SOMATIC REFLECTION PRACTICE

Purpose:
To bring awareness to where your energy is being directed and how that shapes your inner experience.

Duration:
7:12 minutes

Why it works:
The body organises itself around what feels familiar. By consciously noticing patterns of attention, this practice creates choice and interrupts automatic loops that reinforce scarcity or tension.
