Nourished Perspectives
Nourished Perspectives is a mental health blog written by Nourish Carolina Counseling therapists. We hope to offer insight, education, reflection and support related to a variety of mental health themes, all in one centralized location on our website. We will offer guided practices for managing the nervous system, community resources and invite self-evaluation from a holistic, whole person integrative lens.
The Art of Embodied Self-Reflection
Integrated self-reflection is not just an intellectual exercise—it's a somatic, embodied experience. By tuning in to your body’s wisdom and listening, you gain new levels of clarity about how to safely and joyously engage with yourself and the world. We hold space for the idea that your body is your home, your birthright and your most trusted, loving friend. We present foundational practices and questions for you to engage deeper in this relationship with yourself. We offer these as an entry point for ongoing exploration of what makes you feel most vibrant and alive according to your body.
