What is Somatic Experiencing®?
Unlike other trauma healing modalities, Somatic Experiencing® focuses on the sensations you are experiencing, not the story or event you may replay or retell over and over again in traditional talk therapy.
Somatic Experiencing® takes you out of your head and into your body, reconnecting you to your body’s innate wisdom. SE helps you heal your nervous system, change deeply ingrained survival patterns that are keeping you stuck and resolve symptoms of stress, shock and trauma that are trapped in your body and nervous system.
What Is Good Mental Health?
What is good mental health?
In short, good mental health is the ability to thrive regardless of circumstance. Good mental health is the foundation for thinking and communication skills, learning, emotional growth, resilience and self-esteem.
Good mental health allows you to thrive versus simply survive.
It isn’t about avoiding problems or having the ‘perfect’ life. Good mental health allows you to get back up and persevere through normal life difficulties and challenges. Some refer to it as mental strength or mental toughness, but it’s simply good mental health. Good mental health is the key to our overall well-being.
