Somatic Personal Practice
Connect With Protective Support
Gently touch your face, arm, hand, head or heart.
Say to yourself: “I wish for you to be safe, protected and taken care of. I will always love you.”
Hear the words and feel the touch inside yourself as if they were coming from a beloved elder.
Notice the effect on your breath, body, energies and emotions.
I have tried this practice several times in the past 24 hours.
Sometimes it lands deeply, and I feel warmth, I feel loved and hopeful.
Sometimes I hear the words and don’t feel any emotion. Yet even in those instances, I notice that my breath still deepens and my energy softens upon hearing these words.
