Innovation

Here are some considerations for innovative and healthy choices if you long for ease in the natural flow through all nine lifestyle areas as we collectively shift into 2026. The interplay of life areas that Inside Awareness topics focus on are education, career, community, past, health, future, wealth, fame and relationships. Each of these life areas can be explored separately or combined with other life areas for advanced learning that increases clarity and wellness. An example is the Relationships life area and the Health life area. The topics in the Health Life area include communication, food awareness and functional movement. These topics would enhance relationships. Especially learning a language that enhances empathy and compassion. The nature of the topics that focus on learning through the somatic experience creates ease through their integration. This integration leads to clarity and attainment that is balanced throughout the nine life areas.

The topics have a focus on cultivating awareness through the somatic felt senses. It is an interesting shift of inner behaviour for many who have had universally dominant socially conditioned behavioural training where one size fits all, and that has eliminated the inner connections to unique individual sensory responses. Instead of cultivating conscious awareness and guidance on how to process somatically, the scientific approach emerged with a pattern of consciously dumbing down the somatic experience through evaluative expression and definition. The mainstream has not caught up to the shift in science, where society is not being trained in how to process the somatic felt senses and lead with them This leaves a large segment of society in the dark and vulnerable.

An example of a life area with topics that can be an individual focus of attention, or combined with others, is the health life area. These include:

  • somatic functional movement integration of the inner physical, emotional, mental and conscious awareness processes
  • foods for eating plans to increase brain and gut function
  • somatic communication patterns for developing healthy inner and outer vocabulary skills

Rather than gatekeeping, the founder of Inside Awareness Center for Integrative Somatic Learning shares patterns of learning that are organic and natural at birth. Patterns that everyone is entitled to relearn without jumping through hoops, or the labels model holders give them as gatekeepers to retain ownership over them. Luckily, one living non-gatekeeper was a model who didn’t hold the pattern of learning hostage as gatekeepers do. This was Dr. Marshall Rosenberg, the author and founder of Nonviolent Communication. He didn’t present as a gatekeeper. Another non-gatekeeper from history is Siddhartha Gautama. We all know him as the Buddha. He is a man who attained enlightenment through a pattern of self-introspection and learning through his experience. Did he give himself this title? He did become a teacher as others recognized a quality that they wanted to mimic in their experiences. Did he gatekeep? The same with Jesus. Did he give himself a title? He also demonstrated qualities others wanted to mimic. Did he gatekeep his experiences? Humanity learns through mimicking. Who introduced gatekeeping to higher knowledge?

The founder of the Inside Awareness Center for Integrative Somatic Learning is a somatic empath. A growing awareness emerged through self-focused learning to better understand the qualities of a somatic empath. This growing awareness was a realization that this natural learning state was being held hostage through the isolation and categorization upheld by gatekeepers. A separation of a natural experience was being presented in a way that was creating division and separation.  

The focus of Inside Awareness Center for Integrative Somatic Learning is on practical applications for living a creative lifestyle that incorporates early learning patterns into the dominant analytical focus to balance it out and create understanding in current behaviours that is dragging society down. Society is being dragged down by a gap in conscious awareness that is limiting mental, emotional and physical intelligence.

