From Dissonant, Dissociative, Disembodiment towards Embodied Coherence

​

​​

A dissonant experience is a clash or lack of harmony between different events, behaviors, feelings, thoughts or perceptions, often resulting in uncomfortable anxiety, fearful rumination, difficult sensations, compulsive behaviours, and unexplained physical tension or pain. 

​​​

Dissonant experiences can be the result of unprocessed stored traumatic- stress-responses getting activated (triggered) in the body. 

​​

These experiences are often difficult to self-regulate, and they can create further complications such as inflammatory responses, chronic pain, mental health deterioration, addiction, burnout, difficult relationship triggers and dynamics, among many other challenges.
​

Embodying Coherence is the process of inquiring into these dissonant experiences, building practices to gain awareness into their psychosomatic nature, and integrating the experience gradually and with ease into our conscious embodied capacity to self-regulate...

​

With practice and guidance our self-regulating capacity increases and our our nervous systems become more loving towards ourselves and others, being able to gradually open to life more joyfully.
