Reko Vitae

I value my own experiences of wounding, pain, grief, and healing, especially when I am face to face, heart to heart with someone who is experiencing these feelings. My connection to them helps me to ground into an empathic place and be present to them at the moment. @lightningtree_mg

The neuro-reprogramming that happens during trauma can have lifelong behavioral as well as physiological effects. These effects, though systemic, are rooted in a biological response to perceived life-threatening situations. The brain reacts as if the threat is present every time it recalls that situation.... This does not happen every time our lives are in danger however. In the cases where there is trauma though, the brain and nervous system can heal, and re-organize to respond appropriately to the present environment instead of reacting as if ones life is in imminent danger. New studies are finding that breath, somatic awareness and directional eye movements can help reprogram the body's responses to trauma triggers. #trauma #breath #breathe #somaticexperiencing #somatic #breathwork #bodywork #nervoussystem #traumahealing See more

The past is always interpreted in the present. But sometimes the present is interpreted through the lens of past experiences. While talking, especially with skilled and empathic listeners, can help create new clarity around lived experiences, that new clarity needs to come down into the body and be integrated.
