Being able to say “no” to your child, yourself, or your partner without fearing disconnection, self-judgment, or resentment takes practice.
Most people have negative associations with the word no, but it can be liberating, especially when it’s embodied. Often, people believe that no has to be said aggressively to be heard. That is when it is disembodied.
An embodied no means your words, energy, and physicality are congruent and come across as very clear.
When you say “no,” do you feel guilty or have the impulse to apologize?
Every day is a set of challenges and opportunities to make choices. We don’t always feel like we have a choice because choosing one thing means saying no to something else, and we may not feel 100% behind a choice.
