14-days to stronger interoception + emotional regulation
I tune into the signals of my body and give myself what I need.
Interoception:
Our ability to notice and interpret body sensations and emotions, and respond to them in order to meet our own needs. When we improve interoception, we become better able to regulate our emotions, support our nervous system and practice self-care.
Start speaking the language of the body
We’ve put together a series of practices that are especially effective for building interoception. They will help you:
Commit to 14 days of practice to feel a palpable shift
Research shows improvements in emotional regulation + stress are noticeable within 2 weeks of daily practice - with significant progress emerging over 8-10 weeks.
Be patient with yourself, and think of it like a muscle you are building - the more you practice, the stronger your interoception becomes.
