After reading tons of self-help books and taking different classes, it is refreshing to discover and experience a platform like Embody Me.

My Experiences With Embody Me
Now that you are aware of its different features, I’d like to share my experiences with some of the classes I followed on Embody Me!
Somatic Experience For Receiving
I followed this class on a beautiful Thursday evening when the sun was shining. When I entered the class, I was not sure what to experience. I simply knew that this practice is very good for PTSD survivors, so I chose to give it a shot!
Once I entered the Zoom class, instructor Nela welcomed me and the other member participating with a warm smile and kind words. I immediately felt welcome and safe. After a short introduction, it became more clear what we’d do: A somatic experience means to move intuitively and visualizing how we feel on the inside through movement.
As this class was about experiencing what it feels like to receive, we’d visualize how it feels to give and to receive. It was a very personal and emotional class for me, as I was able to express on the outside how I felt on the inside.
At some point, I even felt like I reconnected with my inner child, which was incredibly transforming. Therefore, this practice was amazing for me to reconnect with my feminine side and the flow of my own body.
The warm and comforting character of instructor Nela created a safe space for this wonderful experience and I can highly recommend you to give it a try as well!
Stillness Meditation
After having such a great first experience with Nela, I chose to give another class of hers a try as well. This time, I chose to participate in a stillness meditation. I was somewhat stressed after a long day of work, so I hoped that this meditation would help me to feel relief.
We began the practice with a few deep breaths in and out. After doing so, Nela guided me through the meditation, helping me to ground my energy properly.
Nela’s calm voice, the music and the energy helped me to begin my evening with a calm energy and let go of all the stress I carried around.
In fact, I found this meditation more relaxing than a power nap, showing how effective this practice is! If you are looking for a great meditation class, I highly recommend you to attend meditation classes on Embody Me!
Vinyasa Flow
While I loved the calm practices, I also wanted to try some more intensive classes on Embody Me as well. Therefore, I signed up for Nela’s ‘Vinyasa Flow’ class, which was a short 30-minute yoga session.
The practice began peacefully with gentle movements and gradually became more difficult. When I began the practice, I felt great tension in my back muscles and shoulders. However, after doing this practice, I slowly felt how the tension became less. This shows how good it is to practice yoga regularly!
For beginners, this practice is a great place to start, as it is a gentle form of yoga that introduces you to the basic positions. Besides Vinyasa Flow Yoga, Embody Me also hosts classes such as Yin Yoga and Kundalini Yoga.
Face Yoga For Reducing Wrinkles
Finally, I tried face yoga. I’ve been dying to try this for a long time, so I was so happy to discover that Embody Me offers it on their platform! I followed the face yoga class from Prema Gaia.
With a gentle face oil, I massaged my face and the different areas of it to reduce wrinkles. It was incredibly relaxing for my face and at times super funny: you’ll make a lot of funny faces and movements with your face!
After doing face yoga on Embody Me, I felt super relaxed and my face felt incredibly smooth. I highly recommend you to give it a try.
