    In this episode I speak with a major thinker and pioneer in the field of trauma and recovery and author of the seminal "Waking The Tiger", Dr Peter Levine.
    We talk:
    - The concept of re-enactment and why it's so important to understand for personal and business relationships
    - How memory formation works and what we mean by implicit and explicit memory
    - Why trauma is still so taboo
    - How Dr Levine first discovered the natural mechanisms we can use to recover from trauma
    - What we can do within businesses to acknowledge and benefit from understanding trauma

    When I was in my twenties I went to a therapist who immediately took me back to my one of my core trauma experiences which had happened when I was younger than five. It was absolutely terrifying, and I ran from that office and never went back. I wound up being grateful for that experience because, at 66 years old and after a year of ongoing therapy, I was able to revisit that experience in that office, just for a second. But a second was enough, and the result of that was a feeling of strength and empowerment, because I instantly knew where all my problems were coming from. The memories had always been there (some of them) but the emotion was not, and when I was able to connect with that emotion, I KNEW. It validated everything! The addictions, the depression, the anxiety disorders, the ADD, the inability to connect with people, all of it. I was sad and angry, but at the same time I felt like a strong focused adult instead of my usual childlike, dissociated self. I was my authentic self at last. Of course since then I've gone back and forth, but I've been able to experience my authentic self more and more. That revisiting was a breakthrough for me.

      @@nourhealing2516 I don't remember, it was long ago. But there should be therapists out there who would be willing to do age regression hypnosis, and if all else fails, you can hire a hypnotist who can do age regression. Any hypnotist worth their salt should be able to do age regression. I think they cost less than $200 for a session I understand people even use them to find things that they've lost. Are you in therapy? You might ask your therapist about it, they might be willing. I signed up for aura which is like $11 or $12 a month, and gives you zoom access to hypnotherapists. I don't know their level of expertise, I only just signed up to it. But I figure they can help me with all kinds of things like sleep, eating, habits, and so on. At least I'm going to give it a try and see

    I am 76 now. When I was born I was artificially induced 3 wks early and when I got home my grandma told my mom I had to go back in the womb. So, for the next 2 1/2 yrs I was kept in a closet and touched only when fed, diapered and given enemas. When I was 40 asked my mom what happened to me? I was a suicidal drunk, got a college degree then ignored it. Chit chat did not work. EMDR worked for a while. Rebirthing had temporary benefits. I started taking clonazepam before bed for non-epileptic seizures in deep sleep.
    Today, I started reading "Waking the Tiger" When I got to the story with Bob Barklay's unfrozen fortitude something clicked in me and I began taking on that role in my mind, going back to nasty adults and kids as a smiling super kid. I felt great to mock them especially when
    I remember how I used to hide from everyone in a distant shopping mall after school.
    Then, when I got to chapter 7, reading about the animal side, I had another epiphany. Not being that fond of people I started considering my animal body a little deeper. Suddenly, i realized my body is trying to help me, protect me! Sure, I hated cramps, rapid heart beats, etc., but they ARE proof something was here fighting back for me!
    I had been doing some YT meditations with Sukie Baxter and Irene Lyon and they certainly pointed me in the right direction but after all they got their direction from Dr. Levine.
    Thank you, Doctor.

