Living in a new country felt like an invitation to re-engage with myself. New people. Sunshine. A different culture, and way of life. My curiosity came back online, and with it, a willingness to confront my fear of life rather than remain protected from it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/0068d111-f8a0-4a2f-b0a8-737b7f38c043/hands+holding+globe.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - What Are You Leaving Behind & What Are You Moving Towards? I was moving towards space, warmth, curiosity, language, architecture, people, and a deeper healing journey. Sunshine was part of that. So was novelty. Whi;e processing what was held inthe nervous system it learned that change didn’t mean danger. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/b88bc56c-b01e-43ad-bf54-828b05d35eb6/butterfly+morphis.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - What Are You Leaving Behind & What Are You Moving Towards?

Strangely, being with the anxiety—even as tough as it was—felt easier than facing the fear of actually taking action. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/ffcd096e-e20d-4f5c-8dcb-0c0a9c9a6dbf/feet+and+grounding.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - Moving Country & the Hidden Overwhelm: A Somatic Guide for Expats and Digital Nomads - I had been to talk therapy, and while it helped me understand why I felt the way I did, something essential was missing: calm coherence in my body. Talking therapies don’t directly address what’s happening in the nervous system. When the body doesn’t feel safe, insight alone isn’t enough to regulate overwhelm. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/817beb87-2f92-412b-ae2f-6a1b748b93c3/expat+organising+self+with+suitcase+and+things+to+do.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - Moving Country & the Hidden Overwhelm: A Somatic Guide for Expats and Digital Nomads Many expats live in a state of functional survival mode: Navigating bureaucracy in a second or third language Rebuilding social connections from scratch Holding cultural micro-stressors every day Balancing work performance with personal instability https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/4ff240e4-bc91-4848-b92b-e8c62030a8fc/person+in+doorway+looking+out+into+landscape.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - Moving Country & the Hidden Overwhelm: A Somatic Guide for Expats and Digital Nomads Until these questions are answered at a felt, bodily level, the sense of overwhelm often remains—even if logically everything is fine. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/1b7b31f9-b853-4514-b1dc-0ad9fd152140/railway+station+and+sunset.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - Moving Country & the Hidden Overwhelm: A Somatic Guide for Expats and Digital Nomads Sessions are especially helpful if you: Have moved country recently (or multiple times) or will do soon Live between cultures or identities Feel emotionally disconnected despite external success Want deeper integration, not just coping strategies https://www.soulsomatictherapy.com/blog-elixir-the-soma-experience/2025/12/28/intergenerational-trauma-somatic-healing monthly 0.5 2026-01-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/3618868f-f665-4142-8f45-3253893322c1/intergenrational+trauma+roots.jpeg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - Intergenerational Trauma Explained: Signs, Science & How to Heal Through Somatic Therapy - Intergenerational Trauma Healing Through Somatic Therapy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/e7fa223d-b3d9-4f38-a8a1-9442ae3d5036/Indigenous+generations+weaving.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - Intergenerational Trauma Explained: Signs, Science & How to Heal Through Somatic Therapy This wisdom holds that: healing is communal the earth is an ancestor we are shaped by those before us and we shape those who will follow Indigenous teachers often say trauma “takes your breath” or leaves a dark spot. breath, somatic experiencing, and presence work all help restore that lost life force. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/94b7aed2-9744-4c2c-b412-1a41a8548e64/Intergenrational+trauma+helping+hand.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - Intergenerational Trauma Explained: Signs, Science & How to Heal Through Somatic Therapy - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.soulsomatictherapy.com/blog-elixir-the-soma-experience/whats-the-difference-between-cbt-and-somatic-therapy monthly 0.5 2025-04-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/cf8c4827-8512-4c40-a1f9-60c0f59c2c37/CBT+and+somatic+therapies.jpeg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - What's the difference between CBT and somatic therapy? elixir /ɪˈlɪksɪə,ɪˈlɪksə/ || The Soma Experience || noun A magical or medicinal potion that heals or cures https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/ecf0ba9f-dda1-4833-8821-f3166cb70ac6/CBT+process.jpeg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - What's the difference between CBT and somatic therapy? CBT is the most commonly prescribed therapy through the public health system, partly because it is older, and is known as evidence based. CBT can be effective for managing anxiety, and mild to moderate depression. However, CBT is not so effective for individuals who have experienced trauma or have complex trauma because it does not change the infrastructure of the nervous system and brain connections to deal with the fight, flight, freeze responses. