Somatic feminism is a perspective that emphasizes the connection between the body and the self, and views the body as a site of both oppression and resistance. This perspective draws on somatic and body-based practices, such as mindfulness, movement, and touch, as a means of exploring and challenging the ways in which patriarchal culture has oppressed and disempowered women and marginalized bodies.

Somatic feminists believe that the body is a source of wisdom and power that has been suppressed and ignored by dominant cultural narratives, and that reclaiming bodily experience is an important step in the journey towards greater self-awareness and liberation.

This perspective argues that patriarchal culture has created a disconnection between the mind and the body, leading to a range of physical, emotional, and psychological issues, such as eating disorders, chronic pain, and sexual trauma. By using somatic practices to heal these issues and reclaim bodily experience, somatic feminists aim to create a more holistic and empowering relationship with their bodies and with the world around them.

Somatic feminism also challenges the medicalization of the body, arguing that the medical establishment often perpetuates patriarchal attitudes and reinforces disempowerment. This perspective advocates for alternative approaches to health and wellness that prioritize embodied experience and self-awareness, and seeks to empower individuals to take control of their own physical and emotional well-being.

(pirms tam biju gūglējusi, vai tāds somatiskais feminisms vispār ir, bet nebiju neko sakarīgu atradusi, bet chatGPT visu paskaidroja... labāk nekā būtu pati to izdarījusi)

Bet nu, tu jau zini, ka viņš ticami skaidro, UN viņam ir vienalga, vai tā ir taisnība vai nē. Šis rīks bieži ļoti pārliecinoši stāsta pilnīgus buļļu sūdus, es nepaļautos :D
