The Four Pillars Of Movement

The four pillars in Concious Movement are the key for a successful expierence for the transformation, transmutation and trancesendence of the energy from the core emotions

1. Movement Of The Body

Within Concious Movement we use somatic movement practices and dance as a way to move the body into a different state of being.

Body Awareness and Mind-Body Connection

Somatic movement creates mindfulness and body awareness, helping individuals tune into sensations and emotions stored in the body. This awareness can unlock unconscious emotional blocks, enabling the release of suppressed emotions.

Stimulating the Nervous System

Movement, especially rhythmic and repetitive movement, stimulates the nervous system and can help shift it out of a fight-or-flight (sympathetic) state into a more relaxed and balanced (parasympathetic) state. This shift allows the body to process and release stored emotional energy.

Releasing Trauma Stored in the Body

How it helps: According to somatic experiencing theory, trauma is stored in the body and can be processed through movement. By using movement and dance, individuals can allow their bodies to release long-held physical tension, enabling emotional memories and pain to surface and be processed.

2. Movement Of The Mind

To move the mind and truly transform the way that we feel we incorporate guided meditations and journaling exercises to fully support transformation of the mind.

Increased Awareness and Mindfulness

Meditation fosters a state of mindfulness, allowing you to observe your thoughts and emotions without judgment. By becoming more aware of your internal world, you can identify emotions that are being suppressed or ignored.

Emotional Detachment and Acceptance

Meditation creates non-attachment to thoughts and emotions, allowing them to arise, be felt, and then pass away naturally. This helps you detach from emotional patterns and judgments, making it easier to let go of stuck emotions.

Externalizing and Processing Emotions

Writing down your thoughts and emotions helps externalize them, making it easier to process and understand what you’re feeling. This can prevent emotions from staying trapped inside, reducing the likelihood of emotional overwhelm.

Combined Impact of Meditation and Journaling

When used together, meditation and journaling amplify each other’s benefits. Meditation helps you access deeper emotions and cultivate awareness, while journaling provides a practical outlet for processing and releasing those emotions. This combination creates a holistic approach to emotional healing, helping you release, understand, and transform deep-seated emotional patterns.

3. Movement Of The Voice

To really transmute the stagnant emotion in the body we use the voice and different kind of voice liberation practices to fully release what no longer serves you

Accessing Emotions Through the Voice

The voice is deeply connected to emotions. Suppressed emotions often manifest as tension in the throat, jaw, or chest. By using the voice these blocked emotions can be released.

Reconnecting to Authentic Expression

Many people suppress their true feelings and expressions due to fear, shame, or societal conditioning. Voice liberation allows you to reclaim your authentic voice, breaking through emotional blocks and restoring confidence in self-expression.

Shifting Energy Through Sound

Sound is a vibrational force that can shift stuck emotional and energetic patterns in the body. By creating sound, the body becomes a resonant chamber for clearing blocked energy, facilitating emotional release and healing.

4. Movement Of Breath

Through different use of the breath and breathwork exercises we enable your capacity to fully transcend the energy of the stagnant emotion within your body, mind and soul.

Increasing Body Awareness

Breathwork creates mindfulness and body awareness. By focusing on the breath, you become more attuned to physical sensations in the body, where emotions are often stored as tension or discomfort.

Unlocking Repressed Emotions

Breathwork helps to bypass the conscious mind and access deeper layers of the subconscious, where repressed emotions and memories are often stored. By consciously breathing, you may begin to unearth emotions that you weren’t aware of or were too painful to confront.

Improving Mental Clarity and Focus

Breathwork clears mental fog by improving oxygen flow to the brain, which can facilitate clarity and insight. This mental clarity can support emotional processing, allowing you to gain perspective on your emotions and release them more effectively.
