I managed to get rid of all the symptons by doing exercise, diet and meditation, along with a lot of social contact. This year the covid-19 messed up everything and now I feel miserable again.

Exactly, we are often told that our feelings follow our thoughts thus we should change our thinking but that's nlt true, at least not fully true. Feelings are a natural reaction to events, impulses from outside. To get better, lighter thoughts, our feelings like pain, need to be exoressed, acknowledged / validated, then healed.

What is profound about this? The nervous system is there to tell the mind that it feels pain in some part of the body and that we should do something to remedy the pain. Anxiety uses the nervous system to manifest itself. In this case thoughts are affecting the nervous system.

In Paraguay, South America, my therapist told me that curing anxiety is really simple because it is not an illness, that I just needed to take my anxiety off my mind and throw it into the garbage, then tickle myself, and pray to Jesus. 👀 So, if you complain that therapists don't take this approach in your country, imagine how it is in third-world countries like mine.

Yes, praying will solve all problems! Prayer is a repetitive activity and as a consequence it does calm the body. Repetitive slow activities such as breathing in and out slowly, rubbing your hands slowly, etc do assist in calming the body. I suffer from GAD and I have been suffering this since 2001. At its height I had constant visual and auditorial hallucinations and many other terrible symptoms. Many of these symptoms are now gone as I worked on a daily basis nearly 24 hours a day! at exposing myself to my irrational fears and removing these. An irrational fear I had was that of giving my opinion. Whenever I attempted to do so I would blush intensively. However, by using the social forums and giving my opinion on many issues, I can give my opinion on any topic and feel quite comfortable about it. The social forums are good because I can expose myself in a safe manner.

I am slowly learning how to heal my body's nervous system from trauma with yoga and the difference is incredible. I was constantly living in a state of fear and anxiety, any noise, any sudden movement, any strange situation, I would notice it , my heart would start beating so fast, I was diagnosed with IBS (didn't actually have it but was just my flight response to need the toilet), I was paranoid, obsessive thoughts and I never actually truly knew what rest and relaxation felt like. I started to become suicidal and got admitted to a hospital , I ended up staying there for a very long time. After being out for a few years and doing better in myself I started to do a yoga challenge for 30 days and im here nearly three months since doing yoga everyday and the difference is insane. Sometimes you dont realise how bad the state you are living in is as this just becomes your everyday reality - its not until you enter a different mind state that you come out of the state you have been living in and yoga did that for me. I look back at only a few months ago and feel such sadness how I had lived my life like that for so long , my body constantly in stress and such tension, I feel really lucky I didnt actually get super chronically ill. we really can heal ourselves through the body.

There are many different shapes and sizes therapy can come in, it also heavily depends on your therapist, lord knows I’ve had to search for one I actually had a good connection with. Talk therapy is also generally not advised for PTSD cases, the type of therapy they will actually do is EMDR, which does not involve talking but actually involve reprocessing the experience to take off the emotional load that didn’t get processed when you got traumatized. I’m so glad you’ve found a way of healing that is effective for you! I just want to say to the people that need help, please go get help.

Dana Arcuri exactly! Not everything works for the same person and there is no ‘standard’ way to react to trauma! Those situations are so strange and not normal, how can we expect to be one normal way for people to react and one normal way to treat people that works for everyone? I’m so glad the holistic route is working for you! Currently I’m doing yoga to get connected to my feelings, sensations and emotions again because I’m so used to blocking all of that out. It’s a slow process but in the end I’m going to come out of it so much stronger. As a psychology student who went through a lot very traumatic experience I am really interested in it, so next year we start our research for our thesis so I might do mine on a more holistic way to heal from trauma. Are there any things that you found most helpful while healing?

When you can find peace in the middle of all the mess and suffering, you are on your way. In this world there will be suffering. Thankyou for all you do. Praying for you and your family.

Decades of trauma as a child- two autoimmune diseases, asthma, and even had depression as far back as kindergarten. I so wish I had this training when I was younger.

As someone living through PTSD, I always feel that these videos advise us to return our nervous systems to normal without honoring the need for our body to emotionally express things. My PTSD only got better by releasing anger, crying, shouting, etc, first. I lived a good childhood and I'm always a calm person but after trauma, your body stored sadness, anger, general stress that has to be expressed. I think it is helpful to master the parasympathetic nervous system but not until (and this is critically important) AFTER releasing the pent up emotions. If you try to calm your nervous system before letting things out, you train yourself to store things permanently. Its really like "then they swallowed their pain" vibes and its unhealthy.

