    So in the end, what we needed is unconditional love. Too bad it's so rare these days, and will only get rarer because people who were never properly loved don't know how to love, but still have children.

      totally. I watched a lot of nice videos by G and S .. they all come back to co-regulation and having some people in your life + being health wise well to do things like yoga etc. what is people dont have that? (both people family and being with chronic illness and pain) .. Because of this I appreciated their nice content a lot but also discouraged that survival needs some resources in this tribal community ... I agree with your last sentence ...

      @@shahilagh a lot of people who lacked community supports in immediate community have found covid expanded the size of their communities... especially as more people followed the example of Mutual Aids and found ways they could contribute that didn't exceed their spoons. It's actually how The Wisdom of Trauma film gained so much traction so quickly, and why the Trauma Healing & Prevention UA-cam channel was born.
      A dear friend today reminded me that inertia is the only thing upholding the status quo, which actually gives them hope because each one of us is capable of change.... and as each one of us changes, we throw a monkey wrench in inertia.

      @@traumahealingandprevention yeah this works if someone is well enough to have the need for just talking with someone; then the community helps. You haven’t experienced the life reality of what I say. When someone has illness and is alone and needs help but they don’t have that and do it themselves and safety that all those theories are about don’t exist … No need to defend them . What I say or the other person wrote is an opportunity for them to acknowledge our social limits.

      @@shahilagh why do you think I haven't experienced the reality of being homeless? Of being all alone with no supports?
      Is it easier to think that there is no way someone went from rough sleeping to married to an abuser with kids, to living out of a car with kids, to being determined that no one else should ever have to feel that alone and discarded by society?
      Our society was set up to intentionally be self-perpetuating, all that is required is for no one to change, and everything remains exactly the same: Power as an illusion, yielded up to those who punch down...
      A never-ending revolving door of whom is "othered" to distract people from paying attention to what we actually have control over....
      A growing divide between "haves" and "have nots" and an intentionally fostered addiction process to prevent people from recognizing that a community, even a community of unhoused individuals is stronger than any CEO... as long as they work together.
      This is not an easy conversation to have IRL, and nearly impossible to have online. My personal experience is htose of us who have nothing, have spent an extended time having nothing, are far more willing to share what we have with anyone who has less, because we are more in touch with our humanity than individuals who have "the luxury" of distancing themselves from their humanity with work... with material things... with distractions.
      Once people have no more distractions, they get very focused, and it is that focus that society is intentionally set up to distract us from with infighting/arguing/othering.
      So, if it's easier to think I haven't lived it... then I haven't lived it. Do what you need to do so you can get through each day, and when you are ready to change, you will.

    Gabor Mate said it very clearly in Zeitgeist part 3 where he covers childhood trauma and how it relates to addiction and ignorance and trauma in adulthood whether you’re poor or whether you’re rich. “Executives who exploit and pollute the planet for maximized corporate profits are addicted to power and look at the damage it causes…….yet they’re rewarded!” Thank you Gabor Mate for all you do. No more hungry ghosts or extinction.

How they shared and What they shared are in style of class, spirit uplifting, and humanity. Maté was a high school English teacher before he pursued his medical profession, he speaks as he would write.
    Much as we are interested in Polyvagal Theory itself, let us also enjoy what was being shared in their conversation. This conversation is "PLAY" in its best demonstration.
    Somehow this Maté & Porges conversation lead me to listen to Franz Krommer's Concerto for Two Clarinets E♭, Op.35

    Dr. Maté, in one of his conferences, made me realize my survival and the independent woman that l became.
    Dr. Porges made me realize why l am a self-regulator person. I have discovered the world without having money; no fears, just learning and how others live

My social connection was my medicine. Thank you so much for making this available to us all.

    Two of my favourite people. I’ve watched young house surgeons come through their training as Doctors and marvelled when they had come through the system relatively unscathed. I specialised in Paediatrics when I went back nursing after having children. I had realised that the whole family needs support if a child was Ill. I found that I had to be so careful that I wasn’t rubbing up against my superiors and causing change that they didn’t agree with. I ended up creating a scenario that prepared the child for a traumatic procedure with the use of play specialists and on film that the whole family could watch. After I left they scrubbed the whole preparation, I suppose they thought it was a waste of time.