Fire & Water Somatic Goal: Example Daily Action 1/31

Posted on November 7, 2025 | Leave a comment

Fire & Water Somatic Goal Action on 1st Day

There are 31 daily actions to participate, and explore in this integrative experience of goal setting. These goals are different than the typical pressurized canned model of making goal statements designed to push through fears to take action on outside strategies to achieve an outcome. This goal pattern has a focus on changing behaviour from the inside out, and not the outside in. The inside focus first is aligned with core values and has an essence in expanded learning and connection to conscious awareness, while the other has a focus on outside strategies to achieve influence. The focus on somatic goal setting is active mindfulness that expands the interconnectedness to spontaneous reactions to environmental stimuli at the level of the five senses, while the focus on outside strategies is a mental focus that has been the existing patterning in social conditioning that eliminated the somatic learning patterns of early learning. It combines contemplation first to identify the value needs (intention) as the core influence. The process creates a new pattern for learning behaviour that increases self-actualization with a change in process inner behaviour with patterns connecting the meanings of the words inspiring reactions, responses and motivation. Its focus is from the inside, with growing confidence based on increasing personal worth and self-value instead of outside strategies for personal gain with a false bravado. Somatic goals can inspire an increase in self-value that leads to a felt expression of abundance that is embodied, while the old pattern of goals develops a type of confidence that has a limited viewpoint and is dependent on strategies to generate confidence. This limited viewpoint is usually on wealth and fame, which are only two life areas. One embodies function, and the other fragments it.  

Somatic Goal Setting Daily Action Example

Example of a doable daily action for integrating balance through inner and outer actions in the environment using intention that includes a focus on defining core values and becoming comfortable with feelings.

Somatic Goal Setting Programs – Fire and Water

Fundraiser for building a Culture of Values through educational components and integrating them into educational institutions and organizations.

Remember, a Culture of Values from this perspective is not a religion. It is a model of integrative learning to enhance organized learning in institutions, organizations, parenting and childcare. It is not exclusive to one demographic. Rather is designed for all functioning people of all ages.

This first workshop for the Inside Awareness Center for Somatic Learning will be a fundraiser for building the Culture of Values educational programming to bring focus to the needs for maintaining the early learning patterns and partnering them with the current system that is oriented from the perspectives of adults contained within an institutionalized system. These early learning patterns here are not the typical strategies from an adult perspective of coming up with strategies to implement into a system. It is the actual patterns of integration for developing the inner processing capabilities for a child to develop into a healthy functioning adult in society. Education currently has a focus on memorization, solving puzzles with strategies and debate conversation entrainment. These educational programs will introduce the needs of the students who have retained their dominant sensory input as a form of viewing and processing incoming worldly information, and will strive to balance out those who are dominant analytical thinkers. These learning patterns will focus on developing a healthy inner and outer understanding of behavioural relationships between the elusive inner body responses in functional responses to any stimuli. This will be through transparent guided patterns designed in the same model of early learning in babies who have no input from adults intellectually in learning how to roll over, sit, stand, walk and talk. These abilities are inherent and not transmitted through an adult’s outside influence. These programs will integrate seamlessly into existing programs designed to increase recognition of inner responses for the ability to self-monitor and process reactions. This model has been initiated by a somatic empath who has recognized a gap in social conditioning while in a journey of self-discovery to find clarity and learn how to navigate in a world that has been educated to project outward from a dominant thinking behaviour, instead of having increased clarity and understanding of their inner process for creating healthy habits for good relationships and lifestyles later on. The intent for the educational patterns will be to create a healthier relationship and lifestyles that have less conflict and increased shared values.

Participation & Contribution

Renee Lindstrom, Founder of Inside Awareness Center for Integrative Somatic Learning, is seeking business partners, sponsors and those interested in supporting a model of education that will redefine behaviour through clarity, understanding that retraining the brain along with the subtle inner body responses that are one. At some point in history, the body systems became isolated and separated in people’s minds. The compartmentalization has fractured full function and understanding of the inter-relationships between felt senses, physical transitions, emotional responses, and finally the inner process for creating thoughts. For those who would be inspired to join this project, please express your interest and how or what you would like to contribute. Email is the best form of connection due to personal obligations to long periods of time with the phone turned off.

Announcement for 2026

Posted on October 17, 2025 | Leave a comment

Center for Inside Awareness Channel on YouTube

I sent this news out to my students today.

I wanted to share some updates with you that I may not have brought up outside of our focused integrations sessions, whether in movement, communication/relationships or spatial awareness and placements.  For the past ten to 15 years years I have been integrating the interplay between these areas with a deeper focus on habitual or automatic behaviours and choices.  For the past two year’s this has shifted to writing it out in an organized way.  Beginning with the Learning Center Topics, starting with separating the nine life areas with an eye on behaviour and interactions.  There are somatic programs in each of these nine life areas to support the topic they are categorized under. Many of you may have participated in.