    Richard, as a fellow primaler I was hoping you might have challenged Levine's previous statement as fact that to feel a feeling fully, directly, without 'titrating' or 'pendulating' is necessarily "retraumatizing". I posted this comment on one of his other videos. Sorry for the length:
    What has worked for me, I’m sure is probably too scary for most trauma survivors to consider, but is safe (with the right experiential foundation), and gets to the very root of the trauma, and undoes the effects, in the short run, and over time, in my experience.
    Pretty much all of the techniques, methods, approaches I’ve seen seem to be about trying to get away from the discomfort, to soothe it away, visualize, tap, self-talk it away. But for me, the issue is that the pain from the original trauma was not fully processed at the time, because of overload of the system, so it is stored in ‘cellular memory’, or ‘body memories’. By fully processed, I mean fully felt, in the body. If a child has a very painful experience and is allowed the full, truthful expression, with a parent or loving adult present, they won’t store the pain, with all it’s symptoms that cause problems later.
    A brief history: had an alcoholic father, and other major dysfunction growing up. In my early twenties, went through a period over some months of trying to heal myself of what I considered ’stomach problems’, and other issues in that general mid area of my body (prostatitis, bladder infection, ulcer, etc,) and back issues, by fasting, restricting my diet, other obsessive compulsive extreme behaviors (exercise, etc.). Came very close to dying (a few weeks away, a doctor told me). Stopped the behaviors and began a search for what was wrong with me, what and why it happened.
    Was led to a process that facilitates the connection with and release of the deep pain stored in the body, usually beyond conscious memory. I began to experience real relief/release from my symptoms, physically, emotionally, a feeling of safety (to use Dr. Levine's words), for the first time.
    I discovered, over the course of many months, that I had, as a toddler, been violently sexually abused by my alcoholic father (in blackout), and experienced abuse from my older brother. Before that, I had no conscious memory of those early experiences.
    So, what I learned to do, at first with a facilitator/therapist, and later on my own, was when the symptoms of trauma arise, in my case, extreme terror, anger, feelings of impending doom, impending violence, instead of trying to get away from them, I learned (in a safe, reasonably soundproof setting) to allow the body to bring the feelings to the surface, and then when the body/emotional body (sometimes referred to as the ‘pain body’) is allowed to fully connect, the body begins to release the pain by fully feeling it, not as an act of will or intention, but completely spontaneously, by letting go into the pain.
    I discovered that what I thought would kill me (fully feeling, going with the pain) when it had a chance to flow, to express itself in it’s pure truth, that it, like a wave, rose, broke, and dissipated safely, afterwards triggering endorphins to flow, feelings of well being, and deep relaxation to happen naturally. The real suffering was more in the resistance to feeling the feelings. When the pain/the feelings were allowed to fully connect, in the body and being, and begin to flow, it almost felt good (even the most horrendous, unspeakable pain), like I had been waiting to do that all my life. I discovered that the body/our being will only bring to the surface what can be handled at a given time, and then shut down again.
    So, seemingly paradoxically, but not really, the way to the other side of the extreme, unbearable feelings of discomfort was to go into them, not try to manage, unless I was in a situation where I was not able to process. I could put the pain on a ‘back burner’, and when it was safe, allow myself to feel the feelings, and get release.
    Gentle deep breathing is very helpful to facilitate the flow of feelings, to undo 'freeze', shutdown, a blocked, locked up body.
    What I meant in the opening to this comment by ‘’right experiential foundation’ is needed, is that if a person, a trauma survivor, is able to go through this kind of processing, some kind of security in the present is necessary, primarily I think in the form of at least one person that is truly safe, not abusive, trustworthy (support system; therapist who understands, friend, 12 step support group like Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families, or other safe support people, though their may be some people to avoid within these groups who are not safe), and some kind of sound spiritual principles (like, but not exclusive to, the 12 steps) to live by. And probably enough experience with those loving, accepting, trustworthy people, to provide a new experience in the present of real safety, very different than whatever abuse or neglect we experienced in childhood.
    Ideally, it probably is necessary, at least in the beginning, and for a while, to be able to be in touch with someone who truly understands, from personal experience, this kind of direct processing/release of deep feelings, deep pain. With time, more and more trust in the process, and the loving, compassionate Higher Power behind and guiding it happens, and we can learn how to do the deep self care needed (that we didn't learn in childhood) to take care of ourselves on an ongoing basis. When a person opens up, becomes vulnerable to the degree necessary to do this kind of deep processing, when old defenses, dissociation begin to fall away, it is vitally important to avoid reckless exposure to people and situations (usually our original abusers/perpetrators, or other destructive people) to avoid unnecessary overload which can have destructive effects to us, and jam up the flow of our process and progress in our life. If overload happens, we can learn how to move through it and get back on track. But life will happen, and the situations that arise (best not from reckless exposure) will naturally trigger us, and the feelings that arise are the catalyst to access the deeper, 'original' source of the pain.
    Very important; this is not ‘getting out feelings’ characterized by deliberate hitting, screaming, punching a punching bag, etc. This may be useful to facilitate the beginning of getting in touch with feelings, allowing the feelings to begin to flow, but as soon as possible then, to just let go completely and allow the body to take over. It is necessary to have a real connection and release, and integration, for the body/emotional body, to fully connect and move, spontaneously, make sounds on it’s own (not directed by the will/intention). When this connection happens the sounds, words, movements will be those of whatever age the experience is rooted in, originated. The body/emotional body/our spirit has its own wisdom and knows how to release, process, heal.
    A facilitator (best someone who has direct experience of this kind of processing) might be important in the beginning but not to do much, mainly just to witness with empathy, to stay out of the way when the feelings begin to flow. Possibly with deep empathy, could help to connect with words, questions, to help trigger a real connection with the feelings, the original pain. But, after a point, talking can also take a person away from the source of their feelings. It is important that the person being present/facilitating is able just to be present with the expression of deep emotional pain, without needing to 'fix' us.
    Wish I could have been more brief in my comment, but felt it important to be clear and as thorough as possible to minimize misunderstanding, if possible. I received criticism of this, my process from a facilitator of the Levine approach, I believe because she did not understand it, or my experience. I was not there (heard it second hand later from my girlfriend at the time, who talked about her understanding of my process) so could not explain, defend it.
    The Levine approach may have some value for a person who is too afraid of, or not ready for this approach, I don’t have any judgments. But I do feel that it doesn’t seem to allow the kind of full connection that I write about. Unfortunately, Levine and others mischaracterize opening to and directly feeling the full intensity of trauma feelings as “retraumatizing”. It is not, if a person is ready to feel them, and still, we can trust the wisdom of the body and our being to only bring to the surface what we can safely process, if we are not pushing or being pushed into something we are not ready to process. Even the dreaded feelings of overwhelm, can be felt and processed safely. They characterize the experience of trauma. They rise, break, and dissipate like other feelings, if allowed to connect and flow.
    Here’s a link below with more info.
    Please excuse the offensive, misleading visual image. I requested it's removal but the writer didn't see the need. I was able to learn to process on my own, and did not go formally go through the institute that is connected to this form of therapy, but started with a trained Primal therapist, whose job is to mostly be a compassionate witness, not to talk much. I don’t think of it as therapy which implies a man made/devised/thought up technique or method, so I just call it the ‘primal process’.

