In this conversation, Risa Dickens and guest, somatic practitioner Lise Lønsmann, discuss the significance of being in our bodies and how it is a revolutionary act against the patriarchy. We explore how patriarchy benefits from keeping individuals disconnected from their bodies, and how reconnecting through embodied rituals is a sacred process. Lise shares her personal journey of disconnection from her body and how a cancer scare catalyzed her somatic healing. She emphasizes the importance of non-judgmental somatic resourcing, building safety within oneself, and the need for small, consistent practices that can cultivate deeper self-awareness and aliveness. We also touch on the impact of childhood trauma on body awareness, the revolutionary nature of caring for oneself, and how small acts of embodiment can contribute to larger societal change. Additionally, Lise shares examples of her own embodied rituals and discusses the empowering aspects of witchcraft and magic in reclaiming our power and aliveness.
