Somatic Wisdom

Hello Lovelies, I have the great delight of interviewing Sarah Young, who I've had the privilege to work with this year on some coaching clients, and a behind the scenes project for her business. In addition, Sarah generously co-sponsored training for me at CTI for their Fundamentals course. I'm indebted to her for this support, as it has helped me improve my coaching tremendously.  A machine generated transcript is available via Descript at this link.  The main links mentioned in the episode are here: Main page: https://www.zingcollaborative.com/ Book page: https://www.zingcollaborative.com/book Friday Favorites page: https://www.zingcollaborative.com/fridayfavorites   Thank you for listening!  *** To show your gratitude for this show, you can make a one-time gift to support Somatic Wisdom with this link.

Hello Lovely Listeners!  This episode is sponsored by the Lunar Cycle Workshop, brought to you by Patrick Geary, who has been a guest on this show. Thank you for your support, Patrick!  Today you’ll be hearing from the author of two books, Intuitive Writing and the Unfussy Life. Jacqueline Fisch is an author, copywriter, writing coach, and the founder of The Intuitive Writing School. She helps creatives move past writer’s block and perfectionism so they can finish their important work, and she supports business owners in finding their authentic voice so they can make an impact on the world. *** Key takeaways from this conversation:  Do you writing and editing separately, not in the same work session.  To stay nimble after a layoff, start taking action soon after the event.  Starting a business while you are still at a "main gig" gives you a good runway to build without too much pressure. Writing with the lunar phases can improve your results. From our conversation and the Intuitive Writing book: During the new moon (dark moon/winter) phase: write intentions for your project, and dedicate time to journaling without specific action. Get extra rest, get quiet, meditate and walk in nature. Block your calendar to create spaciousness without meetings if possible. During the waxing moon/spring/follicular phase: you may notice you have a lot of ideas during this time. Brainstorm and capture them, and possibly start taking action with "shitty first drafts" during this time.  During the full moon/summer/ovulation phase: use this opportunity as "visibility" time. If you do a book or release party, it's a great time for it. The extra light in the sky gives you more energy. You might share some of your work with readers for feedback. Consider what's being illuminated that you might need to release. During the waning moon/fall/luteal phase: Do your "gathering" at this time. Harvest those words and ideas that have been simmering. Edit your drafts to really make them shine, since you may have more attention to detail. To keep in touch with Jacq Fisch:  https://jacquelinefisch.com/ https://theintuitivewritingschool.com/ To purchase her books:  Intuitive Writing: The Remedy for Writer's Block and the Secret to Authentic Communication The Unfussy Life: An Intuitive Guide to Navigating Change *** Special Sponsor for this episode! To sign up for the next Lunar Cycle Workshop offered by Patrick Geary from Sept 14-Oct 12 (I'm already on the list for this one!) find out more here. This is a 5-session weekly experiential workshop offered by donation.  If it is after September 14th and you still want to join, use this link to send Patrick a message and to receive the recordings. If you are interested after September 22nd or after feel free to subscribe to Patrick's Substack, where you will receive wisdom, and also be notified when the next lunar workshop is offered.  *** If you want to leave us a voice message, Somatic Wisdom is now on Speakpipe!

Hello Lovelies, This is a solo podcast on the kinds of things that can help get us into action when we are stuck on a big project or something that's hard for us to do. You'll hear about my writing process and some advice from the Intuitive Writing book my Jacqueline Fisch. She will be on the podcast in ~2 weeks talking to us more about her book and writing process.

This is an excerpt of the interview episode (episode 64). It is a practice for anxiety or before social situations from a Somatic Wisdom guest, Raina LaGrand. Raina LaGrand (she/her) is a somatic therapist, yoga teacher, speaker and facilitator specializing in racial identity, trauma, relationships and embodiment. In her practice, Root to Rise Somatics, she primarily helps mixed race adults and interracial couples build relationships where they feel emotionally connected, and she also works with people of all identities when her schedule allows. Outside of clinical work, Raina provides embodiment-based workshops and trainings for companies invested in anti-racism and social justice. Raina lives with her dog on occupied Anishinaabe land (Ypsilanti, Michigan, USA).  *** Check out Raina's offerings at Root to Rise Somatics.  Her Instagram is Root to Rise Somatics.  *** Support for this podcast comes from readers of Unleash, Unlearn, and Enliven, from clients, and from listeners like you.

