I'm glad your content came up. I'm glad to follow you. Thanks.
Glad you enjoy it!
I really appreciate how you speak about all of this.
I’ve studied this for a few years now as I’ve attempted to integrate an ayahuasca experience that threw me into dysregulation.
That feeling of complete chaos in the body has led me to feeling extremely suicidal for almost two years.
Just out of control and without agency.
I appreciate the gentle reminder we do have agency.
Thank you.
Healing is so scary. But possible.
It’s understandable that such profound experiences can leave us feeling untethered, especially when the nervous system is thrown into dysregulation. Healing from that place of chaos can feel overwhelming, but as you said, it’s possible. Rebuilding that sense of agency, even in the smallest ways, can be the key to grounding and re-centering yourself. It’s often about taking things one step at a time-whether through breathwork, somatic practices, or simply reconnecting with the body in gentle ways.
Please know that you’re not alone on this journey. With continued patience, self-compassion, and small, intentional actions, the path toward balance becomes clearer. I’m grateful that the message resonated with you, and if there’s anything more I can offer to support your process, don’t hesitate to reach out.
Thank you so much for this, i needed this, i have been blaming myself healing trauma and wondering why am I resisting, i have been doing somatic yoga, lot of trauma has been coming out and I have been hard on not doing things, I destruct myself as well, i have been having my childhood memories, i have been putting so much pressure on myself on getting the emotions out, doing a lot of yoga with breathing exercises but just wondering when will I be okay, now I realized I have been putting stress to myself unaware so now I know what to do, saying it's okay, I have beileving everything that comes in my mind, I'm learning I have to be self compassionate and self patience and not want to have control
Wonderful to hear of your healing journey and some really powerful wisdom you’re learning. Little by little you’re building capacity to feel what wasn’t safe and restore your sense of power in your body and self 🙏
So if our body is completly frozen stiff in protection , then we embrace the protection because it kept us safe? And have compassion for all that went into that freeze being built. We gain power to be with it rather than fighting it and making it bad.
Yes, this can be helpful. If we consider that the state of freeze is a result of experience(s) that we’re too overwhelming and the freeze is the coping mechanism to feel safe… for it to release, that past version had needs that weren’t met, seen, heard… through seeing this and offering what was needed, the experience leading to a separation of self, can be integrated back into the whole self. This is just general considerations based on working with hundreds of trauma cases. I hope it may be supportive 🙏
