Reclaiming the Core
Exercises
Connect with inner child
Place two pillows on the floor. One for your adult self and one for your inner child. Set the intention to connect with your inner child and explore sitting on both pillows. I am inviting you to be very gentle and understanding. There are different aspects of our child that could show up and sometimes these are wounded or angry, so be compassionate and give yourself time to listen.
Sit on your options
If you are struggling to make a decision, write your options on separate pieces of paper and numerate them without knowing which option is associated with which number. Now sit on each paper and write down what comes up for you. What are you feeling, sensing in your body? Has your breathing changed? What are your thoughts? Afterwards you can find out which option felt the best.
One with Nature
Choose an aspect of nature that represents what you need at this moment. A tree could ground you, or water could soothe you. Use a pillow again to tap into this energy and soak up what it is you need with gratitude.
