For the first few years of my personal development & embodiment journey I was focusing on everything I needed to fix.
There was always some mindset, funky feeling, boundary, or upper limit that needed solving.
After a while, I realized that, while the skills to meet these undesirable were essential, they were not the only embodiment skills I yearned for.
What I truly wanted was to be ravished by life (not perfectly fixed).
To be broken open with the beauty of devotion flowing deep within me.
To be resourced by the great mother.
To be alive to the beauty of living.
So I had to get to work expanding my skills & stamina in the realm of embodied pleasure, devotion & aliveness.
A totally different end of the embodiment spectrum.
Today, we’re speaking on the podcast with a woman who is radiantly alive as a walking blessing (I can attest to this because she’s also a longtime very good friend).
Holly Wodetzki is an Embodiment Teacher & founder of the Sensual Embodied Dance methodology. She joins us today to share some of her devotional magic & also share with us a useful map for understanding the Embodied Movement space (this will be handy if you’re following our Embodied Movement series on the podcast right now).
In this episode, we discuss
- Becoming a walking blessing – the heart of sensual embodied dance
- The 5 qualities that make a practice “embodied” (rather than a practice that simply has you move your body)
- How to determine which kind of embodied practice you need (from the zillions available)
- Holly’s 3 levels of embodiment practices. We explore their focus & examples from each of the categories
- Packing lunchboxes & how we can do it with resentment OR resourcefulness
- We also have a delicious 5min experience of moving towards embodiment with Holly
