Quote:

If you don’t work out, sleep, meditate, relax, or do whatever special things you need to do for you, you won’t be the best version of yourself. When you are not the best version of yourself, you can’t do things for others. In a way, it’s actually selfless to take great care of yourself because it allows you to be more present for your family and friends.

Summary

In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, Gina Ryan explores the concept of relaxing from the outside in to reduce stress. She delves into the ancient idea of Maya Koshas, which are subtle bodies recognized by yogis beyond just the physical form. These bodies include the food body, energy body, mind body, wisdom body, and bliss body, each layer representing different aspects of our being.


Gina discusses how through relaxation practices, we can integrate these subtle bodies, leading to healing and a deeper sense of wholeness. Starting with the outermost layer, the food body, which encompasses our physical form including muscles, bones, and organs, she emphasizes the importance of relaxing these areas systematically or through guided relaxation techniques.


Moving inward, Gina explains the energy body, where we connect with the energetic essence of ourselves and others. By focusing on breath and releasing tension, we can experience a sense of freedom and connection to a greater source beyond our physical selves.


Next, Gina explores the mind body, where thoughts, feelings, and sensations reside. By observing our thoughts without judgment and using breath to relax the mind, we can gain a deeper understanding of our emotional landscape and improve our relationship with our inner selves.


The wisdom body is where we tap into our intuition and inner wisdom, allowing us to witness our thoughts and emotions with detachment and insight. Through this process, we can access a deep sense of stillness and joy, connecting with our true nature and inner healer.
