How Disembodiment Is Keeping You Dysregulated (and Out of Alignment)

In this week’s episode of Blessed + Bossed Up, we continue our Internal Harmony Series with Part 2 — unpacking the psychological factor of disembodiment. This is when we operate from our heads while ignoring our body’s signals, emotions, and even the Holy Spirit’s nudges. It’s been one of my biggest personal battles, and I’m sharing both biblical truth and practical tools to help you recognize and overcome it.

You’ll learn:

Key Takeaways

• Why harmony is more sustainable than balance in life and business
• The difference between external harmony (systems, productivity) and internal harmony (peace, alignment, presence)
• How disembodiment looks in daily life: ignoring hunger, pushing through pain, numbing emotions, and being physically present but mentally absent
• How it shows up in business: over-functioning, leading from performance instead of presence, disconnected identity, and neglecting Spirit-led decision making
• Root causes backed by research — including trauma, perfectionism, performance-based childhoods, church culture, and over-reliance on logic
• Generational breakdown of how Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z experience disembodiment differently
• What the Bible shows us about embodiment through the life of Jesus: feeling emotions (John 11:35), resting even in storms (Mark 4:38), and being present enough to sense spiritual exchange (Luke 8:45–46)

Practical Steps to Reconnect:

• Address the root cause — through therapy, prayer, fasting, and surrender to God
• Body scans — regularly pause to check in with how you feel physically and emotionally
• Schedule pauses & stillness — add intentional breaks to slow down and be present
• Involve your support system — ask heart questions, not just head questions, and invite accountability
• Replace old habits — build patterns that align with your identity in Christ instead of survival mode

If you’ve ever felt productive on the outside but disconnected on the inside, this episode will help you:

-Recognize the signs of disembodiment

– Identify your personal root causes

-Begin practical and spiritual steps toward true embodiment that honors God, fosters peace, and strengthens your leadership in life and business
