Unmasking In Real Life. How Do Breathwork, Somatics, And Mindful Presence Help You Live From Your Core. Alicia Zielinski Straub
Manage episode 520242718 series 3661736
On Inner Peace Better Health, we get tactical about “unmasking”. Licensed Professional Counselor, meditation guide, and retreat host Alicia Zielinski Straub breaks down how over-efforting shows up in the body, why somatics plus breathwork reset the autonomic nervous system, and how to move from fear driven rigidity to grounded decision making. We translate neuroscience into daily habits that actually stick. If you’ve been confusing productivity for peace, this one’s a pattern interrupt.
About the guest:Alicia Zielinski Straub is a Licensed Professional Counselor, meditation guide, and retreat host. She integrates mindfulness, somatics, and evidence-informed breath practices to help clients reconnect to their truest essence and make values-aligned choices in real life.
Key takeaways:Unmasking starts by noticing performance patterns. over-achieving, pushing through pain, pretending things are fine. then asking what fear that pattern protects
Somatic cues reveal the hidden story. watch posture, tension, breath holds, and contraction. the body flags shame and anxiety faster than the mind admits
Breath is the regulator. a steady inhalation and exhalation downshifts heart rate and blood pressure. it reengages the prefrontal cortex and exits fight, flight, or freeze
Mindfulness is experiential. consistency beats intensity. micro practices for a few minutes daily rewire a calmer baseline and reduce reactivity
Discomfort is data. stay with sensations for ~90 seconds without spinning a story. most emotional waves pass if you breathe and witness
Outcome obsession is a mask. widen perspective beyond narrow limbic focus. presence with the process unlocks better options than rigid plans
Living from your core feels quiet and rooted. less defending or personalizing. more clarity, balanced choices, and durable peace
Practical stack. name the sensation, lengthen the exhale, orient through five senses, then act from values not urgency