There comes a point in Life where you have to come to the understanding that suffering is a part of Life and we must find peace inside ourselves that everyone at some point in Life will deal with some sort of what is called 'trauma experience' which in spiritual scriptions is described as suffering. The western part of the world uses a lot of labels which actually keeps people stuck in a victim mindset which keeps the body in resistance; it´s the resistance of acceptance of Life which creates anxiety. So it is important to use these type of information as tools for therapy growth and healing but to detach however from the labels used for trauma or else you will be constantly dependent through Life when another suffering experience occurs. Life goes through changes and we can grow from these patterns by creating new ones but what is sure is no one leaves this Life without experiencing suffering. Once you look at Life from a bigger picture by accepting changes in Life and that the suffering passes by as much as joy passes by...you will create peace in your state of mind. This is a great therapy tool explained for healing from old patterns and break from the victim mindset.

Hi, would you not recommended talking about the trauma? My therapist encourages me to when I'm ready by saying it will help me and she doesn't want something to happen when I'm older because all the stuff goes unprocessed, so she thinks it's necessary at some point to talk about it and says it will help me heal. I have been so wary it is just going to re-traumatize me or take me back to that place. A few years ago, I was going to therapy for the first time and another therapist asked if I had been through anything traumatic? So, I literally started talking about the traumatic experiences in my life I could remember that were surfacing back into my memory at the time. And after I shared two of them, I remember all I got was an I'm sorry. And I remember after I said it I had this weird feeling. I didn't feel better and I remember thinking that's it? I then had a lot of challenging emotions come up for weeks afterward and I felt like I was very close to having a mental breakdown when my mental state was already severe. I'm not sure if talking about that stuff had anything to do with feeling worse, but I have heard people say if you start spilling all your trauma, some people can end up in the hospital with a mental breakdown because it is so overwhelming and then I've also heard people say talk therapy doesn't help or made them retraumatized. What is the right thing for your mental health? Is there any way to heal or process trauma? I have been so scared to bring anything up after that experience.

I've recently realized the healing power of these gentle somatic movements. Oh my goodness I'm so glad, Praise God! After years of self-help from a terrible abusive and traumatic childhood or lack of one, I thought I was doing pretty good. Then 6 years ago my fiance died suddenly and traumatically in my home. Me and my son tried to save him and it was an ordeal with the paramedics and him lying on my floor for hours. After my adult son started taking prescriptive pills not prescribed to him because of the experience and then proceeded to verbally bash me for a next couple of years for pills. It devastated me along with re-triggering the post-traumatic stress I had worked so hard to overcome and made me a nervous wreck. At one point I could barely move off my chair for almost a year along with truly wanting to no longer live for like two. Never experienced depression like this before. Luckily I'm not in that spot anymore but this time around Im a lot older and in a lot more pain from three surgeries on my neck with a whole lot less of my life to look forward to. I've been doing a lot of cognitive stuff, positive affirmations, meditation along with seeing a counselor weekly for about 10 months which is helped a whole lot but not fast enough. I don't want to die alone at home. I've never been someone to isolate like this. The pandemic and having no family made it so much worse. I'm so glad I found this and some other videos on this topic because I don't like who I am anymore. As a young adult I had no choice but to work on myself because I couldn't live in my own mind and be happy. I'm in the same position now. But I realize it's my body more than my mind now. I did some exercises last night and weeped out loud like a baby but I wasn't sad my body felt such relief, my chest had been so tight I couldn't hardly breathe for days. I felt instant relief and I could hardly believe it. My chest was so tight to the point I was feeling dizzy when I stood up. That's gone now. Thank you for putting out these videos, not just this one but all of them. They've helped me a lot in the last few years I just never found this one before. They say that teacher appears when the student is ready. They also say that teacher leaves when the student has learned;)

