The second I am asked to think, I lose my awareness of sensation. So sometimes you or Irene will tell us to notice our sensation, or consider if we’re inside or outside our window of tolerance, which all requires thinking, and then I lose my attention to sensation. Any suggestions? I’m so thinking-oriented that I struggle here.oddjar2024-08-29T17:46:18-07:00
Hi, Seth. I had, in 2013 and 2017, a vertigo attack. Since it didn’t stop, I had to call an ambulance, and the other time I went to the hospital, I’ve seen specialists, but they couldn’t find any physical issues. I’m worried it’ll happen again. Now, when I’m in social situations, I feel dizziness, which comes up from the neck and head, and I have anxiety, which makes it worse. I’ve got generalized anxiety and early trauma as well. What can I do?oddjar2024-08-29T17:46:18-07:00
Part of me feels I’ll never get to feel safe or at ease until my family passes away.oddjar2024-08-29T17:46:18-07:00
I never saw myself as having anxiety, but I’ve been feeling into it a lot lately with much shaking and teeth chattering. The shaking just keeps going unless I stop. Maybe too much of this is overwhelm and trigger, and it led to being sent to A&E with a very high blood pressure.” I assume A&E is a name for emergency. “Seven hours there crammed amongst lots of spluttering children led to horrendous flu, and now my blood pressure is perfectly normal, but heart rate still high. Not been ill like this in a decade. It’s been agonizing. Feels like endurance and suffering are inevitable and relentless.oddjar2024-08-29T17:46:18-07:00
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.oddjar2024-08-29T17:46:18-07:00

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?oddjar2024-08-29T17:45:22-07:00