    I could deal with childhood dysfunction and never had any physical health problems until my middle thirties. I married in my late twenties and started having children in my thirties. When I had children everything changed I could handle all life threw at me but when I had children it all changed. I was now their protector. I can handle whatever life had but I was going to protect them. I was sexually assaulted at thirty five by my husband's disabled nephew. I was left alone to babysit my four year old daughter and the nephew while the family went to a funeral. I believe I could have moved past this experience but the response I received from my husband was the nephew didn't know what he was doing. Husband didn't consider my feelings or how I was traumatized. Husband told me I should have been able to fight off a twelve year old boy. He's stronger than me and out weighed me by fifty pounds. For an hour and a half I was assaulted. My fight or flight kicked in and I knew I had to protect my four year old daughter. I have long hair and my hair was drenched in sweat like I'd just gotten out of the shower. I thought my husband would have a better understanding and have compassion towards me so I tried to show my husband what his nephew did to me and my husband couldn't handle what I was trying to imitate what had been done to me. He told me he didn't want to know and left the room. I had no idea this episode would be my breakdown. I began to have many problems. Irritable bowel syndrome, severe migraines. Finally my body shutdown. I could not walk and was bedridden for a year. I had no diagnosis from fourteen doctors. I just wanted my life back. I could no longer work, make home cooked meals for my family, no longer involved in my church as a teacher for children, caregiver for my elderly parents, be a wife or mother. My abilities were gone without pain medication and by the time I got a diagnosis it was to late. I was addicted to pain meds. Physical therapy helped some but I will never be the mother my children knew in their early childhood. My diagnosis was myofacial pelvic floor pain. Looking back it all makes sense. Your body can only handle so much before you will notice mild then severe physical problems.

    • @Dzanarika1
      @Dzanarika1 2 роки тому +3

      First, thank so much for being so brave to share your painful experience. Second, we, as humans, need to work on our listening, understanding and patience skills in order to connect to orher humans and not just dismiss them quickly. I do think that your husband got triggered by your sharing of your experience. Obviously, it was too much for him to handle. Maybe, just maybe, he had not dealt with some of his traumas, and thus he reacted the way he did. We are all traumatized and many of us are afraid to even talk about it. We need to learn to talk about ANYTHING and not be ashamed or afraid that people around us, especially the closest ones, would judge us. This is a new way of life, and our brain needs to be rewired.

    There is so much here to review again and again. I was particularly resonate with Stephen’s comments about watching old movies in part to revisit some of the cultural aspects portrayed in a time when he was growing up. Just recently I felt compelled to watch some of the the popular shows I watched during the 70’s and boy I didn’t even want to let my young daughter overhear it. The viewing of it shed light on how it was most impressive to numb down (not dumb down) as a human being especially in a case where both parents are fervently working to keep a roof over our head with little time to counteract it and the kids are left to their own devices and influences of it for long and consistent periods of time.

      Yes, I agree about Craniosacral Therapy - it’s very gentle. In addition, touch your child as much as possible by hugging, rocking in your lap, and engage in imaginary play. Let the child play with simple hand made toys. Do not sit the child in front of TV, except for just 1/2 hour a day. It’s best to talk to a child, play, laugh, create a very safe and happy atmosphere. Plan ahead. Talk to other successful parents.... and so on. Blessings for your child 👶

    Focusing on the problem/trauma makes me feel sick/bad. I am looking for the solution. Perception is bad for me. Creativity is good. Consciousness is the domain of the ego and its part of the problem. Consciousness is for experiencing consciously life, not for making decision's .

    Very valuable, thank you.
    I think it’s difficult, and maybe does this conversation a disservice to use this format. People must find it slightly nerve wracking to not only attempt to have a conversation knowing an audience is listening and watching, but to fear that dreaded dead air.
    Would it maybe help to have a conversation over a bottle of wine, in front of a nice fireplace, (privately)and then edit it , so your communication is relaxed, you have time to collect your thoughts, and what the speakers really want to communicate can be found and presented to those wishing to learn? Just a thought.
    Also, it has to be impossible to grow up in a family which is not dysfunctional, and to never be traumatized. So we are all carrying around trauma and dysfunction. Our parents did, and our children will. Especially in the climate of fear we live in. Especially on social media, where natural diffusers like humour rarely work, and where people tend to be defensive?
    On healthy societies, I keep thinking of a piece of film I saw about a small tribe. Because all members are needed and can’t be wasted for the tribe to survive, they have this ritual. When one member of the tribe is troubled, they all sit down on the earth, in a circle. They face inward and have their legs stretched out in front of them, so every person’s foot is touching the foot of the next person. The member with the problem speaks up, then that tribe stays connected to each other and to the earth, and together they address the problem, and come up with a solution. I thought it was beautiful. BTW, they wore almost no clothing, comfortable to live their lives without hiding in clothes.

      Acceptable idea or not, I have known families who did not pass on trauma to their children. Only a few, but real. Until I knew these families - and I mean I was involved closely in their lives - I didn't believe such relationships were possible This does not include my own family or my personal experience, quite the opposite. So I do know the difference between a family filled with love, joy and kindness and the way most families manipulate their children.

