Show Notes:
What do we do when we can’t do anything about the situation we’re in? Sometimes no matter how much we want to actively change a situation, we can’t. It could be because we’re just waiting for a certain date on the calendar to arrive, or we have done what we could and now we’re stuck waiting for the results, or maybe because of financial reasons. In these moments, we can turn to our body to give us information to help us co-exist with the discomfort of not being able to act. It doesn’t mean that this makes everything feel okay, but it does give us some power back when it all seems so unknown or uncertain.

In this Session, we discuss how we can work with our physiology when we can’t make big moves. There are so many things we cannot control but we can help our body shift. We're even providing examples of how we support the physical sensations of discomfort, the looping thoughts, and the need for our brain to still play an active role.
