I don’t think it’s insignificant that trauma, the word and the lived experience of trauma is everywhere we turn. I don’t think it’s insignificant that somatic therapy, embodiment practices and it all of its tentacles is also everywhere you turn.
I think that it is LIFE showing us, and that we are finally being able to SEE that the world we have been living in has been a world where we have be taught to suppressed our pain.
Deep inside our bodies
in our tissue
in our waters
in our cellular biology
and that the way in which we integrate it, we befriend it, we come to know it, and see its wisdom, and see the wisdom of how we can move beyond, into a new timeline, a new experience is through these embodiment practices, is by reclaiming connection to our body and into the inquiry of something that is beyond our mental story.
Welcoming ourselves home through curiosity rather than judgement.
Embracing our soul through deep listening, but also through connection; so not just through deep listening that we might be able to do on our own, which is amazing, super beneficial and supportive, but the support of another nervous system that is safe, someone who is gently guiding you beneath the layers, that helps to separate slightly, to extract the wisdom, become curious, titrate the experience so that it doesn’t become a cathartic overwhelm experience, that doesn’t get integrated.
Our pain gets stuck when there is no safety to integrate it and our pain then becomes the pain in the world.