I am delighted to have the opportunity to talk with Raina Lagrand for this episode.  Raina LaGrand (she/her) is a somatic therapist, yoga teacher, speaker and facilitator specializing in racial identity, trauma, relationships and embodiment. In her practice, Root to Rise Somatics, she primarily helps mixed race adults and interracial couples build relationships where they feel emotionally connected, and she also works with people of all identities when her schedule allows. Outside of clinical work, Raina provides embodiment-based workshops and trainings for companies invested in anti-racism and social justice. Raina lives with her dog on occupied Anishinaabe land (Ypsilanti, Michigan, USA). I hope you will enjoy our coverage of sensorimotor psychotherapy and how it helps us become more aware of our experience, following activation in the body, and becoming more embodied even if we have been through trauma. We talk through how it feels to navigate spaces when we are "outsiders" in a group, not belonging necessarily to a particular group in a way. We need to understand broader context, and how some of our trauma is actually subconsious and and preverbal. Healing these identities and having connections through family or learning aspects of our identity, beyond racial and cultural aspects. What do we value? How do we spend our time? What do we like to do? These all make up aspects of our value.  Sometimes we need to understand how our origin stories play into the become we have become. We also make choices about how we situate ourselves.  We speak about rejection sensitivity and how this plays a part not just in conditions like ADHD. Our mixed identities can sometimes lead to certain types of unknown rejection, and this can make us more sensitive to this process.  We explore the notion of being part of a "mixed" identity and how we need to serve as elders in a way, that this will be something we can created that we didn't have.  Raina explores her "Somatic Skills for Anxiety" class which available for purchase on her website.  To some extent, all of us struggle with interacting in groups. Loneliness is a big part of major health risk, and is at epidemic proportions according the Surgeon General.  Raina shares a practice called "the U turn" when she is working with couples, and things we can implement when we are working in relationship.  She offers a practice toward the end of our conversation to help ground ourselves.  *** Check out Raina's offerings at Root to Rise Somatics.  Her Instagram is also Root to Rise Somatics.  *** Support for this podcast comes from readers of Unleash, Unlearn, and Enliven, from clients, and from listeners like you.

Hello My Lovelies! I can't believe I haven't yet covered the topic of pleasure as a standalone episode. It's probably been embedded in some of the other themes we have covered. But I think this will be the first of a monthly series because it's a rich topic and there's so much more to cover.  Hope you enjoy the excerpts of my post Dance Church bliss and my reflections on the pleasure of solitude and letting my vacation mind wander.  References mentioned: adrienne marie brown's book: Pleasure Activism S2 E14 - Natalya Kolosowsky (episode 50 of Somatic Wisdom) S1 E27 - The Joy of NIA with Beth Giles Dunbar's number SPECIAL OFFER FROM INSTACART: $30 OFF YOUR FIRST ORDER (AND I GET $10 TOWARD MY NEXT ORDER) OFFER CODE: CDELACRUZ25C149 https://www.instacart.com/store Support for this podcast comes from readers of Unleash, Unlearn, and Enliven, from clients, and from listeners like you.

Welcome to the first episode of season 3!  I am going back into the concept of intution and asking you to practice asking your body parts for wisdom, especially when you suspect you might be taking on too much.  We may be surprised when we tune into a specific question and ask our heart, head, or gut about a decision? Or maybe we tune into our shoulders instead for a less conventional check in to ask:  Where is it I'm overdoing things?  What are you carrying right not that feels like too much?  Give these a try and let me know what you discover!  Resources Mentioned: Harvard Study on Enteric Nervous System Altered Traits book by Daniel Goleman and Richard Davidson Penny Peirce - Author and Guru for Intuition ;-)  Podcast episodes mentioned:  S2 E60 Somatics of Time, Chronos, Kairos, Solstice, Lunar Consciousness, Neurodiversity, & Shining Our Light with Patrick Geary S2 E42 Sustainable Ambition and Using Curiosity as Our Compass with Kathy Oneto S2 E46 Reclaim Your Peace with Stephanie Lindloff of Our Natural Wisdom S2 E58 Dana Miranda, Creator of Healthy Rich, on Budget Culture, Inclusion in Finance Media and the Somatics of Money *** For more resources, subscribe to my the Somatic Wisdom Substack newsletter, where much of this content can be found in essay form.

Hi My Lovelies, In response to our previous episode (58) with Dana Miranda of Healthy Rich on somatic practice to work with our difficult money stories. I discovered from Bari Tessler's book The Art of Money workbook (from the podcast Inside Job with Nayla Bahri and Eric Johnson).  Tessler does a lot of the practices that I actually detailed in my book but she applies them specifically to our difficult emotions around money, and almost ALL of us have these, no matter how much money we make.  What I love is the 3 step set of practices for our money dates or money clarity sessions as I think of them:  Body Check-in - feel and sense into your body and notice what's happening Resource Ourselves - make adjustments Titration - go slow and take it at your own pace Rather than avoiding bad feelings, it is helpful to lean into them, describe where they appear in our bodies and realize they are not going to harm us. We can physically resource ourselves and make our money clarity session into a comforting ritual can help us approach it more gently.  I actually walk through my own feelings about money regret so you can be with me during one of these practices.  Hope this provides some helpful support to you!  And if my work is helpful to you and you want to send me a birthday gift or make a contribution to support my work at the Somatic Wisdom podcast, my Venmo ID is @Cristy-DeLaCruz. ;-) *** If you want to leave us a voice message, Somatic Wisdom is now on Speakpipe!