In 2026,  I will be launching a new system of interactive patterns in expressive communication where this separation of life areas will be a core focal point in the model.  These practical and actional patterns support an authentic somatic and empathic perspective.  As written by an actual somatic empath living within their interactive experiences 24/7.  Trust me, somatic and empathic expression in behaviour is not based upon the outside strategies of someone trying to describe them.  It is one of the influences towards developing a somatic learning system that goes beyond what is being described in current social conditioning trends. 

A companion book titled  ‘Somatic Archetypes’ will be available.  This will be a foundation pattern to support a practical reference to core reactive responses.  Practical in that they will focus on actionable somatic understanding and not have any focus on evaluative expressions or right or wrong thinking.  The intention is to marry this understanding in active interactions in the moment.  The shift includes somatic engagement, versus old thinking patterns of social conditioning that shifted focus away from it in organized institutionalized education.

A new understanding of social conditioning has emerged with a powerful influence to cut through a term I learned in meditation, spiritual materialism. This is a result of the practices of functional integration and mentoring in how to speak authentically and with integrity that began in 2002. Spiritual materialism is an evaluative expression for the ego self-image.  In Feldenkrais, there is an understanding of an inner felt self-image that supports a new defining inner experience of it that isn’t built up through socially conditioned learned reactions that are focused on materialism through strategies.  Rather, it has a focus on being present from within and sensing from the inside first before outward actions of functional movement or spoken words. This means leading through the felt senses consciously to replace leading through thinking.   

Renee Lindstrom @somaticlifestyleinnovator Channel on YouTube

To support this upcoming launch, I have put my YouTube playlists in order. I have three channels. One has playlists to support the topics of the Inside Awareness Center for Integrative Somatic Learning. (Pictured above).  This includes the nine life areas broken into separate playlists. ie. Feldenkrais is in the Health Center. It is joined by Communication and Eating Plans. In these playlists, you will see early attempts to engage people to shift their focus of attention. For example, the #yyj Nature Walks, which is under the playlist of knowledge. There is also the Culture of Value program for early childhood development in that playlist that demonstrates the first stages of its development. The other channel is in my name, and it is for somatic innovation. The focus was to connect to the environmental triggers that stimulate types of behaviour to educate. 

Podcast

Finally, the third just started this past summer and fall, is my podcast.  Currently, it is voice audios of articles I have written to lay a foundation.  It will evolve and expand to include lives and interviews.  

As a dominant somatic empathic learner myself, I have first-hand experience in the alienation of children and adults with these learning styles. There is very little consideration given to the value of these learning styles and in fact, they are categorized, labelled and diagnosed as conditions, with an aim to drug and eradicate the differences they display to the expectation in the tightly defined patterns of Institutionalized education. Patterns that were designed for learning concepts with ease and little variance in the organized structure. This cognitive focus included debate-style communication development that lacked empathy training. In this context, empathy training is the skill development for good listening patterns where the core inner response is an interactive, flexible, and open-minded process, versus the closed-mindedness that results from judging the context of what is being heard as right and wrong based upon personal judgment and understanding.  

The programs at the Inside Awareness Center for Integrative Somatic Learning are focused on a mindfulness that balances both sets of needs of the cognitive style interpretation, and the somatic and empathic. It harnesses all components through functional integration of the physical body working in partnership with the emotional responses that generate the filter for thinking.

The intention for these YouTube platforms is to build an audience and to develop financial opportunities that will support this focus on somatic education.. Until now, I have funded it with my time and energy. I look forward to taking it to the next level. I am hoping you will consider viewing my channels, liking and subscribing to help build this lofty goal. If the content appeals to you, I hope you will share it to support getting a buzz going on these topics.

The following are the links to the YouTube channels. Please keep in mind, these are early developments that have been a learning process and for the process to grow a level of comfort and ease in being on stage. The last link is to a page on the Inside Awareness Center for Integrative Somatic learning explaining the nine life areas that are the core foundation in my perspective of functional integration, somatic dialogue and spatial awareness.

