Practice: Bringing Awareness to Freedom and Tension

Observing opposites and cultivating interoceptive awareness

Welcome to the Moving into Spirit Podcast - Episode #20

I’m so happy you’re here for another exploration into interoceptive awareness and what it means to feel either free or tense, freedom or tension, abundance or lack, expansion or restriction.

Since we are at the beginning of a New Year, it seems fitting to journey into interoception - what it means, how it feels, cultivating it, and bringing it into our daily experiences in order to know what actions(s) we need to take in any given moment.

In this podcast episode we…

  • review what interoception means,

  • give meaning to the word free and how our 5 senses engage with us when considering this word,

  • observe emotions, sensations, and thoughts around what free or freedom feels like in the body, and

  • practice a brief, guided meditation on opposing sensations - freedom and tension.

Grab your pen and paper (or laptop or iPad)…Place yourself in a quiet, safe, still space for the next 24 minutes and find what your body senses and your mind observes when offered the considerations of feeling free and feeling tension.

Let’s begin!

xoxo Michelle
