Shaking. Yes! Many people on the autism spectrum naturally shake or flap their hands, etc. because they are overly aware of their bodies in some ways. I hate that it has been stigmatized. People need to feel free to do this any time they want, just like animals feel free. Just think how different the world would be if we were all more accepting of ourselves and others.

I no more than placed my hands on my chest for the butterfly hug than a huge emotional release came...crying and everything. Guess I really needed it! Thank you so much for this video!

Is this woman a genie? That butterfly hug was crazy healing

I'm new to somatic anything, found this video by chance, did the butterfly hug and immediately started crying - making me think there is value and truth to this approach.

Butterfly was amazing. Not exaggerating. Just learned about this. I'm a water aerobics instructor. Been training on land since I could walk. Live learning new.things and using them in myself. Had 17 yrs of brain damage from neglect abuse( but not physically strangely enough). I'm putting my life back together at 55. I look great, no meds nothing. Now it's time to stay grounded ( somatic) and grow a career so I can live financially. Thanks for this special modality. 🙏

2:23 Kids naturally shake it off and are often told to get a grip or stop. Wow, tysm 😊

The first excercise was like my mind and body soothing eachother through tears with the sentences "I'm with you till the end. Dont give up. You are not alone, i am here I am here" ❤❤

My disabled body can do most of these. Thank you

This is great! I think actually feeling the feeling while doing these is a great way to make them even more powerful. For the first exercise as an example, closing your eyes and imagining how it would feel to have all the love in the world surround you (while doing the movement.)

I just did the first exercise. Within a minute or so I started crying and gulped at the same time. My upper body feels so relaxed like I’m not holding onto anything anymore. It felt like I let go of something?? Truly amazing. I will continue. Thank you for this. I really needed it ❤

The moment I did the butterfly started crying pretty heavy too and before you said there would be an emotional release, amazing!

That first exercise got me. I just cried and cried about how exhausted I am.

To be honest, it's really frustrating reading that so many people did the butterfly one and started crying immediately, because I felt nothing at all from it, just taps.

I don't know whether i become anxious...but i felt so much relaxed after following your instructions 😊 Undoubtedly i will continue to do these simple exercises Thank you ❤ Love from India 🇮🇳

Butterfly helped me feel sad not angry and i didnt cry but had tears in my eyes which helped release some sadness and it relaxed me. 😌 thank you so much will definitely do this again.

This was really wonderful.....however I think it would be great if you changed the title to 4 SOMATIC EXERCISES because that's how many there were:)) They were: 1. Butterfly Hug, 2. Wipe Away, 3. Shake, and 4. Goddess! These are simple but, I really liked them very much!!!

I really like how this is organized based on mood

Namaste & Thank you for sharing & caring big blessings & sacred dreaming stay Blessed

Thank you, love your voice, intonation etc. Helped me calm down nervous system a bit. Love to see more about calming dysautonomia.

Basically I am working out my feelings out of my body whether good or bad

Great video 🙏🏻 Thank you. Unconditional love to all ❤️♾️🌌

Thank you

I appreciate the simple explanation and show of moves! To many others out there can make something seem so difficult when it really isn't. Thank you 🙇🏻‍♀️

I love this! Thank you!

glad i found these, perfect for my breaks at work,,thanks

Well done! One ADD ON: Shaking - NEVER SHAKE YOUR HEAD!

This video is great! Thanks for sharing!

#1- I never experienced something so weird in my life lol. Cried after I started the tapping.

Thank you. I’m struggling with back pain 💚

I feel bad after reading all the comments about people crying. I did the butterfly hug and didn’t feel anything. Now I wonder if I did it wrong. Do I need to be standing up? I was doing it on my couch.

Thank you! 💛

I do not know what black magic this is, but it is working as advertised. Have a sub.

The butterfly hug method i sleep like this most nights!!

This was so good. Thanks so much! 🙏

Thank you so much❤

The butterfly one is the same as the Garuda mudra said to aid lung & chest complaints. 👍

Thank you 🙏❤️

I used to always bounce my legs when sitting in a chair when i was a kid. And I mean ALWAYS, to the point my dad would yell at me to stop or strangers would ask me if I was nervous. I never felt nervous. Maybe, bored?? I do it some times as an adult.

Wow I can't believe that I am 93 non verbal communication wow. I really do need this workout sessions

Thanks. Really good techniques.

Thanks so much

Great video, thank you for the time stamps 😊

So good. Thank you

thank you so much, it helps🧡

Well the butterfly hug just triggered a 2 hour long balling my eyes out session

Thanks a lot .

I tried the butterfly technique and I cried so much but it felt good afterwards ! 😅

perfect

I had surgery. It wasn’t worth the discomfort & pain. 7 yrs later I removed the implants. I did this work out n didn’t feel nothing at all.

Wow thanks!

Thank you xxx

Very insightful 👌🌻 loved it

Great advice!!❤❤

How long do you do each exercise for? How long would you do the butterfly hug for?

The butterfly hug was intense

Dear mam...i am suffering whole bodypain. Weight gain low energy brain fog..pls help me

Hey' can you teach us somatic exercises for double chin?

please please please please please, Jesus. I cry out to you with all my soul... bring into my life my twin-flame, and a tribe of real friends. I cannot bear to continue to be alone...

ha, i've been doing the butterfly hug for years without knowing it was a thing!

If you start crying how long do you cry? I cry at everything and since I rationalized everything and didn't allow myself to feel anything so crying in the wrong moment feels weird and wrong, not to mention that I have been crying for 53 years and I'm really tired of using tears to express every emotion.

Is it odd while going the butterfly, I felt a heaviness on my chest, and my breathing changed as well?

I'm going to rename the 3rd one to "the holy frog" to help me remember 🤣

what movement do you recommend for Anger?

topp!

Cried within 30 seconds of butterfly hug. Weird. Not even emotional , at work, lol!

Hi there. I tried the buttery hug and i cried 2 seconds in.im jus wondering is this something i should do daily or how often should i do?

I keep seeing people who say that they immediately started crying and felt a release from the butterfly hug, im usually pretty in tune but I felt nothing. I’m wondering if Im doing it wrong and will also try a visualization technique next time. But I’m also just curious as to why some people are having such an immediate reaction, does anyone know the reason to this? Like, what’s the purpose behind the action? Maybe it’s the hand chakra’s over heart chakra effect?

I'm in a wheelchair. Can I try the butterfly while sitting down?

💖💖💖💖💖

Felt nothing tried different times different days. - nothing changed at all 😮🤷‍♀️

ciekawe

Nice freemasonry hand signal snuck in there at the begged 😂

Who says this stuff works? What is source ? How do we know if this is authentic? Where does it come from?

I can’t help wonder what you are wearing on your right hand/finger

Thanks🥹🤍

I thought my Xbox turned on

GRATITUDE 💝🙏🏽❤️‍🩹
