At Embodiment with Sarah I help women to develop unshakeable self trust and confidence by getting out of their heads and into their bodies. When we try to build our confidence most of us focus on what’s going on in our minds, but let’s face it, the thing that really stops you from getting on the stage, asking the person out or telling someone about your business is that icky, churning feeling in your stomach that just feels unbearable. Your natural confidence lives on the other side of all the unpleasant sensations that no one ever taught you how to feel. By working with the body we take the power back from your emotions, so that they no longer stand in the way of you doing what you want to do in the world, and instead we turn them into the fuel that propels you forward.

When it comes to building self trust and confidence, most people focus on mindset. We’re told to “fix our thoughts” and “fake it til you make it”. This can work in the short term, but it can also drain our energy and makes life feel like a performance. My embodiment coaching takes a different approach – I believe that in our most natural state we deeply trust ourselves and have access to all the confidence we need to do anything we want to in life. When we get out of our heads and into our bodies we start to learn that all the complicated emotions that appear to be standing in our way, actually hold the answers that we have been searching for the whole time. The more we relax into ourselves, the more our natural state can shine through – and your innate confidence begins to lead the way. This is the where our deepest transformation lies.
