Podcasts about somatic meditation

Resourcing is a somatic practice where we intentionally connect with a felt sense of safety, support, calm, or joy in our bodies, in order to soothe ourselves and shift our nervous system state. And the more we practice it, the more our nervous system learns that safety is possible. Each time we offer our bodies this experience, the stress and threat responses in our brain and body are able to soften and quiet down, and over time, that capacity for regulation becomes something we can access more and more easily in our everyday lives. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you through a resourcing meditation paired with Havening, a psycho-sensory therapeutic approach that uses gentle touch to calm the nervous system and ease feelings of stress. Together, these two practices create a real sense of relaxation and support from the inside out. If you've been wanting a simple, body-centered way to feel more safe and supported, this episode will show you how to access that, using tools you already carry within you. Perfect for nervous system regulation, stress relief, resourcing your nervous system, and learning how to feel safer and more supported in your body Episode timing: How resourcing helps us heal Somatic Meditation To Resource Your Nervous System Self-Havening to settle and drop in Bringing to mind a resource Read more about how to resource your nervous system here Related: More Somatic Regulation Exercises Learn more about Havening Techniques and the science behind them Havening Techniques is a registered trademark of Ronald Ruden, 15 East 91st Street, New York. www.havening.org Ready to find your center, quiet your mind, and step off the roller coaster of stress and overwhelm?

Emotional stress has a way of building up quietly … until it's not so quiet anymore. We may feel it as overwhelm, as thoughts that won't quiet down, as a bone-deep exhaustion, or as irritability and reactivity that seem to come out of nowhere. Most of us are carrying more emotional stress than we realize, and we come by it honestly. We've been conditioned our whole lives to push our emotions aside rather than actually feel them, and over time, that unprocessed emotion accumulates in the body as stress and tension. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you through a somatic meditation to release emotional stress by actually meeting and processing what you've been carrying emotionally. We'll work on two levels of healing: first, we'll support your nervous system to soften and regulate, and then we'll drop in more deeply to feel and process your emotions. This is the kind of practice that helps emotions actually move through and release, so we can feel lighter, clearer, and more like ourselves again. Perfect for emotional stress relief, nervous system regulation, emotional release, somatic healing, and processing emotions in a gentle, body-centered way.

When You May Want Extra Support – Counselling This meditation is a support, but it is not a replacement for counselling or therapy**. If you are feeling very overwhelmed, isolated, or if your nervous system feels "stuck", you do not have to go through it alone.

So many of us spend most of our lives stuck in our heads, disconnected from our bodies and a bit removed from what we're actually feeling. Embodiment offers us a different way of relating to ourselves. When we begin to develop more embodied awareness, we're able to go deeper in our healing. It gives us a way to regulate and to understand what's really happening within, including what we actually need to heal. And over time, practicing this kind of embodiment begins to change our inner relationship. We start to feel more connected, more supported from within, and less alone in what we're experiencing. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you through a gentle somatic meditation designed to help you come back into your body and deepen your self-connection. We'll begin by grounding into your body and senses with body scan breathing, and then move into somatic emotional processing to help you connect with and gently work through any feelings that are being held within. As you follow along, you may find yourself feeling more connected to yourself, more supported from within, and more in touch with what's actually true for you. This is where a deeper kind of healing begins to unfold. Perfect for building embodied awareness, reconnecting with your body, emotional release, and deepening self-connection Episode timing: 00:00 - What is Embodied Awareness? 06:16 - Embodiment Meditation To Deepen Self-Connection 28:40 - Conclusion and Reflections Read more about embodied awareness and how it deepens healing here Related: More Somatic Emotional Processing Meditations Ready to find your center, quiet your mind, and step off the roller coaster of stress and overwhelm?

