Your nervous system influences every aspect of your life, guiding movement, thought, and sensation. Your nervous system uses nerve cells called neurons to send signals, or messages, all over your body. Comprising the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, your nervous system enables conscious actions. Somatic work helps you to understand and gain control over what messages are being sent by your nervous system.
understanding your nervous system
The autonomic nervous system is an intricate network of nerves that governs involuntary bodily functions, such as breathing and heartbeat, without conscious effort. Ever-active, even during sleep, it plays a vital role in sustaining life and maintaining the body's internal balance.
Your sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems work in harmony to maintain equilibrium. The sympathetic system energizes and activates bodily functions, while the parasympathetic system calms and restores them.
This delicate balance is essential for your overall well-being and survival.
Unhealed trauma isn’t just a memory—it lives in the body, resurfacing through sensations, reactions, behaviors, emotions, and eventually, thoughts.
When we become activated, the brain's language-processing centers go offline, making it impossible to simply ‘think’ our way out of these experiences. Instead, we must communicate safety to the body through somatic practices, gently guiding it toward regulation and healing.
