1. Jung said that psyche and body are one and the same. Unless we are grounded in our bodies, nothing of our psyche can manifest. See [[Quotes - Body]]
2. Our body is what allows for our unique expression in the world.
3. Tuning in and paying attention to our breath is one of the fastest ways we can know if a [[Complex]] (unconscious material) is getting activated and we can work with it.
4. We need to be able to experience a full range of emotions in order to be fully alive. Emotions are always embodied as physical sensations/feelings within our bodies. See [[The Difference Between Feeling and Emotion]] When we can catch an emotion, such as [[anger]], at the stage of feeling, we don’t need to act it out and we’ll have access to energy that can be directed toward our [[Instincts]].
