We hold onto things …. “Just let it go,” they say. Easier said than done. I’ve been learning for the past 15 years how to use our bodies to release held trauma. I incorporate these methods into my therapy practice and into the yoga “Mind-Body” classes I teach. You might be surprised to learn that the body holds onto things even after the mind thinks it has let it go. Many people also minimize or justify their traumas - “it wasn’t that bad” …. We try to rationalize or bury those moments that caused us to freeze, fight or flee as normal or just a part of life…. But the body isn’t as forgiving or forgetful. What are you holding on to?
