In the first installment of Wound Care, we practice grounding, centering, and facing our wounds. While not all of our wounds are physical, they are all stored in our bodies. And just as an untreated physical wound can fester so can our emotional ones.

It has been more than a year since we’ve been able to share breath without fear.

I can’t help but shudder at how this has affected our collective bodies, particularly during this time when there has been such a profound need to simultaneously down-regulate into shared grief and co-regulate into movement.

Wound Care is a 4-week offering/challenge to take time for yourself and turn your attention towards uncovering and understanding the trauma that has been surfacing in our bodies/communities this past year. The vision is that you will take this 15-minute practice into the rest of your week and your weekly practice into the rest of your month as a way to lean into more awareness around your mental, physical, and emotional health so that you may take this health back into your community.

We know that the world continues to hold many challenges, but can we pause to say how utterly impressed we are with how everyone is taking care of themselves? Yes, that’s you!

This week our clinician Mindy Derseweh shares some practical tips for honing your intuition skills!