The Original Somatic Archetypes

Posted on September 10, 2025 | Leave a comment

by Renee Lindstrom, Author of The Original Somatic Arcetypes

Companion Audio to article for listening and reading, or to listen

I introduced the concept of Somatic Archetypes in a pattern for setting goals in 2026 in a post this past week. As a somatic Practitioner, Mentor, and Educator, I have discovered these archetypes are the original ones and at the core of each individual’s perception and expression. An example is how each individual will set their goals. It will be through a different medium unless they are in a closed situation where there is only one choice.

I am suggesting that there is no one way forward for all people that is the exact same in life due to these differences. I have also discovered there is an expectation that all people are the same, or should be identical, without any intelligent conceptual understanding that there are differences among two or more people. This, my readers or listeners, is what I believe is at the core of most conflicts. This lack of understanding generates a lack of empathetic listening to others. It comes across as arrogance. Usually, arrogance is someone who engages with others with some form of false authority that has the attitude of power over which lacks the intelligence to understand that this inner mental conditioning is their sickness. It’s not entitled behaviour that gives someone a higher IQ or status. Yet, somewhere in their social development, these seeds were planted in their physiology. Usually, when generational, it is held together with ego and pride behind walls of secrecy and not wanting to be seen.

After years of engaging with individuals or groups in personal and social development sessions, I have begun to say quietly and with a strength that comes from this conditioning as a mentor, “You are not the Judge and jury. You do not have the credentials to go along with your statements.” I may switch it out and say title instead of credentials. This authoritarian way of expressing is conditioned in our Western Cultures through generational socialization skill development. It is habitual and unconscious. There can be retraining yet that needs its own form of social conditioning that requires recognition and acknowledgement. As a Somatic Practitioner, mentor and educator, I begin with learning the dominant sense a person uses to perceive. These would be through the five senses we are all born with and used to get up and walk, talk, think and generally function in our society. These are sight, sound, smell, touch and taste. These are the fantastic five core archetypes. Not labels or cute names, foundational attributes each of us needed to integrate functions. They are the forgotten ones!

These archetypes are at the core of intention and stimulate motivation. It’s an inside job in the moment that can be spontaneous due to our free will. It is the generational influences that restrict and shape our decisions. This generational behaviour that has been passed down can be transmuted into the here and now for making better and more logical choices that would be for the highest good of the individual and those surrounding them, yet this ability is rare. This suggests retraining the brain while adopting new patterns in our system that is shaping our generational experiences through social conditioning that is shaping our cultural conditioning.

Community Bullying 101

Posted on September 8, 2025 | Leave a comment

Power over dynamics

As a mature woman, in a casual work and connected home environment, I found myself in an experience of being bullied by another mature business woman in a group of women that ranged in age from young with small children themselves, to those older than them. These women’s behaviour repeated the same patterns that small children demonstrate at the toddler stage when parents and early childhood educators are tasked with modelling how to navigate their triggers to process their reactive feelings and resolve them within themselves before lashing out and harming others. These mothers and grandmothers did not demonstrate the skills or ability to slow down their emotional escalation before focusing on resolving issues that led up to their reactions. It suggests that they had not integrated these skill sets themselves. Keep in mind that these were mothers, grandmothers and aunties of children who were the core educators modelling learned behaviours within their family and community units.

Let me introduce myself

My name is Renee Lindstrom, and I have been focused on educational programs for bullying since arriving in Victoria 35 years ago. This focus of attention has been from a somatic empathic perspective and not at the typical vantage point of strategies and analysis of the behaviours. This suggests the focus has been on the practical steps of integration at the core internalized behavioural level.

