Connecting Emotions to Physical Sensations in the Body

Day 14: In this session selected from The Women of Wisdom Summit, Sharon Suh guides a trauma-informed mindfulness practice that helps us feel and recognize sensations within the body. By slowly and compassionately bringing awareness to physical sensations, we can begin to notice how emotions show up in the body.

The Wisdom Within Us brings together a curated selection of wisdom and practices from Lion’s Roar workshops and courses. This session is selected from Lion’s Roar’s Women of Wisdom Summit.

Reflections

  • How did you find today’s practice?
  • What did you discover about where emotions live in your body?
