Learning to Live Somatically

In this episode, Steven Jaggers and Adam Carbary explore what it truly means to live somatically and why modern life has pulled people away from their body, emotions, and inner truth. Steven breaks down the tension between constantly trying to become something versus learning to simply be who you already are. Together, they unpack a powerful framework of the head, heart, and body, and how each shapes human experience, relationships, and personal growth. This conversation offers a grounded perspective for anyone feeling stuck in their mind or caught in the endless cycle of self-improvement.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00 - Introduction to Somatics03:30 - What “Living Wholeness” Means07:20 - The Three Centers: Head, Heart, Body11:00 - The Trap of Becoming14:15 - Self-Development as Self-Attack17:10 - Missing Life’s Simple Pleasures22:00 - Opening the Heart26:20 - The Parenting Perspective31:20 - Becoming vs Being in Relationships35:30 - The Role of a Practitioner40:30 - Why the Heart is Central45:00 - The Emotion You Avoid48:40 - Speaking Your Truth51:10 - The Truth is a Statement52:05 - Final Reflections🧘‍♀️ Learn more about Soma+IQ↪ https://www.somaiqtraining.comSupport the show