      Hi Lawrence - thank you so much for this comment. Yes, you're absolutely right, the deep healing that it sounds like we've both experienced, only comes from fully feeling; total surrender to that early pain through re-living the trauma.
      You're right that perhaps I could have challenged more. That's good feedback.
      I also appreciate that you added in the point of having sound spiritual principles to live by whilst healing.
      I think getting close to the pain, 'grazing the pain', as many like Levine advocate, can be powerful in terms of gaining insight into our behaviours, but it may not be sufficient for permanent resolution.

      @sheri023 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I think the body resists the trauma, even little traumas, such as a sibling not liking you. Rehashing sounds like justifying or accepting what happened but doesn't help the feeling go away that we were not liked. Facing it with our bodies and not resisting how it hurts us is healing. So yes, it takes a body experience to heal and let the experience or hurt in for a while. I agree, rehashing or re-thinking doesn't usually help. It just puts an adult spin on a child pain.

      I've found that I've need body work and I've need to work on my past. Rehashing useless. Re-living blow and blow and allowing myself to feel every iota of pain has been 100% necessary to cure myself of the neuroses stemming from the early trauma.

I have retraumatized myself over and over because of my family being dysfunctional and abusive and codependent as a unit ... so this helps me so much truly I don't know how to be safe from the possible consequences of my stupidity mistakes and ignorances due to these cycles of trauma and dissociation and numbness..

    Found Levine's "Tiger" book many years ago, tremendously helpful both as a personal portal into non or less reactive states, and to assist my clients. Also needed: mndfulness/mediation (MBSR); somatic 'listening' skills; Voice Dialogue to Listen fully to any and all 'parts' of myself, with kindness, acceptance, appreciation for the roles/jobs they play, and realizing the traumatic reactions are always attempts to keep us/get us safe --and hopefully loved, protected. Also - shamanic journey'dreamwork and tantric induction granted me skills in creating the spaciousness in which to discover what needs were 'hidden' in my triggered epsiodes. -- I experienced in utero and birth traumas, sexual invasions, lack of healthy attachments to either parent --and suicidal depressions attended ends of lover relations: but here I am, in my mid 70s -- thriving. Blessings on our brows --thanks for your program, thank you Peter.

      The interviewer performs the key roles of listening and not interrupting. However, when it came to the personal stuff...
      From @20:03, there's a glaring absence of the proper question: 'what do you think of this opinion of myself' ...Instead, it's 'allow me to tell you all about me'. There's no engagement with the experienced therapist's disinterest in his misguided self-justifications.
      When Peter speaks again, he hints: 'you think you're experiencing gut intuition, but actually you're denying truth in order to replay your traumas'.
      I hope that message went in eventually.

    just one observation. generally speaking and not regarding PTSD, especially regarding childhood, not everything needs to be labeled as trauma. that word is traumatic in itself. there is a book called I am OK, you are OK where they explain perfectly about how kids can learn thing in the wrong way by making wrong conclusions which obviously happen in an automatic way and goes right into subconscious processes. so basically my point is let us not forget that besides trauma there are other issues such as mentioned in that book and let us include authors such as Thomas Anthony Harris into our read. because obviously there is no one answer or solution to the psychological problems. like, there are so many pieces in that puzzle. do not expect one person to solve that riddle.
    what helped me is finding the underlying thoughts because from my experience they are the source of emotions and maybe we could even say they are one and the same thing

    How can I participate to a group for healing my symptoms of fibromyalgia and live a better life.

    • @fromeveryting29
      @fromeveryting29 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Do you yourself see a clear connection between trauma and fibromyalgia? My mother has it, but she rarely speaks about it. I'm 25 and just realized these last hears how messed up my parents are. She one time just casually said that her father (who died of cancer before I was born) was an alcoholic and that it is a family secret and shall never be spoken about. Also she said that she was briefly married to a psychopath for a while. It's weird to see your parents as really, strangers, with their own lives you know nothing about.
      I'm trying to make sense of what's up with my parents. My dad has severe parkinsons to the point he can barely speak any more, and he has been abandoned by his family. My mother is repulsed by him and bullies him pretty badly. She bullied me too, in her teens. I'm the child that most resembles her.
      What could happen to a child that leads to chronic pain? Wish you healing!
