Episode #319: Somatics 101 with Steven Jaggers
As entrepreneurs, we can spend more time than most inside our own heads. It’s easy to become overwhelmed with the many things that need our attention every day (and this goes double for mamapreneurs!). By discovering how to tap into the innate power that your body has to control your nervous system, you can introduce new focus and peace into your everyday life — and learn how to better handle your dizzying mental load.
In this episode of The Business of Thinking Big, I sit down with the brilliant Steven Jaggers, the inventor of the SomatIQ Breathwork™ modality. As an educator and healer, Steven has an unwavering passion for unlocking human potential, and embracing the harmony of structural and intuitive movement fuels his journey.
During this fascinating conversation, we explore the science behind the mind-body connection, how somatics help to re-integrate the mind and body, and what you can do to reclaim your sovereignty over your own body.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- The power of breathwork to change the state of your nervous system and regulate the processing of both food and emotions
- The concept of co-regulation (and how to leverage your sensory connection with your kids!)
- A simple but powerful somatic awareness practice that will help you reconnect to your body
