Ever had one small thought bring a flood of emotions to the surface? Like a still pond suddenly disturbed, feelings that were resting quietly begin to stir.

And that’s okay.

Instead of pushing them down, try noticing them.

Instead of fighting them, try breathing through them.

Take a moment now:

1. Inhale deeply through your nose.

2. Hold for a few seconds.

3. Exhale slowly, letting the feelings settle like ripples fading on water.

You don’t have to fix everything at once. Sometimes, just feeling is enough.

“Stillness is the ground of being from which all else emerges.
It is within and behind every breath, every thought, every action.
It is my starting point, my resting place, the home base to which I can return again and again.

In stillness I notice how time and space disappear.
All there is is the present moment and my willingness to listen...to allow the stillness to speak

The stillness takes me into the realm of conscious awareness that transcends my identity as body or mind. Stillness offers an experience of being and a recognition that my being...my essence...is a part of all Being, all Essence”

Trust

Every close relationship has problems, difficulties or misunderstandings, and the relationship between the therapist and patient is no exception. However, the manner in which the therapist and patient handle these difficulties together is another crucial component of the success of the relationship. When difficulties arise, can the therapist and patient share any negative feelings, hurt or anger that may have resulted? And, can they work together to resolve any problems that may occur in their work together?

We can learn practicing trust starting from the 4 C

* Commitment = Following through consistently
* Caring = Showing the other person matters
* Consistency = Reacting in a somewhat predictable way
* Competence = Demonstrating ability to meet commitment

Is empowering?

Yes 🙌

The body in motion and stillness carries meaning and tells us a story.

Accessing creativity in therapy through dance is an encounter with our inner world in conjunction with the influences we get from the environment surrounding us.

For the series together with

Today we introduce the movement sign for in the body.

Depression is the most diagnosed illness of our time.

Something that is a MUST know when working with people with depression .. it is not something that you can “snap out of it” .

Low levels of serotonin manifests in
some or all of this :

•Reduced appetite and weight loss or increased cravings for food and weight gain

•Anxiety, agitation or restlessness

•Slowed thinking, speaking or moving

•Tiredness and lack of energy

Methods based on dance movement therapy and body awareness, which include listening to spontaneous movements, are reliable rehabilitation tools, if explored with a body oriented therapist.

These methods can serve to express emotions trapped in the body and to open up to the world while overcoming the fear of being judged and the social stigma about depression.

When creating the logo for Expat Somatic Therapy] together with we explored how to portrait at best the physical sensations of some of the most common disorders.

This is Trauma.

The stress of past emotional and traumatic events affect the central nervous system in the human brain. This can cause changes in the body and our body language.

This can leave an insidious trace that spreads quickly like this drop of ink.

How an event affects an individual depends on many factors, including characteristics of the individual, the type and characteristics of the event(s), developmental processes, the meaning of the trauma, and sociocultural factors.

“One of the common problems documented in cases of trauma and PTSD is the disconnection between the mind and body (Ogden et al., 2006).”

Expat Somatic Therapy]

We offer support for people struggling
with PTSD and traumatic processing of events and memories.

How ?

we encourage the client to give a name to their movements and to clarify what they are experiencing.

Knowledge and description about body sensations can restore a sense of ownership.

We encourage the client to relive metaphorically the experience while building and owning a new story or reintegrating the old memory.
