I’ve been noticing lately is how little most of us actually touch ourselves...not in a skincare routine, fixing our hair or pointing out our flaws kind of way.
I mean the kind of touch that says, I’m here.
A hand on your heart.
A hand on your belly.
Wrapping your arms around yourself for a moment.
It sounds so simple, but self-touch can be incredibly regulating for the nervous system.
Sometimes our bodies aren’t asking for another mindset shift or breakthrough.
Sometimes they’re asking for comfort.
Lately I’ve been loving butterfly hugs with gentle swaying or slow circular movements with the elbows, almost like tracing the path of a sundial through the sky.
Nothing dramatic.
Nothing to achieve.
Just giving the body a chance to feel supported, held & noticed.
It’s amazing how often the body softens when it realizes someone is finally paying attention.
And sometimes that someone is you 🫶🏻
