Lição 1

Why We Disconnect From The Body

When you live with chronic pain or fatigue, it’s common to feel distant from your body, like it’s no longer a safe place to be. In this first lesson, we’ll talk about why that happens and why it makes sense. You’ll also be guided through a simple, grounding practice to begin reconnecting with your body in a way that feels safe and supportive.

Lição 2

Noticing The Signs Of Disconnection

This lesson helps you recognize how disconnection from your body might be showing up — like numbness, fog, or hyper-awareness of pain. You’ll try a simple practice using touch and sensory noticing to help you feel present again, without overwhelm.

Lição 3

Finding Safe Places In The Body

Today’s lesson is about discovering parts of your body that feel quiet, neutral, or just okay — even if other areas hurt. You’ll use gentle touch and attention to rest in these “safe zones,” helping your body begin to trust itself again.

Lição 4

Moving Gently From The Inside Out

In this lesson, we explore subtle, imagined movement — motion that begins inside your awareness without needing your body to perform. These inner movements help calm the nervous system and invite a sense of safety without triggering pain.

Lição 5

Soothing The Body Through The Senses

This lesson offers a gentle way to reconnect with your body using sound, scent, and temperature. These sensory anchors help calm the nervous system and create a sense of safety, especially on days when movement feels like too much.

Lição 6

Coming Home To Your Body

In this final session, we reflect on everything you’ve practiced and gently close the course. There’s no pressure to have everything figured out — just a reminder that your body is still yours, and you can return to it anytime, at your own pace.

I have been in the process of accepting but not succumbing to chronic pain in various parts of my body for a couple of decades. It is an up and down journey but it does get easier over time. This is a very gentle course to get started and a good reminder for those who have been practicing. I appreciate her final statement that healing doesn't mean...
