A little while ago I did a video on the importance of practical work for healing trauma at the nervous system level, and today I want to talk about the importance of EDUCATION. You see, they are both important. We could even make up a mock math equation [...]
Today’s video (under ten minutes!) will remind you, or maybe teach you for the first time, why working with the body is important when healing stored up stress and trauma. When I say ‘body’ I mean more than muscles and movement. While those are indeed important, as mentioned [...]
It goes without saying that human beings are not your regular “animal.” And while I don’t know the historical references that put the word ‘being’ after human instead of ‘animal,’ it’s clear we human beings are unique beyond measure, and because of this, our individual resilience will be [...]
About a year ago this week, my special topic lecture of the month was all on the origins of self-sabotage. It was a massive hit, with comments like these: Because of this topic's popularity, and how this insidious behaviour can paralyze us from moving [...]
Hiya! I get questions about skin picking and other OCD-like behaviours a lot! Many of my students report that they experience this, and that they stop this mild form of self-harm as they begin to release trapped trauma, become more somatically aware, and regulated in their nervous systems. [...]
I’m stoked to share a shiny new interview chat with one of my Somatic Experiencing colleagues, Dr. Aimie Apigian. Dr. Aimie entered into the world of developmental trauma and all things nervous system health when she adopted a little human while in medical school (crazy, I know!). In [...]
In this week’s vlog, I take you on a bit of a journey through some of my own personal discoveries around old traumas surfacing, body tension, and also severe physical pain. Long story short, I did a lot of intense and shock-producing sports in my childhood, teens, twenties, [...]
I have a brand new video that makes the connection between stored traumatic stress (aka: trapped trauma), and the development of chronic illness that resides in our gut. But first, a quick note on how powerful the gut is for safety: There’s a reason little humans (aka: children) [...]
I thought this might be a perfect time to share what was without a doubt the most popular (liked, commented, shared) social media post of 2020. It’s got to do with the subject line you see here: the origin story of procrastination, self-sabotage, and fleeing from health; and because this concept hit [...]
I often livestream Q+A’s to help address any concerns my followers and friends may have about the work I do in somatic healing, or more specifically, neuroplastic healing sequencing. But before I lose you with hefty clinical words, let’s start out with the main point of this particular [...]