​@@bubaiislam4292 Yes sure. You need to be still and quiet with yourself. Find a quiet safe space in your home where you can be alone. Be with the stillness of your surroundings for a few minutes. Close your eyes and set an intention to step back and allow your body to do 'what ever it needs to do' in this time. That you will allow your body to express and move in what ever way it needs to. You will observe and be the watcher yet you will not get involved unless you need to. Be still, sit still, and then start to naturally move however your body feels it wants to. You may start to question yourself and wonder if you are dictating those moves. That doesn't matter just observe and let it be. Keep allowing your body to move, flinch, sway, circle, jolt, make sounds, what ever next feels right. It normally starts off very slow and builds. It can take some practice to get in touch with this subtle aspect of yourself. Allow yourself to be as 'weird' as you need to be. Sometimes the weirder the better.. The main part here is you want to communicate to your body that it is ok and allowed to do what it needs to do and that 'you' wont judge it. From my personal experience, when you trust your movements and impulses and allow it to get 'weird', some spontaneous bursts of crying and emotion seem to come from 'nowhere' and almost explode out of you. This is what happens to me sometimes. It's very much a practice where you need to get familiar with your body and your own quiet. You can play around with it in your own time. Trust your body knows best and you KNOW you can always step in and stop it if it ever gets too much for you. You are always in control and able to step in. :) x

I "crashed" from stress, depression, exhaustion... and my therapist Rx'd an SSRI. There ya go! 5 years later I am still "crashed". My nervous system feels that it is off line.

I know all that i need to know how to fixed. More exercices maybe. You guys just keep talking about the problem not the cure.

When I moved back home after a really stressful time that threw me into a depression, I was surprised at how physically exhausted I was. Once I was in a safe space again, I slept and slept and slept. It felt really good, and I felt how much my body needed rest after my mind had been through trauma. In a way, it was a signal that we were okay again and that I could just relax. All that sleep helped me end the cycle of stress. Now I've got lots more energy again, I'm exercising and socialising, I'm working hard and having fun. But I don't think my mind would have been able to get here if I hadn't given my body time to recover. It made me realise that the trauma wasn't just in my head, it was also stored in my body.

Hi Emma, thank you for explaining this so well. I am stuck in grief over the loss of my 23 year old son from cancer. He was diagnosed at age 18 and passed away 5 years later. I have tried everything and nothing works, but listening to you explain the whole body system.....I will try this. Even in the video I felt it all made sense when talk therapy does not work for some people. Thanks again from Vancouver, Canada

Yep.. That's me. I'm that woman. I hope i found the right dr. But I've been getting myself out of survival mode, on my own. It's so hard to do this on your own while still having to survive.

i seriously cannot fathom the amount of help this channel can bring to individuals who just need such guidance and understanding of their psychology and physiology to bring the positive changes they themselves have the potential of. i am seriously sad by seeing how a much smaller audience thinks about these problems as actual solvable issues and reach out to free resources like these to learn and live through this crazy chaotic place. I cant thank you enough, Emma. I just found your channel recently and would love to learn from all the information you have already shared! Keep up the good work!

I have attempted to meditate many times in my life and prior to this CD the only success I've experienced is with live guided meditation. kzread.infoUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq This is the first CD I've used that cuts through my unmedicated ADHD and enables me to truly relax and experience a quiet and energizing interval. The instructors voice is very soothing and pleasant to listen to. I am easily able to sit successfully through the entire CD, and for quite some time after. I cannot adequately express how tremendously helpful this CD has been on my spiritual journey!! Two thumbs up and 10 stars!

One thing we must always remember is that healing takes time Never let anyone say to you that you can be healed in a day or two Our body is a gift of nature and it is alright if our body takes time to heal Always remember that words make a difference Saying a few good and encouraging words to anyone who is suffering makes a lot of difference Remember that mother nature will heal you All you have to do is to have some patience!

Helpful video. I dislike when this world doesn’t want us to feel emotions and to “get over it” and it’s no wonder we suppress them. It’s good to let it out and express it in a healthy way. My body still trembles sometimes but I try not to suppress it and instead let it be.

It’s amazing and fascinating! I started this journey at 35/36 now 40 I was blind to myself- after doing tonnes of work and unraveling I had the awareness but now had to embody everything! This was and remains the hardest part as I am now going against the ingrained record the familiar! It’s so uncomfortable- but so worth it! Yoga, yoga and yoga! It gets you into your body, your breathing and helps you to become a witness and practice detachment! It’s practice- there is so much resistance but it’s exciting! Change is possible ❤️ Sending so much love to you all! Get to know you, how you feel, your emotions and the way in which your body responds- we are not our trauma! Let’s put these heavy bags down 😍😘

I've severe chronic fatigue Syndrome. I've also experienced deep trauma, multiple times.. all this can cause Chronic fatigue. Along with other numerous factors.. Placing the body into a healing state and into the parasympathetic nervous system. Makes perfect sense. This video was so helpful.

