Self-supression is a leash we put on ourselves limiting our voice, behaviour, and how we show up in relationships. Unchecked, it becomes repression, where we've accepted a private desperation as normal.
Experiential exercises awaken one's inner knowing through embodiment; doing the thing you know you should do. In this modern age oversaturated with media and entertainment, we easily succumb to passivity.
Being fully expressed, especially in relationships, means fully accepting yourself so others can too.
You can't think your way to your desires. Action is required. Some desires are a way of being: loving, assertive, vulnerable, expressive, etc.
If you can practice such presence in front of a mirror, that's experiential self-empowerment.
