I was in special Ed from middle school and then 23 years in high-school Special Ed. This is so critical to understand kids exactly where they are with compassion and validation of their experience and perception. The response is always profound.

So glad you brought up children and how we adults can be there for and with them. They can teach us so much if we can let ourselves listen and affirm their experience. 💖

I just kept thinking and feeling “I love these 3 lovely people!” Thank you ♥️

Fantastic that you have been addressing mental health in addition to meditation, it is clear to me that they go together. It took me long to realize that the way I feel affected my thoughts greatly. I learnt to repress emotions as a child, whick leads to a crisis as an adult. You may be aware of the School of Life in UK, they have done a fantastic work for a long time bringing awareness to how issues in our upbringings is the source to probably the majority of modern mental health afflictions, maybe you could interview Alan de Botton

I have loved listenning to this conversation, as for bringing greater clarity to the topic of imprinted pain inside our structures, its results and some of releaving modalities. Thank for all of 3 of you❤

I agree with the repetition mentioned ... Francine Shapiro the inventor of EMDR noticed the process when walking in the woods in 1987. I like walking and of late and doing art with watercolours as Jung used art also. EMDR may not work with some traumas so it has to be a multifaceted approach as Bessel van der Kolk mentions. Sexual abuse in childhood can be very challenging and many have tragically been through sexual abuse. I also think when we are only focusing on the trauma in talk therapy we can concretise it. I believe that families and society ignore facts like sexual abuse and shame those who were victims of it into silence ... this does need to STOP. So those who have been abused must not feel shame to speak up as part of our healing process. I will get your book and I enjoyed the content of this video. And I agree on the increments my healing takes place daily in relational moments by sharing with people around me.

Okay, how did the universe algorithm place this in my path now? Absolutely chock full of information. Sparks ideas to research and learn about. Completely actionable in a way that seems reasonable rather than frantic. 🙏

❤❤❤ this guy and your interview! So very proud of you and your wife for bringing trauma into the open Dan! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Love Dr. Perry. Never heard of him. Good to get context of trauma in our society. Trauma in life is personalized, when in fact it is generated by American society. How come Denmark is one of the happiest places on the planet? Could be a great travel adventure for Dan to go to Denmark and find out how high taxes (57% in Denmark) and collective good are highlights. Contrast Denmark's goals for everyone with our own hyper individualism.

It sounds like Polyvagal Theory is foundational to the safety v threat responses that allow us to either engage socially and benefit from community, or to have a sympathetic reaction of fight/flight, or even go to freeze and shut down.

Great insight, thank you. Really enjoying the three-person format as well.

More Bianca! 👏

Such a great interview

Hi Dr Harris, this was helpful, even sitting on the mat has brought me today to this bypasses step - I was looking for EMDR specialists in NYC and it seems my insurance does not cover it and each session is about $250. Are there any programs or centers you can recommend that might not be so steep.

yesterday s coping mechanism is tomorrows cage!

I was never sure exactly what Bianca was talking about or referring to....seemed so veiled.

he sounds a lot like dr. Levine...at least his view of trauma

ps and the Waldorf schools still do the learn through movement process

....or trying walking meditation....that will really get you in there. Thanks as always, Dan! This is lovely and appreciate the service you provide.🙏...and why I quit...surrounded by unregulated people is as hard as hell, regardless of how long I've dragged my ass onto the mat and practiced B ethics. To my view....we must be willing to face our trauma...face it head on....it's not going anywhere, may as well get curious about it.
