New Body-Wise Website Graphic - Updated 2024

Description:

 

Body-Wise™ is a somatic approach to body-mind connection, well-being, mindfulness, and meditation. You'll learn the benefits of the method of tapping into the body's wisdom and neuro-sympathetic systems, its practical application with a guided session, and how to "listen" to the body and its energy centers of your mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical being for health and wellness. The practice of this modality deepens your sense of self-awareness, decision-making, and mental, emotional, and physical health and well-being. It is the *precursor to being able to delve deeply and from an enhanced broader perspective through the *Soul-Wise Integrative Method.

​

Some Reported Benefits:

​

  • Post-workout winddown                                                   

  • Improve immunity

  • Improve mental health

  • Balance energy

  • Improve body-mind connection

  • Improve physical health

  • Reduce anxiety

  • Reduce depression

  • Increase in better choices and habits

​

​

In the Body-Wise™ method, you learn how to sense the energy of each center, or chakra, to become familiar with the sensation of each center and any energy patterns associated with each area that correlate to the body, mind, and emotions. This practice blends science-backed behavioral health methods for the body-mind coherence process, with practical exercises in spiritual attunement and alignment that aid in allowing for greater clarity for deeper spiritual practices, self-healing, and knowing the body's somatic or "felt sense" messages of your energy patterns and nervous system.

"With awareness, you have more choices. When you feel better, you will do better. As you feel better, you'll know better, and do better." ~ Josephine

To best prepare have a quiet place where you may lay, or partially recline comfortably without disruptions. Have a headset to clearly hear being guided through an online session. Dress comfortably. Have a glass of water nearby and a journal.

​

​

Being open, receptive, and having a genuine desire to know yourself will enhance the quality of your experience. Results vary and are not guaranteed as it is individualized. Your facilitator is held free of any liability, as you must take full responsibility for your own well-being. If you are currently being treated for any health, mental, emotional, or psychological matters, please consult with your healthcare providers before participating in this practice. During the process, it may cause a release of mental, physical, or emotional blocks that arise in the form of strong emotions, or old memories that temporarily arise to be recognized and processed.

"I completed my first remote session with Josephine today and it was truly awe-inspiring. The BEM - Blended Energy Method [now called Body-Wise] meditation was so peaceful and relaxing, and I feel very serene right now.

"I've never met anyone that remembers being conscious of themselves before being born. Somehow I think this add's to Josephine's ability to somehow know - or feel, how my energy needs to be adjusted, moved, or cleared to feel better.

I have to say that every time I've gotten a [Body-Wise] session - which I've had several over the course of about 6 months, I leave feeling better in one way or another." - Steven
