Hallo <<First Name>>!
In the following text I want to explain how SOMATIC MOVEMENT online is not only healthy for our bodies, but can also help to balance the nervesystem and assist in the healing of small or big mental and emotional injuries.

When our needs are not met, or when we get emotionally injured from the outside we develop creative and individual patterns of survival. When these injuries are very big or ongoing for a long time and cannot be resolved our nerve system learns that this is the normal state of being and can even be primed to stay in this state of being. To secure our safety and survival we often use the extrem reactions of our outward and active nervesystem, the sympathetic nervesystem. These extem reaction of the sympathetic nerve system are described as ‘fight, flight, freeze or fawn’.

In addition it is possible that we also learned, in situations where we got injured, not to express our connected feelings as doing so can also be dangerous, so we learned to store them somewhere in our bodies.

Little outward things can trigger us into ‘fight, flight, freeze or fawn’ or into old stored emotions.
This is very stressful and exhausting and can cause physical ailments and mental suffering as well as difficulties in our relationships to other people in work and private life. These outward patterns work until they do not work anymore because of a change in the circumstances.

Inward sensing is changing our system from outward to inward, inward sensing is changing us from being in the symphatetic nerve system to being in the parasympathetic nervesystem.

Inward sensing can help us to come into resting and digesting and finding a safe and healing space.

In SOMATIC MOVEMENT online we sense our body from the inside with our proprioceptive sense, and we sense our movement from the inside with our kinestetic sense.

SOMATIC MOVEMENT online is also guiding us into feeling our old and new emotions and alows for direct expression of these emotions in movement. When we are allowed to feel and express our old stored emotions we do not need to hide and store them anymore in our bodies, we can free ourselfs from those emotions.

SOMATIC MOVEMENT online can help to balance the nervesystem and assist in the healing of small or big mental and emotional injuries.

SOMATIC MOVEMENT online is offered as open weekly class for every body.

These classes can serve as a personal practice as well as a foundation for the

BASIC SOMATIC TRAINING.

<<First Name>>, I hope to welcome you soon!

All the best
Dieter
