24. Listening to your Body

from The Slowdown · host Katherine Gluck | Embodiment and Mindfulness Guide

This week’s episode explores the mind-body connection and the many ways the body communicates through sensation. Together, we look at what it means to slow down enough to notice tightness, tension, heaviness, restlessness, numbness, and other sensations that can hold information beneath the surface.Through reflection and a guided somatic practice, this episode invites you to move away from immediately fixing or analyzing what you feel, and instead practice staying with it—breathing, moving, listening, and becoming curious about what your body might be trying to communicate.We also explore the importance of discernment, self-trust, and balancing emotional awareness with grounded physical care.This episode includes a gentle lying-down somatic practice to help you connect with sensation, intuitive movement, and the quieter layers of yourself through the body.Take a breath.
