I had a deep feeling of safety in my system in the first year of SBSM, then small shifts and a wider container.
I am now better at handling stress; I can now recognize hunger and satiety cues; I have the tools to work with my tight jaws; I overall have more energy; I am better at recognizing when is time to rest and have less guilt about it; I have a better capacity to feel “negative” feelings and not take it out on my partner 🙂 I have a better understanding of my own needs, I feel I am more myself. My posture got better by itself – it feels like I have more energy inside my body that is holding me up, before I was always hunched over – before I tried different exercises for my back and it did not work.
I feel more in my body and more regulated while working with people. I feel my personal growth is more smooth and in a way deeper. Life feels more enjoyable even if it is hard. Even my sexuality changed.
I am kinder to myself and more nurturing towards myself. I feel that I can count on myself now – still have a long way to go but this is much better than it used to be. I love the SBSM material, and I love the fact that I can keep on learning and learning and I learn something new almost every week. I feel that I am on the right path. Thank you for everything!!!!
