Embodiment Practices for TIC
Welcome to this TIC Embodiment offering! We look forward to exploring the grounding and regulation possible through internally attuned, intentional engagement that honors both the emotional and physical sensations of reorganizing and processing that may arise throughout this series.
Many of the movements and postures offered here, as well as the theoretical concepts that underlie them, are influenced by yogic science that originates from South Asia.
This offering was developed in partnership with T. Aisha Edwards, LMHC and Tara Sonali Miller from Radical Rest. You can reach the creators of this project at:

Reflection Journal
This reflection journal is designed to accompany the videos below to support reflections on the foundations of embodiment. All questions and suggested activities are optional.
Embodiment and regulation are crucial for emergency management and disaster workers. These professionals are often exposed to acutely stressful, and sometimes traumatic, situations. Ongoing exposure to stress can impact mental, emotional, and physical well-being of the workforce. Stress activation can influence access to key skills to these professions, including decision-making, sensory input, impulse control, and empathy. This journal offers additional reflections to support these professionals. However, it is a useful tool for anyone invested in these embodiment practices.