You want to relax… but you can't. Does that sound familiar? Maybe you lie down and your body still feels tense. Or you try to slow down, but your mind won't stop thinking. You want to rest, but something in you stays on. This is often due to nervous system dysregulation. With so much constant input and overstimulation in our modern world, our nervous systems can lose the natural rhythm of activation and settling. Instead of coming down when it's time to rest, your body stays “on” leaving you feeling wired, exhausted, and unable to find true calm or relaxation. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I'll gently guide you through a somatic meditation designed to help your body come out of that activated state and begin to relax again. We'll use simple, body-based practices like self-havening, orienting, and body scan breathing to send clear signals of safety to your system. So, if relaxation has felt out of reach, this practice will help your nervous system shift so you can unwind, feel more at ease, and actually rest. Perfect for nervous system regulation, stress relief, and learning how to relax when you can't relax In this episode: Why You Can't Relax (from a nervous system perspective) Somatic Meditation to Settle Your Nervous System Self-Havening and Orienting Body Scan Breathing Read more about the somatic approach to deep relaxation Related: More Somatic Regulation Exercises Learn more about Havening Techniques and the science behind them Havening Techniques is a registered trademark of Ronald Ruden, 15 East 91st Street, New York. www.havening.org Ready to find your center, quiet your mind, and step off the roller coaster of stress and overwhelm?

It's okay not to be okay. But in a world that constantly asks us to keep going, stay positive, and hold everything together, many of us have learned to push away what we're actually feeling. When emotions like sadness, anxiety, confusion, or overwhelm arise, we often try to push them down, analyze them away, or simply pretend we're fine. Over time, that pattern leaves us tired, tense, and carrying a heavy load of emotional stress in our bodies. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, you'll be guided through a gentle somatic meditation designed to help you acknowledge and care for what you're truly feeling. We'll begin with slow, regulating breathing to calm the nervous system and help you settle into your body. From there, you'll gently turn toward what's present inside you, allowing your feelings to be noticed with compassion and care. As you make space for what you're truly feeling instead of pushing it away, many people notice a sense of relief in the body, a quiet calm emerging within, and the compassion that comes from allowing every part of their experience to be here. Perfect for emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and gently caring for yourself when you're not feeling okay.

So many of us have tried to “fix” our inner dialogue by replacing thoughts or forcing ourselves to be more positive. But when the inner voice is critical or relentless, it's usually because something inside is hurting or under strain. The words are just the part we hear … but the tone and feeling state come from much deeper places within. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you through a gentle somatic meditation that helps you turn toward the feelings underneath your inner dialogue. You'll be invited to bring compassionate awareness to the sensations and emotions in your body, and to begin meeting the parts within that need support and understanding. When these deeper feelings are seen and cared for, the inner world often begins to soften on its own. Your inner voice changes when your inner world is cared for. If you're ready for your inner dialogue to feel a little less harsh and a little more supportive, come listen now.

What if the reason your healing feels stuck isn't that you're doing it wrong… but that your system doesn't yet feel safe enough to really feel? So many of us don't just have emotions, we have feelings about our feelings. We might be afraid of our shame, ashamed of our fear, or judge ourselves as weak for feeling anxious or angry. Over time, this ties our inner world in knots and creates tension, self-judgment, and a quiet fear of our own emotions. Instead of our emotions moving through us and releasing, they get held at a distance. We don't feel them deeply enough to truly heal. In this somatic meditation, you'll gently cultivate cues of safety in your body and practice meeting your feelings in a grounded, supported way, so your system can learn emotional safety and emotions can finally move, complete, and resolve. Press play now and begin meeting your feelings with more safety and support.

It's a really common (albeit frustrating!) thing to find yourself stuck in the same old patterns, even when you're deeply aware of them and genuinely want to respond differently. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, we explore why these patterns exist in the first place and why they're not signs that something is wrong with you. From a somatic healing perspective, many of our most stubborn old patterns formed as self-protective responses long ago and are held in the body and subconscious, which is why insight alone doesn't always lead to change. This compassionate, body-based meditation is designed to help you slow down and meet a part of you that's been carrying an old pattern. You'll be guided to connect with the deeper roots of this pattern that have been held beneath the surface, creating the conditions for those responses to begin to loosen. If you've been cycling through the same emotional reactions and wondering why they haven't shifted yet, this practice offers a grounded, supportive way to start releasing old patterns from the inside out. Set aside a few quiet minutes, get comfortable, and join me for this somatic meditation to understand and begin to release old patterns.

If you've ever tried to “change your mindset,” only to find yourself stuck in the same patterns over and over again, this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations will help you understand why. The truth is, your thoughts aren't the problem … they're symptoms of deeper layers living in your body and nervous system. In this episode, you'll learn why mindset work alone often falls flat, and how nervous system state, unprocessed emotions, and old conditioning shape your thoughts and mindset long before you're aware of them. When you begin to work with the body instead of fighting with your thoughts, everything starts to make more sense. I'll also guide you through a somatic meditation that helps you explore the roots of a mindset issue you've been struggling with. Through nervous system regulation and a gentle somatic emotional healing process, you'll be guided to connect with the deeper emotional and subconscious material underneath the pattern. If you're tired of trying to think your way into feeling better, this practice offers a compassionate, body-centered path toward real change.

