My daughter was born at the start of COVID when stress was high and I was having career uncertainty. I remember I freaked out when she was born, and recently through SBSM, I realized how this moment was kind of a stored survival stress that made me see parenting as scary and overwhelming. Any tips on how to work on fully releasing that so I can shift my relationship with parenting? I recently started tapping into the joy of parenting after those insights, and I want to experience this fully.

Will Irene’s training be for somatic experiencing practitioners?
How do I know what to do?” Lots of questions about, ” What exercise do I apply when? How do I know what to do when I’m feeling a lot of high emotion? What to do if there’s, say, movements, I have movements coming, but it’s always the same, nothing changes?
It’s my third round of SBSM, and now I’m in a state where I just want to be left alone. I don’t want to play with the kids, or do anything with them. I feel so annoyed and irritated. It’s like I’m a child myself with this behavior. I’m finding it hard to change how I feel and act. Any ideas what to especially work with, which lesson?
Hi, Seth. I have a tremor mostly in my left hand, but also in my right hand. I think I’ve had it for a long time, but lately it’s come to my attention and seems to be worse. I have surgical and childhood trauma. Can SBSM help with this? I worry about it getting worse.
I used to think I was lazy or not smart when trying to read anything information, science, technical, et cetera. Even in subjects I’m passionate about, I cannot concentrate. I reread lines. I feel like I have to highlight everything in order to remember it, to understand it. Bookshelves filled with books that I only read a few pages, many of which have been recommended in SBSM, and I am truly interested in. I realize now that reading these things is very activating to me.” Aha. “Suggestions on how to heal this.
I’m curious about what’s going on from an SBSM perspective. I’m 26 and I’ve had this thing since I was 19, at least, where my joints make snapping and popping sounds. I’m quite flexible. My pelvis and hips seem to come unaligned frequently. I feel I need to make this popping happen in my joints quite often, to realign. Movement feels great but doesn’t seem to lessen this. I want to cultivate balance and wellness. Curious about what might be happening.
I have pre-verbal trauma and I’m halfway through SBSM, having started in April and taken my time. I find with every lab I burp excessively during the process and not at any other time. Is this a release of storage survival stress that will resolve on its own, or a coping mechanism? And does it mean that I need to slow down even more with the process?
How can I tell the difference between a regression and healing and having stuff arise? I did SBSM in March and will still find myself in days of dysregulation that I would call manic or anxiety states. Most recently because of a potential new relationship starting. Is it normal to have lows stay as low as they have been with longer times of better regulation in between? When low, I worry that I’ve undone all my healing work, or I’m guilty of not having done enough. Do you have any advice?
