EMBODY with Michelle Major

In this weeks episode, Michelle, explores the theme of consent, boundary rupture and repair.
***TRIGGER WARNING***
Please note there are references to the types of boundary ruptures we might experience. For example, sexual, domestic/emotional abuse, control, stalking, and harassment so please mind yourself and take breaks if you need to.

• The balance of power
• Why power is impactful
• Nervous system responses
• Moving from immobility to mobility
• Why consent is important in the therapeutic relationship
• Cultural and societal impacts
• Myths
• Victim Blaming
• Repairing our boundary ruptures
• Why nervous system work can help change the world
