Description
“Unless we transform the wounds of oppression in our own bodies and then by extension into our own embodied relationships with others...no amount of macro-sociological institutional legislative change will last because we keep producing the inequities at the grass roots levels.”
In this episode, we discuss:
Personal experience always emerges out of socio-economic context
Importance of joining the personal with the professional
Moving past oppressors vs. oppressed and finding a common ground about our pain
Somatic literacy and illiteracy, cultivating somatic intelligence
Not all yoga is somatic – feeling yourself from the inside out
Rae Johnson, PhD, RSMT is a scholar/activist and registered somatic movement therapist who chairs the Somatic Studies in Depth Psychology doctoral program at Pacifica Graduate Institute. The author of several books – including Elemental Movement, Knowing in our Bones, and Embodied Social Justice – Rae teaches and trains internationally on embodied activism, somatic research methods, and the poetic body.
