Back In My Body | mindful movement
Trauma Informed Yoga
4 SESSION SERIES
In this four session series we’re taking slow, soft tip toes into reconnection with our bodies. This series focuses on interoception - the ability to feel your internal world. You don’t have to do this alone. Your pace in honored. Your choices are celebrated.
Session 1: Holding the Self
Gentle movement, breath work, guided meditation.
Poem for contemplation:
“palm to the chest, eyes closed, I whisper to my heart:
it feels heavy & it feels hard
but, we are doing the work together
& I am going back for every piece of you”
-Hannah Uiri
Session 2: Feeling Your Internal World (Interoception)
Gentle movement, breath work, guided meditation.
Affirmation: It is safe to be in my body. // My body keeps me safe.
Session 3: Contract + Release
Gentle movement, breath work, guided meditation.
Affirmation: I am learning to love my body.
Contemplation: “Yoga teaches you to love yourself, starting with the body.” - Swami Dayananda
Session 4: A Love Note to my Body
Gentle movement, breath work, guided meditation.
Affirmation: May I move from a place of love. May I move from a place of reverence and sacred sight, recognizing my body as home.
Contemplation: “a love note to my body: first of all, I want to say thank you. for the heart you kept beating even when it was broken. for every answer you gave me in my gut. for loving me back even when I didn’t know how to love you. for every time you recovered when I pushed you past out limits. for today, for waking up.” -Cleo Wade
