This year, I’ve let go of New Year’s resolutions. They always seemed to come with an invisible weight, a pressure to become or achieve something that isn’t here yet. Instead, I’m softening into invitations; leaning into a gentler, more embodied way of moving through life.
Somatics is, at its heart, always about invitation. An invitation to listen, to sense, to trust the body as it is right now. It’s a practice of meeting yourself with curiosity, not force; of welcoming what’s already present, instead of striving to fix or change.
As David Whyte so beautifully reflects:
“What kind of invitation am I? What kind of invitation am I making to life and to others - what or who am I drawing into my life, visible and invisible? Is there any invitation at all?”
