This gentle Somatic Experiencing exercise is designed to help regulate your nervous system when you feel dissociated, overwhelmed, or are in a freeze state. You will feel gently mobilized so that you're no longer stuck in freeze and can experience a safer, more connected state. This can be useful for when you can't get off the couch or out of bed in the morning or if you feel exhausted but you can't seem to sleep. Find a comfortable position, either sitting or lying down on your back or side. Make sure you're warm enough and your shoes are off so you can wiggle your toes easily. Only do what feels easy and pleasant. Movements can be small and slow.
