What does it truly mean to take responsibility—and how does that lead to real freedom?
In this profound and heart-centered conversation, we’re joined by Russell Delman, founder of The Embodied Life, to explore how cultivating presence and taking ownership of our internal state can become the foundation for deep healing, self-acceptance, and spiritual evolution.
Drawing from over 45 years of experience in somatic awareness, Zen meditation, Gestalt therapy, and the Feldenkrais Method, Russell shares how embodiment can reconnect us to wholeness - not as a concept, but as a lived experience. He reflects on the emotional layers of sensation and story, the power of relational presence, and how we can learn to navigate life from a more grounded, aware, and compassionate space.
We discuss:
- Taking responsibility as a gateway to personal freedom
- How embodiment supports healing and spiritual development
- Moshé Feldenkrais’s incredible life story - from Judo to neuroscience
- The cultural roots of self-rejection and how to unlearn them
- How sensation and story shape emotional awareness
- The art of authentic communication in a disconnected world
Russell also opens up about his long-time partnership with his wife Linda, co-developer of The Embodied Life, and their shared journey as teachers, parents, and seekers.
