In this episode, somatic practitioner, Shelly Reed, and I discusses the importance of incorporating play and joy into our lives. Somatic practices focus on body-based experiences and developing awareness of how emotions manifest in the body. Shelly shares her personal journey with anxiety and chronic illness and how she rediscovered her true self through somatic work and play. She emphasizes the need to prioritize play and offers suggestions for finding personal play modalities. Shelly also discusses her work with clients and the benefits of somatic practices for healing and self-discovery.
