And herein lies the conundrum. In the same way, when we say ‘yes’ to someone else, we are saying ‘no’ to ourselves. And when we say ‘yes’ to ourselves, we are saying ‘no’ to someone or something else.

One day, I started exploring my own needs, wants, likes and dislikes. Things I always wanted to do.

Suddenly, I had hobbies. I had things to do in my spare time. I looked forward to having spare time.

And my life seemed so much richer.

The only way to change the culture is to do something differently. The only way to change our brains is to do things differently. If we want to change this – we need to do it ourselves first.

And if we want to change our culture, we need to start doing this differently too.

The problem with this is – there is a never-ending list of things.

What would it be like, if we gave pleasure more time?

Focusing on what is enjoyable, feels good, and brings us a sense of peace?

The goal of healing is to become more integrated. More whole.

As an individual.
AND
As a community.

To be less separate.
Less divided.
More capacity to communicate, negotiate, understand.
Ourselves.
AND
Each other.

For optimal function and homeostasis-we need the ebb and flow between action and rest.
The shifting between states…

The trick is to be able to attune to your body’s needs. Listen. Then respond.

To me - embodiment is about directing attention to YOUR body, learning to become more aware of YOUR internal and external senses.

Being able to have access to this allows us to shift our experience of ourselves and the world.

Life is better with adventures.

If you could go on any adventure

Where would you go?

What would you do?

What does this teach you about your fire? Your spirit? Your vitality?

Dieting or food restriction is one of the biggest risk factors for developing and eating disorder.

Many people struggle to have a healthy relationship with their bodies, with food, or with exercise.

And it requires a mind-body approach.

[Ashlea Broomfield @AshBroomie]

When we rely on others to tell us;

What is right
Or
What is wrong…

We let go of self inquiry

Connecting with ourselves
Develops understanding
Agency
And
Self determination

When seeking out assistance, ask yourself:

Does this feel like inquiry?
Or imposition?

[Ashlea Broomfield @AshBroomie]

All Bodies are worthy

No matter what shape
No matter what size
No matter what colour
No matter what ability
No matter what beliefs they hold.

All bodies are welcome here.

[Ashlea Broomfield @AshBroomie]

The answer here is learning compassionate boundaries. Empathetic boundaries. Negotiation of needs.

It is simple to say. And hard to do.
