Somatic Experiencing TM (SE) was developed by Peter Levine, Ph.D. to help people heal and thrive. It is a gentle, and effective approach to healing trauma, and finding more freedom. SE uses the “felt sense” (learning to feel body sensations) to explore where energy may be constricted, and even “stuck” in the body. This can be acute trauma, (i.e. car accident), chronic trauma (i.e. body pain), developmental trauma (i.e. childhood challenges), or intergenerational trauma ( i.e. trauma carried through your ancestral lineage). Trauma here is defined as an emotional state where the nervous system is too overwhelmed to complete a healthy flight, flight or freeze cycle. Instead of the energy dispersing from the body, it gets stored in the body, and can affect the brain, organs, and emotions. This constricted energy in the body shapes the way one experiences themselves, and the world. Over time, this can cause chronic pain, anxiety, depression, challenges in relationships, digestion, hormonal, or immune system weaknesses, and more.
