The word Somatic is used a lot these days. Really it means Body. The type of work I do is working with the whole person and specifically the trauma held in the tissues. I find most trauma comes in the form of the freeze state, which can leave us numbed out, dissociated and disconnected from our bodies. We then feel either anxious or depressed and may have a difficult time finding regulation in our nervous system. This can then lead to not sleeping, gut issues, pain in the body, addiction, troubles in relationships and relating, watching too much on Netflix or other forms of media, and so many other symptoms.
My belief is to work with the root cause and that often is something we believe about ourselves and the world. How we perceive our reality and also trauma within generations.
I also believe that if we can do this work for ourselves )meaning To do the deeper digging, which can be very dark for some) means really facing yourself! And when we start to tell ourselves the truth and work through layer by layer all that does not serve to be true we then begin to awaken. And only then... We do this work not just for ourselves. We do it for the world, the earth, the collective. This is how we heal the earth!
