Power Boundaries: A Stealth Somatic Trick to Block Bad Vibes

Hi beautiful people!

Here’s the third trick in my Stealth Somatic Skills series. These are short, subtle nervous system tools you can use anytime and anywhere, without anyone knowing.

Today’s practice is called “Power Boundaries.” It’s designed for people who struggle with feeling drained, invaded, or off-balance around others. Whether you’re in conflict, overwhelmed by someone else’s energy, or just need a reset, this simple practice helps you reclaim your space and feel your agency again.

We’ll start with a more expressive (macro) version using movement and voice to anchor the skill in your body. Then I’ll guide you through a quieter, internal version you can use anytime. No one has to know you’re doing it.

Your body can create clear boundaries without shutting down or pushing people away.

*I learned and adapted this skill from Somatic Experiencing® boundary exercises.
