Practically Awake
What is the Body Shadow?
In this episode, we talk about body shadow, how hidden emotions, repressed trauma, and stories shape how we express ourselves and experience life in our bodies. I share my personal journey of uncovering my body’s story, from childhood trauma to a somatic spiritual awakening, and how ignoring my body led to burnout and a nervous system breakdown.
We’ll explore how our body is a reflection of our unconscious, storing wisdom, intuition, and memories. I’ll also discuss how societal narratives around beauty and worth shape our relationship with our bodies and how integrating body shadow can lead to profound healing.
Whether you're battling chronic shame, struggling with physical health, or just feeling disconnected, this episode is for you. Join me as I share practical steps, including writing your body’s story, learning to feel emotions safely, and seeing your body as part of your soul.
