How do somatic practices restore emotional balance? Somatic-based techniques empower you to gently regulate your own nervous system, allowing difficult emotions to safely move through your system rather than getting trapped. By feeling into your body and sensing its subtle responses, you shift your awareness from racing thoughts to the stability and groundedness of presence. Mindfully nurturing your body sends a clear signal of safety to your nervous system and creates an environment where emotional peace and calm naturally thrive.
Techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, gentle yoga, and other
mindful forms of exercise guide us back to our bodies, promoting an
internal dialogue that encourages the parasympathetic system to take the
driver's seat. Your nervous system knows the way home to ease,
stability, and balance. Embrace gentle, somatic-based practices as a
profound, loving journey back to yourself, again and again. (Daily OM)
