In this second class we'll look at the difference of sensations, feelings, emotions and thoughts. Logically we might know that it's safe to build the routines we desire but it turns out we can't THINK our way there. What we can do? Teach our nervous system to accurately perceive cues of safety, when we know it's safe to do so aka. validating our sensations and feelings in situations and teaching ourselves how to make embodied decisions when it's easy enough to do so.
