Description

While in collaboration in WMNKND and Mind & Muse, Hannah from Clever Babes Co is here to help us reconnect with our bodies to feel genuinely safe in our emotions, and build a sense of community in Kansas City.. all through a little bit of spooky journaling! At this event, we will be relaxing together and journaling, using prompts and affirmations provided by Hannah. Hannah will guide us in how to find somatic patterns in our writing, and how to notice and bring awareness to your emotions manifesting in your body. (Fascinating stuff, am I right??) Here's what you need to bring: a journal and pena pillow and blanket (only if you want to -- lets get cozy!)relaxed attire :) (think.. slumber party vibes.)Besides that, we will all be able to relax in the Mind & Muse space, journal together, and learn something new about our minds and bodies. Snacks and drinks will be provided! So, what is Somatic Journaling? Somatic Journaling is a trauma informed approach to journaling for self care. Trauma educator, Hannah Milks will introduce principals of Somatic Experiencing® and help you incoprorate them into your journaling routine to deepen your connection to your body and help you learn how to feel in control of your healing. Hannah, a local trauma educator and researcher, will be teaching us how to use several basic healing principals from Somatic Experiencing while journaling. In her own self care practice she has found that adding bodily awareness to journaling has deepened her relationship with her body and helped her move through emotions rather than getting stuck in them. Hannah believes what makes somatic experiencing so special is that is emphasizes feeling safe and supported before exploring the depths of our experiences as human beings. Her goal is to help you feel in control of your healing, because at the end of the day you know your body best.
