activation. She created it during a time when many family members were visiting and the tension of old family dynamics tended to be overwhelming. Working together, we clarified what she wanted in those moments were more feelings of ease to unfold opportunities for creating new memories free of past dynamics. We started by isolating how it felt in the body to be in one of the moments that caused distress. Then, she invited a full body expression of how it felt. Afterward, there was a natural slowing of breath and feeling of ease within her body and mind. I asked her what she would do if she could activate this feeling through a dynamic movement.

At first, she looked at me like you’re kidding, right? Then, after seeing I was totally serious, she gave it a try and created her Ease Beam Activation. We did it together and soaked in the feelings of ease that manifested in body, mind, breath, and being. Since the psyche-somatic movement is embedded in her body, she doesn’t have to physicalize her Ease Beam Activation to initiate its affirming influence. It is a tool for her to use whenever she needs it. She can sense it moving through her and breathe it into her body and mind in the moment. She drew these sketches to illustrate her Ease Beam Activation and gave me permission to share them with you. I hope you enjoy the dimensions within.

RISE & SHINE : BODY FOCUS UNITY classes

beginning in February 2021.

Through intentional focus within our body and breath, we can cultivate unity in how we feel, what we want, and what we dream. February is my birthday month. I was born on the 19th within the cusp of air meeting water. Classes this month will weave these elements with the poetic prose of nayyirah waheed and the energetic modalities of yoga, Bioenergetics, breathing practices, and intentional movement.

Each class will incorporate grounding through your feet and nervous system, tapping into your subtle body with breath, specific gestures, and cellular consciousness, and energizing your vitality with improvised movement that stokes your creative agency.

Only experience necessary is human being. So, you got it. Yes!

February classes will be donation based for this weekly maiden voyage into on-line classes during my birthday month.

Classes will take place on February 3rd, 10th, and 24th from 6:30 - 7:30am PST.
