Somatic Experiencing
Connect with Your Body Through Somatic Experiencing
Our bodies have an incredible ability to store memories, emotions, and stress. Somatic Experiencing is a powerful technique that can help you reconnect with your body, release stored tension, and address unresolved trauma. By tuning into your body's sensations and responses, you can foster a deeper sense of self-awareness and promote healing from within.
What is Somatic Experiencing?
Somatic Experiencing is a body-oriented approach to healing trauma developed by Dr. Peter A. Levine. It focuses on the way in which the body holds onto traumatic experiences and aims to release this trapped energy through gentle exercises, mindfulness, and body awareness techniques.
How Does it Work?
During a Somatic Experiencing session, a trained practitioner will guide you through various exercises designed to help you reconnect with your body's sensations. By paying attention to physical cues such as muscle tension, breathing patterns, and heart rate, you can begin to unravel the stored trauma in a safe and controlled manner.
Through this process, you can learn to regulate your nervous system, build resilience to stress, and cultivate a greater sense of presence and well-being.
