I see you empaths 👀 I can’t be the only one that had to learn this the hard way.
Comment FAWN for my recent online session where we explore somatic ways to heal this pattern 🌀
A nervous system in constant hypervigilance is an exhausted one.
Somatics changed my life. We’re kicking off a Somatic Series to help you deeply repattern this nervous system response.
Make sure you’re following along @themindfulphysio_

Every Sunday, we come together from all over the world and move our bodies live on Zoom.
We dance so emotion has somewhere to go before it turns into heaviness, shutdown, anxiety or depression. When movement happens regularly, things don’t pile up. They pass through.
Comment SUNDAY and I’ll DM you the link to get your class pass.

Can’t wait to see you on the virtual dance floor ❤️✊🏽

Alle børn (og voksne) kan få øjeblikke, hvor kroppen reagerer hurtigere, end ordene kan følge med❤️🩹
Jeg ville ønske flere forældre vidste, at en øvelse som denne kan være med til at:
♥️ støtte overgangen fra alarmberedskab til ro i nervesystemet
♥️ give kroppen et tydeligt rytmisk signal om tryghed, hvilket kan hjælpe med at dæmpe tankemylder
♥️ skabe regulering gennem relation og berøring
Når vi skiftevis stimulerer højre og venstre side af kroppen, arbejder vi med noget man kalder bilateral stimulering.
For mange er det med til at til at skabe mere ro i kroppen 🌀
Øvelser som denne er særligt brugbare i de små, uforudsete øjeblikke. Hvis kroppen pludselig reagerer, ved overstimulering, uro, panik osv.
Sådan gør du:
Sæt dig tæt på barnet eller overfor hinanden.
Læg hænderne på hinandens overarme.
Klem skiftevis højre og venstre side i et langsomt, jævnt tempo.
Hold tempoet roligt og lad vejrtrækningen falde naturligt til ro.
Bliv ved, til du mærker, at kroppen begynder at slippe lidt eller barnet ikke længere har lyst 😌
-hvis øjenkontakten bliver for meget for barnet, kan du også sidde bagved og lave øvelsen derfra♥️
Du kan også lave øvelsen alene -ved at stimulere skiftevis højre og venstre side på dig selv.
Når din egen krop falder mere til ro, smitter det direkte af på barnet.
Det er her, co reguleringen virkelig begynder: gennem dit eget nervesystem.🫶
Kender du en forælder - der kunne have gavn af denne øvelse? så del den gerne med dem💛
Jeg er så taknemmelig når I gemmer, skriver og deler - Tak 😌🙏

Manchmal braucht es keine große Bewegung, um etwas ins Fließen zu bringen.
Diese sanfte Bewegung aus dem Somatic Yoga lädt die Hüfte ein, Spannung loszulassen und wieder weicher zu werden. Du hebst den Oberschenkel an – und lässt ihn ganz bewusst wieder fallen.
Kein Ziehen. Kein Erzwingen.
Nur wahrnehmen, bewegen und loslassen. 🤍
Speichere dir die Übung und probiere sie heute für ein paar Minuten aus. Wie fühlt sich deine Hüfte danach an?

Here’s another one of my somatic practises I use with clients.
Did you know that gentle touch can help calm your nervous system?
This simple technique involves applying light pressure between the eyebrows and slowly gliding upward across the forehead while taking slow breaths. The movement isn’t about a “magic pressure point”—it’s thought to work by encouraging mindfulness, reducing muscle tension, and activating the body’s relaxation response through slow, intentional touch.
When we focus on gentle physical sensations and our breathing, it can help shift our attention away from stress and signal to the brain that we’re safe. For many people, this can reduce feelings of anxiety and help them feel more grounded in the present moment.
It’s a simple practice, but like many grounding techniques, its effectiveness comes from consistency and finding what works for you. 💛
This is one of many grounding exercises and isn’t a substitute for professional mental health care.

The body releases differently when it feels safe.
I use a blend of fascia work, mobility, somatics, and nervous system practices to help the body move out of protection mode and into healing.
A safe body is a healing body.

💫let’s dive into this:
.
👀your eyes play a significant role in your movement. There are lots of reasons but here is a main one:
.
🧠 your mobility is directly related to how safe, or how threatened your brain perceives you to be. If your brain senses more potential threats, it is going to limit your mobility by bracing and creating muscular tension & even pain.
.
🧐 so how do we lower the perceived threats??
.
👀 eye movements can play a significant role in this!!!
.
🧐 so just move my eyes around??
.
🤪 it’s not that simple. Your eyes have basic skills. They are designed to do certain things. And when you practice and train your eyes at these basic skills, it often leads to your brain feeling safer and therefor your movement opens up!!
.
👏 there is a bit of a learning curve— which skills does your brain like the most? At what dose? But these are all relatively simple things to figure out if you put the time into it!!
.
🌀 in the video I show eye circles, it is the skill of a smooth pursuit (there are at least 16 different versions of smooth pursuit so I just showed one)
.
❤️ and you can see by the improvement in my range of motion that my brain really likes this exercise!!
.
👏 if you want to work through this— you will LOVE my workbook!! It teaches you how to assess/reassess and goes through ALL the cranial nerves with a video tutorial for each one.
.
💫 comment ‘workbook’ (no other words or emojis) and I’ll DM you a link!!

If my brain is capable of making me feel untethered, distrustful and rushed it can also make me feel grounded, secure and calm.

The Experiment by @sheinaraskin is for you if you are new to Somatics or if you have been practicing for years. You will not regret it. And for transparency if you get the experiment through my link, I get a chance to join Sheina’s inner world. And so can you! You won’t regret it. Link in my bio.

Richtiger Sound für meine Yoga Klassen war schon immer essenziell für mich. 🎶 Es wurde noch wichtiger, seitdem ich Somatics in meine Classes einfließen lasse.
Auf was achtest du, wenn du Sound in deinen Klassen verwendest? Verwendest du immer noch vorgefertigte Playlisten oder nutzt die, von anderen Lehrer*innen?
Warum Sound ebenso ein wichtiges Tool sein kann, dich authentisch als Lehrer*in zu zeigen erkläre ich dir am 28.07.26 📹
