Getting Unstuck: Navigating the Stress and Trauma Spectrum (Somatics III)

To be human is experience stress as well as being on a trauma spectrum. In this episode—part three of the Somatics Series—we define trauma in relationship to stress, in connection with Polyvagal Theory. Trauma is the energy of overwhelm in which we feel (and then, most often, come to believe) that we don’t have the resources to make life work. This episode concludes by introducing the pathway out of trauma and stuck energy.
