Understanding Disgust: An Overlooked Emotion in Healing Chronic Fatigue and Trauma
Disgust is a core emotion!! But it's rarely discussed. And it can be a prominent and essential emotion to learn how to recognize, acknowledge, de-shame, and somatically release as we work to heal our developmental trauma and re-gain our life force energy. Disgust is held in the solar plexus chakra (specifically in the stomach organ), which is the chakra that helps us create healthy boundaries and direct our passions into action and drive. So if we have unprocessed disgust sitting in our solar plexus, it can inhibit access to and action towards our passion, direction, and purpose. It can also have physical repercussions like low stomach acid, chronic nausea, etc. In my journey, I've found that unprocessed disgust can also actually prevent us from moving anger effectively, which is a huge component in healing chronic fatigue! ✨Disgust is actually a natural, protective emotion that can unlock blocked anger and facilitate healing. So in order to work with disgust, we have to develop a loving somatic relationship with it... we have to learn how to embrace it and embody it to release it. I show you ways to do that in this video. I'd love to hear how it goes for you if you try embodying and releasing disgust! 💕

The Art of Allowing in Healing Trauma: An Ancestral Trauma Release Experience
Переглядів 4437 місяців тому
When healing trauma that's stored in your body (showing up as illness, chronic pain, gut issues/weakness, mental symptoms, etc.), the healing we can do in any given moment is always a question of how much can we ALLOW ourselves to feel? It's always about allowance - how much can we allow ourselves to see and then feel in its entirety, enough to move through us and be released and fully processe...
Healing Powerlessness from Attachment Trauma Through Symbolic Memories
Переглядів 6759 місяців тому
When we're working to heal attachment trauma, so much of the emotional memories that are being stored in our bodies and causing physical problems come from an accumulation of hundreds or thousands of little moments and interpersonal messages. That means they are not explicit memories with imagery to conjure and work with. So how do we release emotion from this type of trauma and heal?? The answ...

Every time that your body is pulled into a freeze response or triggered state is a miserable experience. And all we want to do is get out of it. But the truth is, whenever we are in the deep dark pit that is a triggered state, we are closer to the wound that's causing it than we are at other times. That means that every time our body goes into a freeze state is a new opportunity - a new opportu...

After experiencing adrenal symptoms again years after recovering from adrenal fatigue, I've been diving deep into the fear being activated in my body. What I've found is that it's the deep programmed fear of using my power in any way - through drive, ambition, setting boundaries, taking up space in the world (aka solar plexus energy!). Anytime I use my solar plexus to "do" it comes with a lot o...