This video came at the perfect time. Currently I'm in trauma therapy and EMDR for my PTSD. My EMDR is stuck cause of my body. So now I've been focusing on my nervous system and calming my body down. I've been in survival mode for 3 years now....this vid fits with everything I've been doing. I'm even gonna send this to my counselor and see if this book is good for me...which I'm pretty sure it is. EMDR is great and even talk therapy has helped me. But it all comes down to the body and that connection you have with it. Thank you for this video. It came on my feed at the perfect time.

This is literally everything I’ve experienced, down to the stomach issues- as a kid, I thought stomach pains were normal! I took a few years away from everything (it was not easy) to “rebuild” and focus on self-love. It’s helped so much! ☺️🧡 I’ve been looking for a comprehensive book or video for years now.

This is very true. Traditional therapy just keeps that negative vibration going. Retraining your body to Distinguish between excitement in danger have to help me. When a good sensation occurs inside of me I say to myself this is a good sensation. This is a positive sensation. This is a pleasurable sensation. When negative sensations or anxiety comes up in me, I allow it. I don’t fight it allow myself to feel it but I don’t attach a story to it. I just observe it and allow it. I also meditate daily. Focusing on regulating my breathing. Emptying my mind. I find it resets everything.

I can completely relate to this. I went through some very traumatic experiences and the physiological response is the hardest to address and correct. You could give your mind tools and exercises to attempt to intervene with traumatic experiences but the physiological response is way different. My body literally felt like I had just come back from war. It's so horrible. Working with the nervous system is key.

This is EXACTLY what I need... my trauma is suck in my body. All of this made complete sense to me. I’ve been through so much trauma and I suppressed emotions. Yes I had anxiety and depression because I didn’t know what was wrong with me. But I surpassed that... sometimes body gets stressed out with symptoms when I’m not anxious it just happens or triggers/thoughts. I need to learn how to bring my body back to calm. I just get so frustrated because I want it to just get better. Such a helpful video! 💜

I have been through 2 very traumatic relationships... I do ok if I just go to work and then hide in my house on my days off.

Havik. I’m so sorry. This sounds like possible narcissistic abuse. Have you heard of that or looked into it? People can become frozen in time until they address this specific type of abuse. I have had a few breakdowns in my life. I’m currently recovering again from another breakdown. It is not easy. I feel sick from it and can’t explain to others what’s really going on. This video does help. In the past I had narcissistic abuse and the biggest thing that helped me heal was yoga, learning what a narcissist does, staying no contact, learning self love/self care and boundaries. I fell away for 8 months and since then things spiralled, circumstances happened causing a PTSD nervous breakdown so here I am again. There is help and hope for you. You do not have to remain in this state ok? I hope you find the answers. Don’t stop looking till you find peace and find your power again. I gave my power away to an abuser incapable of love. So..it all starts with self love. You are loveable and worthy. ❤️

I really enjoy your calm, encouraging advice. I love how you present anxiety and depression as challenges that can be overcome. Then offer the steps on how to manage and lessen anxiety and sadness. I really appreciate you and Therapy in a Nutshell. Thanks for your willingness to help all people and for making the world a better place by doing so.

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia 8 years ago. Whenever I went to my regular doctor, I would hear myself say something out loud that I never thought about saying before it popped out. I would say to her, I have a broken central nervous system. I just knew that all the pain I was experiencing in my body from head to toe was from my central nervous system being broken and that break happen during a traumatic experience that triggered unconscious memories of childhood trauma. No doctor ever understands fibromyalgia and sometimes they don't believe it's real. But, when you only have three or four hours a day to do something before you can't stand up straight and the pain signals that are going to your brain are unmanageable, then something is real and something is wrong. I tend to believe that my subconscious is always chewing on something until finally it spits out what it has come to understand is true. I believe I broke my central nervous system. But, if I broke it, then I can fix it. Sincerely, Carly

So glad to find your channel! I have been dealing with flare up of intense physical pain due to trauma and prolonged intense stress. It was wild to make the connection that my body was in pain because of the emotional pain I was holding onto and unable to fully feel since I had to “be strong” and keep things going. Now that I know what’s happening I feel so relieved there are ways to work with it and heal. Thank you so much! 🙏💗✨

I'm so glad I found your channel. Thank you. All the best to you and your family in the new year!

I had stomach problems for a couple of years that got progressively worse and had all sorts of tests done. Doctors couldn’t find anything. After about 9 months of a new marriage going south because someone was a pretender, I left. Got my own place. In about a month most of my stomach issues were resolved.

