Healing Trauma 4: Sensation And Energy In Our Body

Trauma is stored in our body as sensations and energy with associated memories and thoughts. When we feel overwhelmed, when something is too much for us, our system tries to protect us by disconnecting and storing it until a time when we have more resources to deal with it.

This session guides you through ways to be present with sensations and energy in the body. Locate and describe - is it moving or still? Why is it here - working with thoughts. Noticing the space around the energy. We maintain awareness of body and breath, aware we are safe in this moment, and this allows stored trauma to come forward and heal.
