On this episode I speak with somatic practitioner Emma Gordon, of Body As Compass.
Conversation Highlights:
- Emma’s personal journey healing a traumatic past
- The body is always operating from a place of wisdom and what’s best for survival
- A starting place to befriend the body: self-compassion
- Getting the mind and body to work together instead of against one another
- Healing trauma from a place of safety, so finding safety in the outside environment before connecting to the body
- What is the nervous system, why it matters, and how it can become dysregulated
- How neuroaffective touch is an approach that can help people who have trauma patterns stuck in their body
- Human touch is essential to people’s overall wellbeing
- The negative feedback loops that occur with trauma
- Stepping into joy and pleasure to heal the body and build resilience
Quote:
"You know, you can't think your way through trauma, and you can't think your way into regulating your nervous system. And so I think there's a lot of shame for people around being traumatized, and trauma in and of itself creates shame, and then people have shame around having shame, and it becomes this terrible feedback loop for people. But it's not a conscious decision. We can't choose for our nervous system to be in a different place." - Emma Gordon