The two options:

  • Labelling the behaviours and speaking about them to create strategies with no inner accountability
  • Slowing down the emotional reaction on the inside first to identify the internal stimulus and connect to the causation of the trigger before responding (taking accountability)

More about these two options

These two bullet points suggest that one pattern has a focus of analysis while still in a triggered reactive state. This suggests attention is aimed outward at others without any self-connection first. This suggests it is a position of denial and lacks any personal responsibility. This leads to a projection that lacks logic and empathy in the responses.

The other option begins with an inside focus for checking into oneself first to connect to the internal source of the trigger to calm reactions down before connecting to outside solutions. This option contains self-empathy first to connect to the source of the trigger response before any outside actions are taken. This increases the potential for balanced fairness and equal opportunity in the outcomes.

Back to the introduction of Renee Lindstrom

The first educational choices for navigating experiential learning techniques for deeper clarity and understanding from a somatic empathic viewpoint came through movement and meditation. The mediation I engaged in opened an opportunity to study Feng Shui that aligned with the core syllabus of the meditation practice I was integrating. This led to an intensive dive into Nonviolent Communication guided patterns created by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg, Phd, and author of Nonviolent Communication.

My focus on teaching NVC began in 2007 after 7 years of personal study and integration with a focus on the areas of bullying and relationships. I taught, presented and organized events actively in our Greater Victoria Communities in Juan de Fuca, James Bay, Oak Bay, Greater Victoria, and Saanich. It included the focus of primary couple relationships, families, parenting, peers in the workplace and primary education.

Back to the experience

No Remuneration for time and effort where other employee/s were paid for

While this experience that will be described is one in a sea of many, it is a definable one that shifted my patterns of response and continues to demonstrate to me the value in the training patterns I create through my practice and personal studies. It has also been an event where I never received remuneration for my time, yet someone received payment for it, even though it was the time and effort I put in. This, together with my mail being opened without my permission, and a lack of meeting my request to have it forwarded to me, plus some other incidents, I share this event in my life for training purposes. I, like the universe. do not like the lack of energetic reciprocity. This is one way of meeting my needs and balancing this out energetically while sharing it as educational materials. It is paying it forward to others in a positive way.

Being Nudged By Spirit to use this as a pattern to create a model

I believe I am being nudged by spirit or the dream state to share the patterns of how I handled this experience on site and after, as it was either detached or a state of detaching from ego, status and fear. It demonstrated fearlessness and the growth of a higher state of self-confidence and empowerment. A state that bypasses the fight, flight, freeze or fonding states with conscious awareness. Even though I kept telling myself that I had already learned these lessons and questioned how I found myself in this placement now, in hindsight, it was exactly what I needed to go through and be able to integrate into the focus of attention I have held for the past 30 years.

Why? Working with others now, what took 30 years is transitioning in mere hours or days is now happening for others who have gone beyond looking for outside strategies to change, and have shifted into longing for change. When that choice is made, there is less effort in transforming obstacles, and it seems that they fall away with more ease.

Upcoming post points will focus on these types of issues from this experience and will include practical steps to hold both sides equally from a leadership perspective and support each side involved to get their needs met, instead of only one side, due to the leadership going into sympathy versus empathy. This will be an integrative pattern to transform these types of bullying behaviour for your home, office and institution

An example of what you can expect to read about:

  • Home/Business Environment
  • Observations and Pitfalls of institutionalized expectations of employees in a home environment for one person
  • Employees who lacked typical dedication and devotion to their scheduled hours, and their possible contributions to this (from a professional with a background in hotel and hospitality)
  • Bullying incidents
  • Getting Resident outside after being housebound for over two years and only going out to go to Doctor appts
  • Patterns I used to encourage going outdoors with ease and motivation
    • Response of employees hearing about this, and aggressive responses
    • Response of a family member upon hearing this achievement
  • The use of inappropriately timed texting that instigated conflict and aggression
  • No regular eating schedule and missing meals daily basis
  • Lack of routine and schedule, and wellness shift with changes by creating regular daily patterns
  • Harmful Gossip that crossed between family and employees, no boundaries
  • Food Cost concerns by Office Admin that resulted in hostile behaviours, confusion and lack of food for resident:
    • The concern led to insufficient groceries in the home where I began feeding the resident my food daily
    • This concern led to repeated surveillance of me eating my own food by casual employees who wouldn’t know whose food was whose
    • My food was even used to make a meal for a family member by employees responsible for ordering food – there was a lack of consistent food supply
  • Business Partner/Friend who led a meeting to find out my concerns that led to employees changing all the points shared in the next days before our next meeting for resolution
  • Business Partner/Friends open hostility in a Professional Meeting
  • Sabatosh ofreputation in the community after being a whistleblower
  • Business Leader sabatoshing reputation with false accusations in the local community

