Embodiment - what is that?

...How am I creating this right now? My sensations and perceptions and their physical expression: The tensions, relaxations, nerve signals and thus generated thoughts in my body. My movement patterns, facial expressions, voice and postures, and therefore my own effect on the resonances, what comes to me from outside in life (“responds”) and what I thereby also bring into my life(!). The whole thing is always shaped by family and culture, by living spaces, city, country, workplace, my relationships, by climate zones or vacation times...

Embodiment. In German, best understood as somatics, bodymind, psychosomatics. 
It is easier to understand in terms of the differenciation according to the book “The Body in Coaching and Training” by Mark Walsh, or Daniela Welzel via YouTube: 

  • BODY CONSCIOUSNESS primarily encompasses knowledge of bio-mechanical functions and physiology. In sport and also modern adaptations of martial arts or yoga as fitness, e.g. for building up muscles and flexibility.


  • ATTENTION is the ability to be aware of the body and its processes and movements. E.g. in yoga, conscious movement, conscious dance, the drawing of thoughts, postures in breathing, primarily as an opportunity for corrections and improvements.


  • EMBODIMENT means understanding the entirety of physicality as part of the personality and therefore also active personality development. The given opportunity and ability to develop further.

In coaching as process-oriented support in a package or in thematic single sessions.

From the inside out. Consciously.

Curious about how it can work? Communicate and embody yourself and your concerns differently so that you become more aware of them, recognize your patterns and can shape them more easily? And so that, for example, others can really perceive you the way you mean it (unravel this “yes”...).

Out of the “stories” into the body:
In embodiment coaching, we explore your issue(s) through body awareness, the “felt sense”, your actual “brain”. On a body-centered and psychosomatic level.

So above all through:

  • Exercises in postures and movements to lead you into direct and different experiences
  • Impulses and spontaneous sensing, learning to “listen”
  • Observation, mirroring, interaction, simulations and sensing reflections


Depending on your needs, there are also, for example 

  • Journaling/reflection diary
  • Home practice and 
  • “micro-practices” that can be integrated unobtrusively into everyday life.


Yes, you will probably soon take something with you that will help you develop in your everyday life and experience different results!
