Day 2: Purge & Release
Hello! Welcome back. I hope you enjoyed your self care practice from our first class and I'm celebrating you for returning for Day 2!
​
The second tool for doing self care that actually nourishes you is the practice of purging and releasing stuck energy and emotions and out-dated thought patterns.
​
In this class, we talk about stagnation and the liver channel in Chinese medicine as well nervous system regulation and the very important step of purging before our bodies and minds can start to relax.
Practice
Today your practice is to take time to release: today choose shaking or journaling depending on your energy levels.
​
Shaking is an ancient practice used by many cultures to release stuck energy and stress as well as to support the body to stay fluid and balanced. Animals also use shaking to release a traumatic event.
​
Take some time to try it out within your framework from Day 1. Set a time, create the space and make an intention.
​
If you'd like to do it along with me, here is a short video.
See you for our final class tomorrow where we explore celebrations, gratitude and pleasure.
P.S. If you missed it, yesterday's lesson can be found here.

I've included journal prompts to help you get you started on your release practice.
