How Do We Feel Safe in an Unsafe World?
As a somatic practitioner, it's my mission to help those with overwhelmed nervous systems feel safe in their skin again. But how do we feel safe in a world where safety is not guaranteed? How do we feel safe while stuck in violent systems?
I'm not proposing we gaslight ourselves by doing breathwork and meditation inside a burning building. What I am proposing is that we learn to be fully present with our grief, pain, anger, sadness, heartbreak, and shame so our nervous systems don't stay stuck in trauma response.
