Body-Informed Leadership: Restoring the Cultural Somatics of Connection

…

Body-Informed Leadership teaches that, in order to write a “New Story” based in interconnection, we must learn new ways of relating to our bodies. Our bodies are the place where the most ancient, forgotten stories of our cultures play out; stories which often involve inherited trauma, unprocessed grief, and unconscious dysregulation.

As a result, although we may yearn for connective ways of living and interacting with others, many of us unconsciously embody disconnective patterns in our moment-by-moment ways of being.

Body-Informed Leadership supports us to change these patterns by teaching new ways to understand and relate to our body’s signals.
