BODY TAPPING

embodiment
3 MINUTES

Body tapping with balled fists to bring oneself back into the body.

Exercise Instructions

Ball your hands into fists and tap your body with both hands, from head to toe. Tap solidly - it should not be painful, but it should create noticeable sensations. Increase the intensity of the taps at your discretion.

How This Somatic Exercise Works

Body tapping activates touch receptors that send calming signals to the brain, quickly reducing anxiety and stress. It also improves your mind-body connection by bringing your attention to physical sensations.

Tips For This Exercise

Start by tapping your chest with your fists, like a heart beating.

Gradually spread your tapping to all other areas of your body, focusing on how each tap feels.
