The Body Keeps Score

We are spiritual beings having a human experience. Over the years some of our collective experiences may have been unpleasant. And now, more than ever, we are ready to let go of those experiences to move forward.

This is why we incorporate integrative practices that strengthen our connection to spirit and our physical vessel meant to carry us through this existence.

"Dissociation is the essence of trauma. The overwhelming experience is split off and fragmented, so the emotions, sounds, images, thoughts, and physical sensations related to the trauma take on their own life. The sensory fragments of memory intrude into the present, where they are literally relived. If the trauma is unresolved, the stress hormones the body secretes to protect itself keep circulating, and the defensive movements and emotional responses keep getting played." ~The Body Keeps Score by Bessel Van Der Kolk

Symptoms of dis-ease manifest physically when unresolved issues are not resolved emotionally.

• Lungs store grief

• Heart stores sadness

• Kidneys store fear

• Spleen stores worry

• Liver stores anger

• Tumors, cancers, and autoimmune diseases have also been linked to unresolved trauma [along with diet and lifestyle]

Your experiences are valid. And now you deserve peace and joy. I am glad you are here and want to live your best life.

Reflect:

Where in my body am I disconnected the most?

How can I start to come back home to myself?

What do I need to feel supported going forward?

What could I do in my life if I didn't feel ___?

Be well.