Stress settles into the body in ways we feel but rarely know how to release. When you're overwhelmed or stretched thin, you deserve tools that bring real relief. This guided somatic meditation offers a gentle, body-centered way to de-stress your nervous system and feel more relaxed again. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, we use self-havening, a touch-based somatic practice shown to calm the parts of the brain that activate during stress. This gentle touch supports your body in shifting out of high alert, which can help you regulate your nervous system and unwind the stress you've been carrying. This practice can help your system soften, settle your thoughts, and reconnect you with your inner world in a kinder way. It's especially helpful when you're overwhelmed, overstimulated, or longing for a moment to feel safe inside your own body again. Take this time to slow down, listen inward, and let your system unwind at a pace that feels right for you.

So many of us are living in bodies that have forgotten what safety feels like. Even when life is calm, our nervous systems can stay in protection mode, keeping us stressed, tense, and constantly scanning for what might go wrong. This somatic meditation is an invitation to change that. Using gentle Havening touch, orienting, and other soothing regulation techniques, you'll learn how to create cues of safety that speak directly to your nervous system. These small, body-based signals tell your system, “It's safe enough to soften now.” Over time, they help your body recalibrate from protection into connection, so safety becomes something you can actually feel. Whether your body feels anxious, disconnected, or just constantly “on,” this practice will help you re-establish a sense of grounded ease and inner steadiness. Take this time to slow down, reconnect, and recalibrate your nervous system so you feel safe in your body again. Perfect for: nervous system regulation, feeling safe in your body, grounding, trauma healing and emotional balance.

Looking for a gentle way to regulate your emotions? In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, Karena guides you through a Somatic Meditation for Emotional Regulation using a powerful process called Regenerating Images in Memory® (RIM). True emotional regulation isn't about being calm all the time or forcing difficult feelings to go away. It's about having a way to return to safety and clarity inside, even in the middle of strong emotions. And the key to doing this is deep listening: turning toward your emotions with presence instead of pushing them aside. Instead of pushing your emotions down or trying to control them, this meditation will help you practice deep listening and inner attunement - so your nervous system can settle and you can return to a place of safety and clarity within. This practice is a simple yet profound way to care for your inner world and experience how emotional regulation naturally unfolds when you meet yourself with compassion and inner listening.

We all struggle to love ourselves sometimes. Even when we truly desire to be kind to ourselves, to feel our worth, and to see ourselves through loving eyes … something inside of us resists, or pulls away, or shuts down. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, we'll explore the deeper reasons why we experience blocks to self-love. You'll be gently guided through a Somatic Meditation to Heal Your Blocks to Self-Love using Regenerating Images in Memory (RIM®). This practice invites you to connect with the parts of you that may be holding fear, pain, or resistance - and to meet them with warmth, curiosity, and compassionate attention. Together, we'll create space for those parts to soften, so that self-love can begin to feel safer and more possible. If self-love has felt distant or unreachable, this episode offers a quiet turning point. A space to breathe, to reconnect with yourself, and to take one soft step closer to the love that's already waiting within you.

Have you been feeling disconnected from yourself - like you're going through the motions but not really here? Like somewhere along the way, you lost touch with your own presence? In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, you'll be guided through a calming somatic meditation to help you reconnect with yourself from the inside out. Through breath, gentle touch, and Havening Techniques®, you'll be invited back into your body with care and curiosity. You'll also be guided through soothing “iffirmations” to support your compassionate return to yourself. If you're longing to feel more grounded, more like yourself, and more at peace in your body, this meditation is for you. Take a breath. Let go of the doing. Come home to you.

What if your anxiety isn't a problem to fix… but a message to listen to?

You don't need to think harder. You need to listen deeper.

