Transcript

This somatic exercise focuses on your sense of touch.

Touch is fundamental to connecting yourself with the world.

It allows for you to experience texture,

Temperature,

And pressure,

And can sometimes even evoke a wide range of emotions and sensations.

For this exercise,

Take some time to go out in nature and explore the different textures that you come across.

Run your fingers over the rough bark of a tree.

Notice the softness of a flower petal,

Or the coolness of a smooth stone.

As you touch and explore different textures,

Notice the quality of each one.

What does it feel like?

How does it make you feel?

Do you have a preferred texture,

Temperature,

Or pressure?

After exploring for a few minutes,

Take note,

Reflect on what you experienced,

And consider how you can incorporate the textures,

The temperatures,

Or the pressure that you enjoyed into your daily life.

Remember that touch is a powerful sense that we often overlook,

But it is essential for our well-being.

Take the time to explore and appreciate the textures around you,

And see how it can enhance your connection to the world.
