BREATHING IS ALWAYS "AT HAND"
For your nervous system regulation, you can also use any other breathing pattern where the exhale is longer than the inhale.
For example if you inhale for 3 counts, then exhale for 4 or 5 or even longer if you can. This will calm your nervous system and bring you into a more regulated state.
You may also try the so-called "box breathing" pattern:
inhale for 4 counts - hold it for 4 counts - exhale for 4 counts - break for 4 counts.
You might want to imagine a box/ square too, to help you counting.
Be well.

FAQ FROM MY PRIVATE PRACTICE 2.
Question:

How does Somatic Experiencing® work online?
Does it work at all?

Answer:

Yes, it works - almost the same as personal sessions.

We set the (laptop or phone) camera up in a way that it stands stable on its own and does not have to be supported by hand or any other way.
This way the body can move freely, and if any movement (or the desire of) arises in the client during the session it can be carried out.
During a blatantly stressful event - which later turns out to be traumatic - the body often does not have time to react, because everything happens in a split second. In such cases, it may happen that the movement that the body of the person would have made or the sentence(s) the person would have said to protect itself - if there had been time – get stuck in the body, and the energy mobilised for self-protection (aka activation) gets stuck in the nervous system.

If the completion can take place - for example during an SE session - the energy (activation) stored and stuck can also be discharged from the body and will no longer cause symptoms.
In a session we typically ask repeatedly about the parts of the body we cannot see (off camera - the lower part of the body, the legs) and the sensations experienced in them, so we can follow the client even better and "surf" with them.

Surfing together is also facilitated by the atunement of the SEP in to the client, which is possible thanks to the functioning of the mirror neurons of the body; this way what is happening in the client's body may also be felt, is “mirrored” in the practitioner's own body.
In such cases we can still ask the client about their own experience and the query acts as a sort of confirmation.
Through an in-depth study of the physiology of stress and the body's innate ability to self-regulate, Somatic Experiencing® Practitioners gain unparalleled skills to compassionately support lasting healing, change, and the return of vitality in their clients' and their own lives.

FAQ FROM MY PRIVATE PRACTICE 1.
Question:

Can we work with a traumatic event, experience that I have no conscious memory of or I do not want to/ cannot talk about?

Answer:

Yes, we can - with the help of the Somatic Experiencing® modality.

In addition to speech and verbal storytelling, this method brings into play other “channels” too, so in addition to retelling what happened (which can often re-traumatise!) - or rather instead of it - we can also work making use of them.

Dr. Peter Levine, the developer of SE®, condensed these channels into the English acronym SIBAM, which covers:

S = Sensations in the body
I = Image - images, mental images
B = Behaviour. It can be anything the body would do - movement or something it would say, for example.
A = Affect, emotions
M = Meaning: how I interpret a sensation that I am currently experiencing, or how I interpret a certain event or series of events, a certain behaviour, etc..

Even if we do not have a conscious memory, mental image of the event/ events (using the SIBAM model above, the I is missing), our body and nervous system “remembers” and by inviting the other channels, the experience can be gradually reworked. The energy that was mobilised for survival or the least possible injury then and has been stuck in the body and the nervous system ever since, can be discharged.

In a similar fashion, if someone cannot or does not want to talk about a certain experience, instead of sharing the story verbally the experience can be processed with the help of the SIBAM channels and the trapped tension and activation can be gradually worked out from the body and the nervous system.

This is made possible by the fact that in connection with any life event or experience, the elements of SIBAM are present in us at the same time, they pop up in us in small “packages”.

Feel free to try it yourself:
as you recall something in your imagination - be it a pleasant or unpleasant experience, the associated feeling (or feelings) are also present, together with the memory and the image. Various body sensations are also present (e.g. my stomach clenches, my heart starts beating violently), there may be some behavioral impulse in my body - e.g. I would like to run away from the scene or shout something, and lastly, I somehow also interpret what happens or what happened - was it pleasant or unpleasant, the other person behaved this and that way in a certain situation and I interpret, “translate” that this and that way for myself.
