10 Things I Wish Women In Business Knew About Embodiment.
10 things I wish women in the business knew about, the benefits of embodiment, and why it is so important in sacred business.
No 1: Embodiment cultivates a deeper connection to self.
Exploring embodied practices allows you as a woman in business to connect deeper into yourself, your centre, and your energy so that you are anchored, rooted, and grounded within.
No 2: Embodiment awakens creativity.
When we are embodied, we are alive in our own body and being. We are better able to access the rivers and energies of creativity and creation that live within us. We're more able to activate and awaken creativity, access it, and bring it forward into all that we create in our sacred business.
No 3: Embodiment supports nervous system regulation.
Embodiment and somatic practices support you to be able to regulate your nervous system.
In those moments in business, in creation, and in leadership that may pull you out of your centre, you are able to move from dysregulated state to a regulated state in a calm, easeful, rooted way.
Little tip: This is always going to happen. Because we're human beings with pasts, with feelings and emotions in relationship to self, to others, to our businesses. We are going to get dysregulated. But the practice of embodiment supports you to become more regulated, more easily and more quickly so that we can move from trigger or dysregulation to rooted and regulated.
No 4: Embodiment supports you to cultivate safety within business and leadership.
We're often facing more challenging moments, more challenging conversations, and big decision-making moments. Being embodied, rooted, and connected to your body allows you to cultivate that sense of safety that we all need as human beings within. Embodiment supports you to be rooted and anchored in safety in your own being and your own self. From there, we are always more equipped to make challenging decisions in our life, in our businesses and in leadership.
No 5: Embodiment expands your capacity.
When we arrive into our embodied practice and we begin the journey of expanding our capacity to move through contractions, conflicts, and challenges. We are able to hold those experiences in a more embodied and rooted way.
This, in turn, has a huge impact on all that you create and share within your world, your business, , the products and services that you offer, your community, and your audiences.
Embodiment cultivates a deeper connection to self which allows a deeper connection to others
No 6: Embodiment supports you to process your own emotions effectively.
Having an embodiment practice allows you as a business owner, a creative, a space holder, and an embodied leader to process your own emotions effectively before moving into connection with another.
Embodiment practices are a vital tool in your kit to be able to support you to process your own emotions effectively and cleanly. This is to ensure that you are not on a journey or a process of projecting pains, feelings, or emotions, onto situations, relationships, clients, or experiences.
Having these tools and practices in place allows you to process what is there, feel what needs to be felt, release the charge and step forward and on with whatever it is that you're creating or sharing with the world.
No 7: Embodiment supports you to expand your capacity to hold space
Whether you are in the space holding industry as a healer, coach, or therapist, whether you are a product-based business, an online service provider, a VA, or working in marketing and any creative space - we are all in a relationship with another. We are in relationships with clients, audiences, the community, and team members. Having an embodiment practice expands your capacity to be able to hold space for others for those whom you're in a relationship with.
It expands your capacity to hold space for yourself and the multiverse of emotions and feelings that may arise on the journey of entrepreneurship, creation, business, and within the realm of relationships, which is what all of this is.
No. 8: Embodiment supports you to cultivate presence.
Embodiment allows you to be present with yourself, present in your day-to-day tasks, in your to-do lists, and in your creations.
It allows you to be present within your interactions, within your business, and your leadership - whether that be with clients, your team members, your audience, or with those whom you are in co-creation with.
Having presence supports a deepening of connection and relationship with those that you are connecting with and in relationship to. Presence is a beautiful gift to offer when you are in business and it really is rooted in service. Presence as an embodied leader is a vital expression and energy to cultivate.
No. 9: Embodiment supports you to expand your compassion.
When we are rooted and anchored in our body, we're able to sense the felt experience of others.
From here we have a greater understanding and a greater capacity and compassion available in the relationships to our business and our creations. This is really important if you are in the space holding in the coaching field because that ability to attune to others is vital in offering space holding to witness, feel, hear, and understand your clients.
If you're not in that realm of work, we are all on some level holding space for everyone and everything even outside of our business. Life is a journey of offering space to others and holding space while simultaneously being able to hold yourself and give space for yourself too. Having that expanded compassion and that ability to attune to self-other. Human being to human being.
No. 10: Being an embodied woman activates a greater capacity to receive more.
When we are truly embodied, we are present, we are in the moment, we are open, and we are soft.
We are receptive to the presence of what is unfolding here and now. When we are disembodied, disassociated, and detached, we are often in a historical timeline or a future one that's not even been created yet.
Having an embodiment practice and awakening into embodied leadership allows you to open a greater capacity to be receptive and to receive.
The spaces that you hold, the relationships that you have and all of that feed back into the loop of making you a fuller, richer, embodied leader.
This sense of grounding and rooting, being anchored within yourself, centered, and able to understand everything that's going on in every moment within your business because you are present and grounded. You have compassion and the ability to move through, challenge, and conflict and arrive at a resolution in a more easeful, smooth, and regulated way.
These are the benefits plus many, many more of becoming an embodied leader.
Having an embodiment practice as a woman in business is vital for these times.
Nurturing yourself, nurturing the relationship with your body, nurturing your own energy, emotions, and feelings, being able to cultivate safety within yourself, and learning practices to regulate your nervous system all support you to deepen into connection to yourself which in turn allows a greater connection within your business creations.
If this is speaking to you and you know this is the missing piece for you and your journey in business, creation, leadership, space, holding and so much more.
