Feel Safer On The Inside - by Alison Potts
COURSE

Feel Safer On The Inside

With Alison Potts

Have you ever noticed that even when things seem okay, your body doesn’t quite feel it? There can be a background sense of tension -a holding -a quiet alertness that never fully switches off. And often, we don’t realise it’s there—we just live inside it. This course offers a different way of working with that. Rather than trying to think your way out of stress or anxiety, you’ll learn simple, accessible, body-based practices that help your nervous system settle from the inside out. What you’ll learn: -How to recognise when your body is holding tension or staying on alert -Simple ways to help your system feel more grounded and supported - How to stay with your experience without becoming overwhelmed - Practical tools to release stress and come back to steadiness - How to shift your inner dialogue so it supports rather than unsettles you What to expect This is a practical, experiential course. You’ll be guided through a series of short, accessible practices you can use in everyday life, in different situations. When we repeatedly give our body a felt sense of safety - even for a moment or two - it gradually begins to come down from "constant emergency mode" and find a baseline of inner security and support.

Body-based practices for calming anxiety and settling the nervous system.