Before exiting the property, I made some suggestions for the employee to implement. Some of these ideas were shared with a family member and business partner. I will do a detailed list of these points and recommendations and give an explanation of what inspired them. I believe they will be useful for other families who have employees working in a home with institutionalized training. I have successfully created other structured plans for families in need of this service in the local community. They are doable and work well.

Be the Master Creator of your 2026 experience

Posted on September 5, 2025 | Leave a comment

The energies of 2026 will influence career, and the focus is on new beginnings at the core level. I suggest it will not be superficial rather connected to your root values. This is the year to definitely begin planning if you are not in the habit of it.

Turning intentions into doable goals in 5 easy, integrative steps

These are 5 fun and easy steps to activating the integration of intention and action in a meaningful way using a novel pattern to stimulate right and left brain functions with activities that can create life-enriching experiences and relationships.   Each step can be life-changing and integrative. Commit to spending time on each step before moving to the next one. 

STEP – THE FOUNDATION

Book time with yourself to focus your attention on your creative nature.  This step can be a private experience, shared with a friend group, or spent privately with a mentor. It can take up to two hours to lay out the image. Additional time to gather materials beforehand will be needed. 

  • This initial step will be stimulating. 
  • Let it digest for a minimum of three days before moving to step two.

What is stopping you from moving to a life of more joy?

Check out the archetypes below and find out what dominant pattern is yours

The thinker

The Thinker

  • If you hesitate, or if you believe you are not creative, go beyond this thought and gather together some magazines, glue, scissors and some paper and begin creating. Your thoughts are your learned behaviour from years of conditioning.
  • Create a collage mixing pictures and words that speak to you.
  • If you cannot devote this time, pause and make a commitment and do it anyway.  This is as important as eating, sleeping, and socializing. Perhaps even more important is the point of clarity and balance in our natures.  It is invaluable learning and guidance that comes from within.
Create with abandon

The artist

The Visionary

  • Gather the medium you wish to create with: such as water colours, oil, charcoal, etc.
  • Create a vision of your dreams
Create with abandon

The musician

The Musician

  • Gather music sheets, pencil/pen or instrument.
  • Create music for your dreams
  • Write a song reflecting your deepest desire for 2026.
Create with abandon

The physical

The Somatic Touch

  • Gather pen & paper and locate a place in nature that you can walk ALONE under and surrounded by trees.
    • Let this forest bath of smells, sounds & movement calm and slow down to connect to your inner desires for the coming year
    • Listening inside is a place one can go in nature easily when slowing down to create the space for it. Listening from inside can give you your best guidance.  Use this time to become quiet and let your inner desires be heard.  Remember to make notes afterwards so this experience isn’t fleeting.

Finding out your archetype is the first step towards knowing and understanding your inner behaviour preferences and habits. Some of us will be thinkers, and our first response will be thought. We’ll speak from our memory, while others will be visionaries and their expression will be through images and creating picture stories. Some of us will be listeners, and we’ll hear the music. As we observe and consider our goals for 2026. While others of us will be physical and we will choose nature dance, exercise or running as a way to connect. Each of us is uniquely different in our makeup. So take a moment and do this pattern I’ve suggested, and that is guided to find out your archetype. This is the first step to creating a connected future that is connected from the inside out, versus being stimulated by the outside world and trends. Take time to enjoy the process. Breathe, and enjoy the process.

Create with abandon
