What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? Shelley Treacher, a BACP Accredited Somatic Psychotherapist, offers a refreshing perspective on grounding exercises for anxiety and stress relief. In this episode, Shelley takes listeners through a gentle somatic therapy practice that aims to help you release tension, reduce anxiety, and find stability within yourself. The focus is on grounding—a simple yet powerful method to calm the nervous system and foster a sense of safety in your body.
Shelley emphasises that this practice isn't about perfection or following rigid instructions. Instead, it's an invitation to explore what feels right for you at your own pace. Imagine a tree with deep roots; grounding helps you feel more connected to yourself and your surroundings, making your own 'roots' deeper. Through guided breathing exercises, Shelley encourages you to notice even the smallest shifts in your body, reinforcing the idea that every tiny change counts.
The episode offers practical advice on how to incorporate grounding into daily life, whether you're sitting, standing, or lying down. Shelley’s approach is empathetic and non-judgemental, recognising that sometimes being told what to do with your body can be overwhelming. She suggests taking simple steps to support your nervous system, like breathing deeply and allowing your body to relax into the ground.
With a mix of personal anecdotes and broader insights, this episode is perfect for anyone looking to manage anxiety and stress in a gentle, supportive way. So, are you ready to feel more grounded and secure in your daily life? Dive into this episode and see how grounding can transform your approach to stress and anxiety.
