About this title

Synopsis

Are you trapped in a cycle of stress, anxiety, pain, or trauma? Is your body always on edge, leaving you feeling drained and tense, even affecting your sleep? Somatic therapy is the key to cultivating inner peace and regaining your emotional and physical well-being.

⭐ Your healing journey begins now with Becoming the Body, a complete somatic therapy workbook ⭐

When a traumatic event occurs, our body triggers its “fight or flight” response. In many scenarios, the emotional reactions of this response get trapped, disrupting the feedback loop between our mind and body, leading to an imbalance in our nervous system function.

Over time, this can cause chronic stress, pain, high blood pressure, and a weakened immune system.

This, alongside regular triggers in our everyday life, will manifest into a disconnection between our mind and body and create a constant feeling of dissociation from our emotions, with minimal control over how we feel or what we are supposed to do to break free from our trauma.

Somatic therapy combats this dissociation by targeting the root of the issue.

By employing a range of exercises and tools with a body-orientated approach, we can enhance our mind-body connection and restore balance to our nervous system.

Allowing our bodies to return to their normal functionality, eliminating these awful symptoms of chronic pain, anxiety, stress, and more.

A few things you’ll find throughout this workbook to aid with the process:

• Science-based information to understand what is going on inside us and why mind-body connection is so crucial… (Our body stores trauma)
• Thought-provoking journal exercises and prompts
• Exercises that safely revisit our past safely to overcome what is buried inside of us
• Grounding techniques that help us stay calm and centered in our daily lives, enabling us to turn inward when we need it the most.
• Body-awareness exercises designed to enhance our connection with ourselves by making us more conscious of our physical sensations and responses.
• Somatic movements and breathwork to achieve a better connection with ourself
• Many somatic exercises to help manage built-up tension and stress.

And many more valuable tools..