Absolutely incredible video--your explanation was so clear and easy to understand, and the guided exercise was incredibly relaxing and safe....thank you!!

Thanks so much! I watch many of your videos and always learn so much. I have been in therapy for 10 years and finally have let go of the need to meet with therapist regularly, however, sometimes I want a refresher of what I learned with her and you give me this every time! Appreciate you!

This is my safe space. Listening to Emma. I am so grateful. Listening to Cathy's story was like listening to my own.

I loved how you made us do a grounding exercise in the end. It felt like you were speaking to me directly and it felt very intimate.

She hit the nail in the head at 9:40. Psychologists pretty much just want to hand you a prescription and send you on merry way. They would rather diagnose and let a pill “treat” your problems. I’ve witnessed a family member’s life being destroyed over the decades by powerful prescription meds, and he still struggles with the same core problems regardless of what meds he is on. This is the kind of “alternate” therapy needed to help people work through their traumas and emotional illnesses.

Love this concept! Just downloaded this book on Audible. Thanks for recommending it!

That was absolutely beautiful and so wonderfully compact for such a small session. Thank you!!!! You're a wonderful being. Thank you for doing these videos!

I was listening to you tonight while I was walking. It’s a beautiful nigh, full moon. I am so sad. It’s okay, I will feel better. It was so nice to feel the breeze, and my body. I stopped and close my eyes. I have faith that I will be better. I want to be happy, I do. Thanks so much for this. God bless you!

Emma, thank you. I think this is one of the most important and helpful videos you have made. I don’t know why I didn’t notice it a year ago when I first found you. Between then and now I have actually taken a course on this topic and yet I’ve been feeling confused about a number of things, in particular how this area fit into the field of trauma therapy and into the field of therapy and psychology more broadly. To my mind you clarify some important things in this video and in addition, to me this is the most calming and gently voiced video video of yours (and I think I have soon watched all of them at least one time, many of them several times) which is in itself very regulating and helpful.

This makes sense to me. Thank you so much. Someone explaining how it works gives me more understanding of how the body-mind-soul complex interacts. All we need to know and what doctors are not telling. They don't take time for that worthy talks.

Your voice is so calming. Wish I could have you in my little pocket when I have an anxiety attack. 💜

Thank you so much. I sent this to my psychologist. It does not make sense to me to NOT talk about this, yet I haven't found a psychologist yet who adequetly adresses this and teaches me ways to regulate and listen to my nervous system.

yep. most psychologists simply aren't trained in it. But there's good research, if he wants to see the research tell him to read Bessel Van Der Kolk's "The body keeps the score. Or search for a therapist who does somatic experiencing

@@TherapyinaNutshell thanks for the tip! I was wondering, since I'm following a course on polyvagal theory and it sounds exactly the same to me... do you know if somatic experiencing is somehow based on Stephen Porges' polyvagal theory?

Emma you are extraordinary, in the way you convey information and your choice of words and non-verbal communication. Thank you very much

Thank you I needed this so much, I saw footage of someone getting shot on live camera and this triggered me and effected my mental health because of this I suffered from mental trauma for like 4-5 months this went on very long and it really hurt me. I was crying for weeks straight. So thank you ❤️

This was very helpful, thank you so much 🙏🏾 I'm happy your video popped up in my feed 💜

This is almost the exact comment I was going to leave. The universe couldn't have gifted me this at a better time.

I have all but given up on professionals to help me through what has plagued me most of my life. Now, for the first time... this makes sense. When a behavior therapist asked me (related to my developed & debilitating OCD) to try exposure theapy... she suggested wearing mix matched socks! When she questioned why this therapy wouldn't work for me, I simply told her- "In doing so, would create so much anxiety.... I just wouldn't do it". Needless to say, I was demeaned "uncooperative to receive therapy in order to help myself get better", -Olmsted County Social Services in Collaboration with Mayo Clinic on providing Mental Health Services. It was the furthest thing from the truth!

This is an excellent video. thanks for sharing. I had PTSD 12 years ago due to having 3 car crashes in 7 months. Very difficult time for me with brain but I managed. In 2017 I had brain surgery to remove a tumour. Very difficult time but , I resigned and allowed my body and emotions to guide the healing, There was no other way! And I've healed so much emotional trauma as well as adapting to the new neurological issues. I have so much trust and appreciation now for my body .I've had the space to release emotions held within from my teenage years. I'm going through a major transition but I fully trust the process. And I listen now to my emotions and honour my emotions .Always be true to yourself.