In a world that teaches us to minimize our emotions and push past our needs, so many of us have become disconnected from our deeper selves and our true feelings. But here's the thing: being honest with ourselves about what we're actually feeling is where authentic healing begins. Emotional honesty is also deeply regulating. When we stop pushing away what's true and start gently acknowledging it, the nervous system begins to settle. The fog clears. And we come back into relationship with ourselves. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you through a soothing somatic meditation using Regenerating Images in Memory®—a practice designed to help you reconnect with your emotions, uncover hidden needs, and bring loving attention to the parts of you that have been quietly waiting to be seen. This is not about getting stuck in your feelings—it's about letting them move through you, so you can feel more clear, grounded, and whole.

Be here now.

We live in a world that encourages hustle, runs on urgency, and glorifies toxic productivity. No wonder so many of us struggle with time anxiety. But time anxiety isn't just stress about your schedule—it's a felt sense of unease. It's a nervous system stuck in urgency, and a body that never learned it's safe to slow down. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you through a gentle Self-Havening meditation designed to help you release the pressure and begin to rewire the patterns that keep you stuck in urgency, overwhelm, and panic. This isn't about time management—it's about nervous system healing. If you've been feeling behind, overwhelmed, or unable to stop rushing, this practice is for you. Let this be your invitation to feel safe slowing down—and to build a more spacious, supportive relationship with time.

Your body has been speaking to you all along—through tension, fatigue, emotions, and the quiet sensations that often go unnoticed. But in a world that teaches us to override discomfort and push through pain, we've forgotten how to truly listen. In this guided Somatic Meditation To Listen To Your Body, you'll be invited to slow down, drop beneath your thoughts, and gently tune in to the wisdom your body holds. Using Regenerating Images in Memory® (RIM)—a powerful somatic healing approach—you'll safely explore the deeper messages within your body's sensations, uncover what has been held beneath the surface, and reconnect with the inner guidance that has always been there. If you've ever felt disconnected from your body, struggled with persistent stress or tension, or simply longed for a deeper sense of ease within yourself—this meditation is for you. Your body already knows the way forward. Are you ready to listen?

So often, we go through the motions of self-care, only to find ourselves still feeling depleted, unfulfilled, or unsupported. That's because deep self-care isn't as much about what you DO as it is about how deeply you LISTEN to your true needs and feelings. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I invite you into a practice of deep self-care - not as a task to complete, but as a way of being with yourself. In this somatic meditation, we'll gently explore the question: What do I need to feel supported? Not in theory, but in the lived reality of your body, right here and right now. With gentle guidance, you'll be invited to drop out of your thinking mind and into the wisdom of your body—to sense, feel, and truly receive the support you need in this moment. Because true support doesn't come from a checklist, it comes from attunement. And when we learn the art of inner support - listening deeply and responding with attuned care - we give ourselves the gift of being truly met. Press play and let's begin.

“Name it to tame it” isn't just a phrase; it's neuroscience. Research shows that when we put our feelings into words, we activate the part of the brain that helps us feel calmer, clearer, and more in control. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you through a gentle, somatic exercise to help you name what you're feeling in a way that brings emotional clarity and relief. And we won't just be using words—we'll also be using Self-Havening, a simple but powerful technique that uses soothing touch to support your nervous system and deepen your healing. By combining mindful awareness with gentle touch, we create the perfect conditions for emotional release, self-regulation, and deep self-compassion. If you've been feeling tangled up in emotions or just want a compassionate way to reconnect with yourself, this episode is for you. Let this Name It To Tame It practice be a gift to yourself—a moment to name what's here, to soften into it, and to discover what happens when you meet yourself with curiosity and care.

In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, Karena guides you through a gentle somatic meditation designed to help you drop out of your head and into your body. Using the soothing touch of Self-Havening and a grounding body scan, this practice will support your nervous system, quiet your noisy thoughts, and bring you back home to yourself.

Are you feeling disconnected and dissatisfied? Or burned out from constantly trying to conform and perform? The sad truth is that most of us spend most of our time disconnected from our true selves. Today's somatic meditation to connect with your true self is all about getting a deep sense of your true essence. This essence is often drowned out by the distractions around us and the expectations placed on us, but in today's somatic meditation, you'll be guided to pause, breathe, and turn your attention toward this true essence in a powerful and nourishing way. Reconnecting with your true self in this way is a radical act of self-love. It's a beautiful, transformative process that brings you home to yourself. And at this time of year, when people are making all sorts of resolutions, goals, and intentions, it's more important than ever to check in with our true selves to make sure we're guiding our lives toward paths that will feed our hearts and souls (instead of just aiming for the same empty accomplishments society has convinced us are important). Join me on this beautiful journey inward and reconnect with your true self!

