5. The power of our body: Understanding and accessing embodied habits for a more fulfilled life

Wake Up and Pay Attention

Ever noticed how changing your body posture can instantly shift your thinking, speaking, listening, and/or your current emotion or mood?

Many of us move through our days on autopilot, letting old habits dictate our actions, emotions, thoughts and our ability to communicate. It's easy to feel like we’re not choosing, we’re just going through the motions without making real progress towards our goals and dreams.

In this episode, we’ll explore the third and final circle—our body, or biology. We'll unpack the concept of "embodied habits" and see how our daily actions, even the smallest ones, are rooted in deeply ingrained patterns. But it's not just about recognizing these embodied habits, it's about understanding how to change them to new habits that work better for us!

You'll learn about a groundbreaking framework called “The Five Rings Model” by Dr. Stuart Heller that reveals how our typical body disposition - our posture and movements - can lock us into certain emotional states and behaviors, and how adding other dispositions to our daily repertoire can lead us to a more fulfilled and authentic life.

I'll share personal stories and insights on how recognizing and altering my own embodied habits has led to significant changes in how I think, feel, and act.

Tune in to discover practical tips and exercises to start noticing and changing your own stubborn, entrenched habits that don’t work for you for personal growth.
