Wellness spaces often begin with good intentions. They offer practices, guidance, and a sense of community to those seeking support. Many people arrive in these spaces during times of transition or uncertainty, hoping to find tools for healing or clarity. But just like any other human gathering, wellness communities are not immune to harm, and sometimes, the very qualities that draw people in such as openness, trust, vulnerability, can also create conditions for harm.

We may find ourselves striving to be the quietest person in the room, the one who holds the most controlled breath, or the one who goes the ‘deepest’. Yet presence is not always peaceful.

No matter how much we practice or work with consciousness, we are human beings with life experience. Embodiment includes all of this, not just the parts that look composed from the outside.

Words like embodiment, somatics, trauma-informed, nervous system regulation and integration are everywhere in wellness spaces.

It is a practice of deep listening, of uncovering patterns, and of setting clear intentions for how we want to move forward.
