Guerrera de La Luz Leadership

This is why I choose to work with BIPOC women, especially Latinas. We have been socialized to: 🗑 look outwards instead of inwards for answers 🗑 take care of and center others before ourselves 🗑 stay quiet, unless spoken to 🗑 feel grateful for what is offered This combination of messages leaves us feeling small, lonely, and insecure. This is why, through connection to our body's wisdom in somatic leadership coaching, my clients practices tools such as: 🔧 Knowing of themselves more fully through identifying precise needs 🔧 Becoming aware of emotions and naming them 🔧 Communicating clear, direct, and kind boundaries and upholding boundaries if broken 🔧 Translating a sensation or feeling into the underlying message from the body 🔧 Self-compassion In time, and in community they often feel: 🧡 Solid, grounded, more themselves 🧡 As a whole human with strengths, weaknesses, light and shadow 🧡 Supported by those they choose to invite into their world 🧡 Secure, confident, and safe 🧡 Loved by their own selves May we all hear the call to action to shift this date. #LatinaLeadership #LeanInLatinas #Somaticcoach

What does nature have to show us about ourselves? When I come in contact with the natural world, I am reminded of: 🤎 the natural rhythms and pace 🤎 the cycle of birth, growth and death 🤎 the interdependence of all things and beings 🤎 the love of a mother There are many “gates” to go within - and nature is one of them for me. I'm headed out to a camping trip today and I am feeling excited to know more of nature, more of myself. What do you find yourself feeling and sending when you place your attention on Mother Earth? #motherearthlove #naturetherapyforsoul #somaticcoach

The primal urge to expand and contract…. Single celled- organisms have 2 responses: to contract or expand. Although we have more, most can be categorized into these 2. Want to run away? End a partnership? You’re contracting. Want to reach out to a friend? Go out dancing? You’re expanding. Lean into both of these in your daily life and notice that when you follow your body’s impulse, you increase trust layer by layer - increasing safety within yourself. Practice what it feels like in your body to follow impulse at my workshops or 1:1 somatic leadership coaching.

Until fairly recently, I saw life in black and white…. Good vs bad, right vs wrong, learned vs learning. I have entered a phase in my life of spectrums and dimmers. Life is made of duality and neither is right or wrong, each situation and time requires a different “level” of each seemingly different quality. Most recently I’m working with these 3 tensions: 🤎 Directing —— yielding 🤎 Transactional —— Reciprocal 🤎 Sovereignty—— Community When working with me as a coach, you will get to define the values and qualities that are important for you to define and feel into the right level for you. Comment ‘TLM’ to have a conversation of what can look like for you. #lifeisaspectrum #dimmerswitch #dualityinharmony

Your body has your back…. We are creatures made to experience and move and experience and move (cycle of emotional and physical expression). When our bodies feel safe enough and have enough SPACE to express and process - energy is converted to physical expression back and forth. Some of the ways that your body sequences or expresses emotions are: yawning, shaking, quivering at the jaw. Healing happens all on its own. In my coaching, we work together to create the safety and space needed for your body to settle into its birthright of movement and healing. 🤎 If this resonates and you want to learn more about how your body supports you, share this post. #somatics #somaticcoach

Take a look at one client’s story - She came to coaching recognizing she was not feeling like herself. She was not sure what it was about, and recognized that support could possibly help her shift the heaviness she was feeling. She started by realizing her truth, just as it what in the moment. Then, with an intention of compassion, she started to allow the underlying reasons to that truth to surface and to open up to alternative ways of being. In time, she started to shift how she saw herself and how she moved in the world. After 6 months of coaching, in her words, she feels “I’ve come a long way in discovering what’s most important to me in my work and in my personal life and have developed skills to keep those things in focus amidst all the competing demands on my time and energy.” This is the power of getting a Coach to support you in uncovering where in out life the autopilot takes the lead instead of you consciously choosing what you want. Can you imagine what could happen in you if you say yes to support? #somaticcoach #livingtruth #whatcanhappen

My dear yoga teacher’s mantra is: ‘First see the good’ I always took this as an outward command - first, see the good in others. And, what if he is also inviting me to see the good within. Because, if I have the capacity to identify the good externally, there must be something within me that already knows the good. The good is also in myself. What if the good we see is already within? Ready for a change in how you see yourself?
