The whole of somatic experiencing and TRE, which is traumatic release therapy, is exercises- is to teach the body, like they taught the dogs to come out of the cages.
Ever feel like your body is holding onto past pain? In this eye-opening episode of 'Past Imperfect: The Alchemy of Transforming Trauma', hosts Samantha Seager and Jude Claybourne dive into the fascinating world of somatic healing. They chat about how trauma manifests in our bodies and share practical ways to release it. From yoga to stand-up comedy nightmares, they cover a lot of ground with their trademark blend of humor and honesty.
The episode introduces listeners to techniques like somatic experiencing and traumatic release exercises (TRE), which help the body let go of trauma bit by bit. You'll also hear about 'pendulation', a method that involves gently moving between safe experiences and touching on painful memories in a manageable way. This back-and-forth approach can make the healing process feel less overwhelming. Samantha and Jude also highlight the importance of doing what you love as a form of healing.
Whether it's dancing, painting, or simply taking a walk, engaging in activities that bring joy can be incredibly therapeutic. They remind us that trauma doesn't define who we are and that recovery is possible—sometimes quicker than we might think. They even throw in some light-hearted moments, discussing societal bamboozlement and the funny side of their own struggles. But they don't shy away from serious topics either, offering a trigger warning for discussions on abuse and manipulation.
If you're curious about how to reconnect with your body and find new ways to heal, this episode is a must-listen. It's packed with insights, practical advice, and a touch of humor to make the journey a bit lighter.
