emotional health
“The body is not a thing we have, but an experience we are."
- Theresa Silow
The dominant narrative of healthcare views our bodies as machines and typically doesn't consider our emotional and mental experiences as contributing to our physical experiences.
However, as we learn more about how the body and mind work together as one, we understand that our bodies reflect our inner emotional-mental life.
How we feel and what we think is reflected in how our bodies react and behave.
It is our vessel that holds important information that can help us learn and discern.
Being curious about our bodies and what they might be physically communicating from an emotional-mental lens, opens up space to explore ourselves and make sense of our experiences.
Finding ways to notice and acknowledge our different experiences, and how they show up in our body, becomes an important pathway to health.
Developing embodied emotional knowledge is central to cultivating healthy relationships, both with ourselves and those we navigate life alongside.
