About this episode

Damian Appleby introduces somatic affirmations as a practice to help the nervous system recognize abundance through felt experiences rather than just thoughts.

→ Start to transform your nervous system regulation Most affirmations don't work — not because you're doing it wrong, but because they never reach your nervous system. In this episode of The Abundance Frequency, Damian Appleby introduces somatic affirmations — a body-based practice that teaches your nervous system to recognise abundance as a felt reality, not just a thought. You'll discover why speaking affirmations from the mind creates resistance, and how to anchor them in present-moment sensation instead. Using a simple guided somatic practice, you'll find a micro-moment of abundance that already exists in your body — right now — and use it as a living foundation for your affirmations. This is somatic healing for abundance: working from the ground up, through the biology of the nervous system — not from the top down through willpower and repetition. What you'll experience in this episode: — Why standard affirmations bypass the nervous system — A guided practice to find the felt sense of abundance already present in you — How to speak your affirmation from inside the frequency — not toward it — The difference between a somatic affirmation and an ordinary one 🌿 Ready to go…
