This four hour session is intended to begin teasing out from our bodies the notion that trauma makes us defective, broken, or inadequate in any way. By spending time in community we learn: we all have trauma and the only "problem" is having to carry it alone.
In this session, we will explore boundaries, people pleasing, and the fawn response through a somatic lens. Often, our bodies have learned to prioritize the comfort of others at the expense of our own needs, a response deeply rooted in survival. When we fawn, we bend and blur our boundaries in an effort to avoid conflict, rejection, or abandonment. By tuning into the body's wisdom, we can begin to recognize where these patterns live within us and practice establishing boundaries that feel safe and supportive. Together, we will unravel these habitual responses and create space for a more authentic expression of self, allowing our bodies to reclaim a sense of agency and balance within relationships.
Through the magic of co-regulation, our bodies become mycelial roots that stretch across the space we're in. Together we increase our capacity for emotions & sensations that would be too much alone. I will open the space with a somatic practice, invite some weaving of intentions, teach you about co-regulation and lead an exercise in it, and then we will all take turns experiencing what it's like to be held by 50 hands on a table.
To be loved back to life and release the stored pain we hold through connection and celebration, instead of isolation and shame. We will end with bringing the comfort and safety that we created together back into our own homes with our own bodies.
