Immobility and Fear: the Somatic Connection
The Covid-19 pandemic presents mental health professional with unique challenges. Our evolution has prepared us to respond to threats that we can see, identify, and then respond to, as in fight or flight. However, we are now confronted with a potentially lethal pathogen, one that we cannot see and that we don’t have an evolutionary prepared active response to meet. This can lead to chronic shutdown, collapse, fear, helplessness, anxiety and depression.
By learning how to help shift our interoceptive (internal) experience, we can move from helplessness to empowerment with a greater capacity to live in the here-and-now, without undue fear.
This talk is hosted by Karine Bell.
Science and Nonduality is a community inspired by timeless wisdom, informed by cutting-edge science, and grounded in direct experience. We come together in an open-hearted exploration while celebrating our humanity.

When someone is depressed or in grief, please just listen! Please don’t try to encourage them “to feel better”. If you support them by simply listening and being there (you don’t need to say anything), even joining them in using Levine’s “Voo”, they will be able to work through the darkness and come out the other side. It will work, but it takes time, understanding and perseverance.

"The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure that you seek" (Joseph Campbell). Thank you both for this beautiful and really helpful talk! I do experience an invisible enemy, and I can say to myself "I think that...".

Can someone help me understand what he means when he says in order to get out of the immobility response we need to contradict it?

@yashi7799 Жыл бұрын

So basically immobility response is like a state of shut down and in order to get out of the state- we need to get out of the “stuckness “and move.

@@yashi7799 Oh ok that makes sense. So moving are bodies even though we don’t want to with maybe light yoga or just walking around will get us out of it?

@dreamvex_5755 8 ай бұрын

⁠@@sharonashley1008to my understanding it’s move that energy out of our bodies. I remember hearing something about how kids just shake and do all these silly movements it’s natural to them and that helps move energy throughout them. Throughout the years going through life and adulthood you lose that

So much wisdom and truth here. The pandemic and Trump have traumatized (re-traumatized) millions of us... and the threat is not quite identifiable, and everywhere. My system is so out of whack.
