S11E8 - AI Self-Coaching? & Will Coaches Be Replaced?
School of Embodied Arts Podcast with Jenna Ward
Will AI replace coaches? And how can we use AI to self coach us through everyday challenges? Lately a dear friend of mine, also an embodiment practitioner, & I have been joking about “AI Therapy”. We’ve had a few tricky situations, and have turned to chat GPT to channel advice in the tone of some of our favorite authors, mentors and coaches. It’s been illuminating, funny, and sometimes insightful. It’s gotten me thinking about the role of AI in replacing coaches. It’s also opened up some ideas about how we can use AI for self coaching… Today on...

S11E6 - Embodied Parenting: Part 2
School of Embodied Arts Podcast with Jenna Ward
Catch Part 1 of this 2-part series . Raising kids the embodied way is an experiment I’m in the midst of. I have a 5 year and 8 month old who are both stubborn, intelligent, creative, brilliant kids. I’m constantly exploring how I can employ emotionally intelligent values in the way I parent. To be clear, this isn’t my speciality, or body of work. I’m a somatic educator & coach, but parenting isn’t my zone of mastery. Today’s podcast came about from a listener's request and it’s something I’m so happy to shed some light on. Today I’m sharing...

S11E5 - Embodied Parenting: Part 1
School of Embodied Arts Podcast with Jenna Ward
How can we support our kids to be the most embodied, emotionally intelligent generation ever? I recently received a request from a podcast listener to speak about embodied mothering. I’m not an expert in this area, but as a Feminine Embodiment Coach & international founder of a somatic school of training AND parent to two little humans… I do have lots of thoughts on the topic that I’m so happy to share. Parenting isn’t my body of work. It’s not the space of genius I’m here to contribute to the world. So I haven’t analyzed my parenting in depth to give it language,...

S11E2 - What Philosophy Underpins FEC?
School of Embodied Arts Podcast with Jenna Ward
My kids are the most embodied people I know. They are effortlessly, fully, deeply IN their bodies. Feeling and EXPRESSING their inner sensations moment to moment. They remind me embodiment isn’t something we DO to the body. Somatic work isn’t about imposing or doing MORE. It is instead the process of peeling back what isn’t sincere, so we’re left with our simple, yet profound soma. This concept is a bit of a head fuck because so much modern therapy, development & personal growth is about doing or applying something TO the body. Modulating it. Hacking it for...

The more we contact the deep currents of aliveness within us, the more we can attune...

I recently invited Rani George, a practitioner steeped in both Eastern & Western spirituality, to join us for an exploration of ancestral reconnection at our The Future Is Embodied Conference. During the conversation Rani offered us an experiential practice of expanding our awareness to perceive more of our ancestors, somatically.
