The trauma that we experience not only lives in our memories but in our bodies as well. For many women, this can make healing a confusing and frustrating process because they don’t realize how their tension and emotional overwhelm are rooted in past experiences. Without understanding the body’s role in trauma, it is very easy to feel like something is wrong with you. With somatic therapy, women can not only gain insight into their lived bodily experiences but also regain a sense of presence and trust that makes them feel whole again.
