Listen "IFS Yoga for Grief, Releasing Tension in Shoulders 15min Class"
Episode Synopsis
Hello! I'm. Cha Wilde, join me for a guided yoga session focused on releasing grief and tension stored in our shoulders.We'll explore various shoulder movements, stretches, and breathing exercises designed to help us connect with the parts of ourselves holding onto grief. We'll combine physical movements like shoulder rolls, squeezes, and side bends with introspective moments, listening to our bodies and any emotions that arise. Our goal is to create space for grief to surface and be witnessed, while also finding grounding and stability.

Introduction:
We'll start by focusing on the grief stored in our shoulders. Let's take a moment to connect with any parts of ourselves that want to participate. Before diving into shoulder work, let's ground ourselves by focusing on our lower bodies. Wiggle or shake to release any rigidity and take deep breaths to center ourselves.
00:03:06 -- Shoulder Movements and Squeezes
Now, let's move into a series of shoulder movements. Raise your shoulders to your ears, squeeze them back, and then slide them down your back. These movements will help wring out tension, pain, and heaviness stored in our shoulders, allowing grief to surface and be acknowledged. Hold those shoulder squeezes and focus your attention on any parts of yourself that may be present.
00:06:51 -- Side Bends and Stretches
Next, we'll do some side bends and stretches, targeting the areas around our shoulders and armpits. Lean to the side, drop your head, and stretch your neck and upper back. Breathe deeply and sink into the sensations, letting any grief or tension be felt and released.
00:11:54 -- Introspection and Closing
Let's take a moment for introspection. Listen to your body and any parts that may have shown up during our practice. Be open to what your body is trying to tell you and thank those parts for being present. We'll conclude with some shoulder circles and a final grounding exercise to close our session.