      I spent a great deal of time at a clothing optional resort close to my home most of 2020. It was one of the only places that didn't restrict interaction. Nudity wasn't required but was practiced to an extent by all members. Lots more old & imperfect bodies at these places. I find them more accepting, more physically affectionate (not in a weird way) & more neighborly/helpful as a group.

    i think about those psychoanalytic providers who believe in being “blank slates”’showing no facial expression to their patients and how potentially triggering this could be to patients who are wired to read facial cues for safety and how activating this alone could be to their attachments systems and how this alone could influence the entirety of treatment… then the patient gets pathologized instead of recognizing that this could be a normal response to a flat expression that gives no safety cues.

      YES. but the problem is that the outcomes aren't always the same, plus the pains come back. but yeah I agree C is so good. these people talk about recovering from trauma but dont say what about people with chronic pain who dont have the energy and any support to have those interactions they speak about helping with co-regulation ... I totally agree but this is often useful for people with resources (even very little) and plus not having much pain.

    Who also comes to mind as I listen to this wonderful conversation and the direction that these 'bold' people are attempting to take their 'discoveries' -- is Ron Kurtz, founder of Hakomi therapy and the Refined Hakomi approach. (And of course also Dick Schwartz and his work with IFS...for the individual and how his powerful spirit, approach, ideas and techniques might reverberate in society. Ditto the work of Peter Levine and attachment work of Diane Poole Heller, and others.)
    Ron Kurtz, with Hector Prestera wrote, in 1994, the book 'The Body Reveals'. Ron brought forward the non-pathologizing approach that 'applied' Taoist and Buddhist wisdom and somatic and 'mindfulness' techniques - along with neuroscience and 'systems-thinking' approaches; he introduced concepts around paradoxical Taoist expressions like 'the best leader follows....' and applied them to 'following the natural course' and facilitating a discovering and healing journey for one interested in self-study (aka a client or patient) by tuning into somatic cues, making room for what he called 'the adaptive unconscious' to come forward into consciousness - with safety and attunement - for the self-studier to EXPERIENCE in a safe space and a 'compassionate witness', to understand the co-regulation (and almost energetic dancing) involved.
    So much of what Bessel van der Kolk ('The Body Keeps The Score') and his followers and colleagues, and people like Pat Ogden and Janina Fischer and others seem to resonate with and extend from there.
    Bless this wonderful discussion and the memory, humor, playfulness, compassionate expression and all -- and the boldness of a beloved mentor in Ron Kurtz. And the many others who respond with such feeling and passion (and compassion) to suffering in others, and the extent to which they also are share to move in 'preventative' directions.

    Observing the effects of misidentified cause. Brain is an effect. Cause is held true feeling. Not the feeling you think you have the one you don’t know you have. Injury is in the Will which majorly effects the head. Also Body is an effect of the Will. So working with those two is endless. Also the Will/pure feeling has ears. The biggest ears. Btw Will is not the willpower but a pure feeling that doesn’t talk. Feelings don’t talk they express by feeling only which when trained to hear has a Voice. Voice of Unity. And this is hearing the VOICE which is the healer. Humans can’t heal without this Voice. Period. You will as you keep TRYING.

      We can be born more sensitive than other people so emotional wounds will be more likely and have a greater impact. Trauma is not the event but how the nervous system responds to the event, a sensitive person will be more affected by it than a less sensitive person would be.

      you might be interessted to check out ANS (autonomic nervous system) rewire by Dan Neuffer. He made the programme for Fibromialgia and Chronic fatigue, ....but listening to Gabor and Steven...it may be for other conditions, too!! I have FM for almost 20 years - downhill for all that time. Now this programme is getting me up up up, I am improving and also know why I'm not, when things are stagnant for a while! Not a quick fix, been at it for a year.

      I healed my issues via plant medicine work w ayahuasca. My suggestion is 3 ceremonies over 5 days every 3-4 months for 3 or 4 years. Find a good facilitator and make sure you have a good integration program is crucial. It’s very powerful and useful medicine. I’m convinced it regulates the autonomous nervous system.

Both of these are all about emotional trauma release with expressive writing and mindfulness . It's free. Join the fb group journal speak . I'm really serious there are thousands of people symthom free from fibromyalgia , dysautonomia , me/ cfs , other chronic pain conditions and imune diseases. It all came from the work of dr john sarno and gabor mate and him had a film together called( all the rage ). I've been doing it a month and I'm not completely better of pots and chronic pain and but over all I'm 70 percent better and I'm back at work after 2 years of nearly bedridden . Please look this up if you truly beleave that there is a mind body connection
