036 Embodiment: What it means to live an Emobied Life with Heather Last Curious Women

    • Alternative Health

We are not broken. We do not require any repair. Simply reclaiming the lost parts of ourselves and honoring the knowledge that resides there is all that is needed. On the other hand, bringing the mind, body, and soul into harmony with the natural rhythms and cycles that exist both within and outside of us to achieve equilibrium in our day-to-day lives and reacquaint ourselves with our core essence. Hence, our guest for today approaches her work with clients and students through a trauma-informed approach, believing that we already possess the capacity to heal ourselves.

Heather Last is a Movement Instructor and Somatic Embodiment Coach. She has been a lover of nature, movement, art, and poetry for her entire life, and she has always felt closest to Spirit in the depths of her body. This interest led her in her teenage years to Yoga and Ayurveda, as well as to a degree in Exercise Science. Heather has worked in the health and wellness industry for over two decades and holds numerous fitness training and certifications. Her offerings as a teacher and a coach include marrying the expression of the body with the expression of the soul, discovering inner and outer alignment, opening and strengthening the body with intelligent sequencing and unique movement patterns, guiding individuals into the depths of their bodies and reflecting the wisdom that resides within.

[09:30] Somatic Embodiment – Heather defines somatic embodiment in detail. In addition, she explains how we are conditioned against our instincts.

[26:18] Presence and Connection - What does it mean to orient to the space? What is our next step if we cannot connect with what our bodies are feeling?

[37:14] Differences - We discuss the reasons why living from one's own body is such a challenge and the changes that occur within individuals due to engaging in somatic embodiment practices.

[49:52] Ask Yourself - Can you tune in to your body and ask, "How do I wish to express myself today?"
