In this episode we chat with Daniell Gomez, Embodiment Coach, on alllllll things Embodiment. What is it? How do we do it? Are there any special secrets? Daniell breaks it all down and tells us how Embodiment can be so sweet, nourishing, and simple. She reminds us how embodiment can be as gentle as asking your body exactly what it needs today, and as expressive as jumping up and down or dancing. Sometimes it's more about being with what is instead of forcing a release. Daniell shares info about an upcoming workshop she's hosting, as well as tips for including Embodiment in your spiritual tool-kit.
