Substance

Substance Everyone deserves to live a good life: to have a healthy body, a clear mind, loving family and friends.

Somatic exercises are often simple, short, and easy to do on your own. Try a few today and notice how you feel.

Body scan – Slowly bring awareness from head to toe, noticing areas of tension and relaxation.
Grounding through the feet – Stand tall, feel your feet on the floor, and gently shift your weight side to side.
Progressive muscle release – Tense and then relax each muscle group, one at a time.
Gentle shaking – Lightly shake arms, legs, and torso to release stored stress.
Pendulation – Notice a place in your body that feels tense, then shift focus to an area that feels calm, moving awareness back and forth.
Orienting exercise – Slowly look around your space, noticing colors, textures, and shapes to bring yourself into the present.
Breath with movement – Inhale while lifting your arms, exhale as you lower them, matching breath to motion.
Touch and tap – Cross your arms across your chest with your palms on your shoulders. Gently tap your left shoulder with your right hand, and then your right shoulder with your left hand. Continue alternating tapping. *st