In a world that constantly urges us to do more, achieve more, and be more, the idea of slowing down and allowing ourselves to pause can seem almost radical. Yet, that's exactly what the winter solstice invites us to do. This longest night encourages us to find quiet within and honor the cycles of rest that our bodies and minds so deeply need. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, join Karena as she gently guides you inward with a peaceful somatic meditation for the winter solstice. “A Peaceful Pause” uses gentle, heart-centered breathwork to deeply soothe your body, heart, and mind. This calming breathwork supports your nervous system, bringing it into a more regulated state, and tones your vagus nerve, enhancing your overall well-being and relaxation. Take this time to nurture yourself with stillness and compassion. Remember, healing is not a race, it's a journey of gentle, compassionate unfolding. And, sometimes, the most profound progress happens when we simply allow ourselves to pause and rest.

I think the world needs those of us strong enough to act from compassion and authenticity now more than ever. That's why I've created a somatic meditation for inner strength, designed to help you connect with the depth and breadth of the true strength you carry within. This somatic meditation is a soothing journey inward that will guide you to uncover the beauty and brilliance of your authentic self and help you contact the truest essence of you that can guide you through the ebbs and flows of life. No matter how much or how little you already feel aware of your inner strength, this somatic meditation can help you understand it more deeply and embody it more fully. Iffirmations for Inner Strength: What if I have more strength, courage, and fortitude within me than I realize? What if I'm more than just my fears and anxieties? What if within me I have what it takes to face my challenges? What would it be like to stand strong in my own energy? What if I'm enough exactly as I am? What would it be like to consistently make choices that align with my deepest values, desires, and authenticity? What if my true inner strength is rooted in my authenticity and compassion? What if my true inner strength doesn't have to look like anyone else's? What if I can let go of the perceptions and habits that disempower me? What would it be like to embrace my bravest self? What would it be like to reclaim my power and strength from anywhere I left it in the past? What if it's safe for me to embody my full strength now even if I had to stay small in the past? What if it's safe for me to take up space and share my voice with the world? Who could I become if I allowed my inner strength to flow through me and fill me?

First of all, if you're freaking out right now, I want to extend my heartfelt compassion to you. Life can be incredibly challenging, and it's okay to feel harrowed or anxious. (In fact, it's okay to feel ANYTHING that you may be feeling right now.) Unfortunately, when life gets this overwhelming, we often spiral in a vicious cycle of dysregulation, stress, and catastrophic thoughts. This Somatic Meditation For When You're Freaking Out is all about supporting your nervous system to come out of its dysregulated state while also helping you break the cycle of your racing thoughts. Join me for this gentle and supportive somatic meditation. Let it guide you out of the spiral and help you get your feet beneath you again.

Self-love is a term often misunderstood and oversimplified. We know it's an ideal we want to work toward, but most of the advice we hear about how to actually achieve it totally misses the mark. In this Somatic Self-Love Practice, you'll explore how deep listening and inner attunement can help you cultivate a relationship with yourself where you create a deep sense of connection, acceptance, and support (the true foundations of self-love). You'll be guided through a regulating and compassionate somatic meditation for self-love and support that will help you attune to your inner self more deeply and bring loving support to the parts of you that need it. This somatic self-love practice is truly a soothing and regulating revolution in self-love.

In today's digital age, social media has woven itself into the fabric of our daily lives, offering both connection and distraction at our fingertips. And while social media has some beautiful and supportive aspects, the algorithms behind it are designed to be highly addictive and manipulative. We scroll, hoping to find something uplifting, educational, or distracting, but we soon find ourselves lost in the unfulfilling world of doomscrolling. The endless scroll for dopamine hits can lead to significant costs: nervous system dysregulation, emotional exhaustion, and a disrupted sense of self. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, you'll be guided to connect with your body in a way that gently regulates your nervous system. Then we'll use a body-centered emotional processing technique (called Regenerating Images in Memory®) to examine and process the deeper feelings, needs and desires that are driving your doomscrolling in the first place. This meditation can be incredibly regulating and clarifying, empowering you to create a more mindful relationship with technology—one that supports your well-being rather than depleting it.
