What is Self-Empathy and How to Use it as Your Superpower.

Spoken word is often difficult for me. I gravitate towards writing, where I have more time to articulate my message. Many of you reading this can probably relate to this.

Embodied

Beginners Tips To Embodiment.

Embodiment, a tangible or visible form of an idea, quality, or feeling. Or as I briefly described in my last post, it is having full access to your body. Our bodies know what to do.

Today, we had an impromptu conversation on success and “What does success mean to you?”. This was the perfect topic to discuss next on the blog.