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/060efd49-87a3-4935-9f6b-97823f07b80b/somatic+group+arm+holding.jpeg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - What's the difference between CBT and somatic therapy? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.soulsomatictherapy.com/blog-elixir-the-soma-experience/the-role-of-the-body-in-trauma monthly 0.5 2025-04-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/e69a1bb1-f140-476c-9158-ae2848d18e0d/mind+body+connection+meditation.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - The Role of the Body in Trauma elixir /ɪˈlɪksɪə,ɪˈlɪksə/ || The Soma Experience || noun A magical or medicinal potion that heals or cures https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/1744736798526-GSOIWL82EFTC04Y13MY9/unsplash-image-eCEj-BR91xQ.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - The Role of the Body in Trauma Deep into my healing journey, a senior member of Dr Gabor Maté’s team said that Gabor recommended Somatic Experiencing as a good healing modality to learn because I would make a good therapist given my trauma story. So I thought I would take some sessions to understand what it was about. As I stood in the spacious therapy room she asked that I connect to my body before deciding where to sit, and I thought what for? What does the body have to do with my trauma? I thought I was meant to talk about it all. But apparently not. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/c77b5f77-7ed7-463a-ba71-f9f91d0dc1b5/mind+body+connection+bowls.jpg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - The Role of the Body in Trauma - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.soulsomatictherapy.com/blog-elixir-the-soma-experience/what-is-trauma monthly 0.5 2025-04-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/f349801c-bb0a-4f6e-a1eb-c73797a1521f/trauma-eruption.jpeg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - What is trauma? elixir /ɪˈlɪksɪə,ɪˈlɪksə/ || The Soma Experience || noun A magical or medicinal potion that heals or cures https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/c52f0873-2866-4ff7-9323-288e65be4d8e/trauma-lava.jpeg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - What is trauma? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/e5fb886c-b44a-44b2-84bb-d2b1a7906be8/healing-from-trauma.jpeg Elixir || The Soma Experience || - What is trauma? - Ways to help with your trauma There are many things you can do to help heal your trauma, and this is not a comprehensive list: Ground yourself. Feel the sensation of your feet against the ground, and notice your body weight. This will help move away from the mental thoughts and into your body. Talk to someone you trust if you feel lonely and isolated. This may be a friend, relative, or a specialist like a therapist. But keep the talking manageable, you do not want to go into too much talking and be stuck in the cycle, this can re-traumatise. Listen to the body like focusing on the sensations that bring in and out the breath. Connect with nature. Become present to the sounds and sights around you in the park, there are many ways that nature can help calm you, and just going for a walk and moving your body will help. https://www.soulsomatictherapy.com/resources daily 0.75 2025-06-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/b1b87b75-6ca4-4852-9962-ec8a878c401f/Gabor_Mate%CC%81_-_01_%28cropped%29.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/414c36b9-f269-4d82-b2ce-31a9610d0c8c/pexels-minan1398-1234035.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/f3f0b9c8-6c42-4084-a758-fb4bfc4dbba8/Ergos%2BLogo__clear_2020.jpg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/28adb623-41e4-4704-9f60-fc5f408aa22e/FT-Bessel-van-der-kolk-when-trauma-becomes-your-identity-thats-a-dangerous-thing.jpeg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/f1afa6b5-8e3b-41bb-a30a-be71499db37a/Guardian-nervous-system+disregulation.jpeg Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/f3d7ff37-5a9c-45f8-942a-603873ac6933/AdobeStock_426007758.jpeg Resources https://www.soulsomatictherapy.com/home daily 1.0 2026-03-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/1705573939970-G5XPLJQRA6DI7WF2OKEL/2B9A4779-2.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1615225337376-36JM1AX4C0NIC32WNXXU/Rectangle+26.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1615225123989-3AGGEWNOKB8XK6YRH6A9/Rectangle+25.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1615225350677-B3YBA0I530Q8W9125BX3/Rectangle+27.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1615225322403-8M32U1NK41JYCCJQCWP7/Rectangle+25.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/9adfe795-c73a-4515-9d30-5e8fde91aa62/somatic-therapy-uk.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/360f0996-e166-44df-b8b4-7d883134ebfb/pexels-umkreisel-app-1459495.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/626c5b36-978a-4f5c-aee0-e220516af58f/unsplash-image-cuKKa0vWZSY+copy.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/7017a00d-ef13-4240-9f62-cf4eba87550f/AdobeStock_463665780.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/05b2da7d-d7a4-417d-b2cd-3d5563afd135/AdobeStock_279088852.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/68a5d2b6-8c61-436c-aeac-6e44a6f79143/IMG_7443.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/4e1a4a72-5b5c-47fa-8ec6-42071d0f851d/emma-simpson-mNGaaLeWEp0-unsplash.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/0a46af00-18be-406f-9603-fefc97e10dda/imgg-demo-hNKPmLKj.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5b7c0b78fcf7fd913d0dc751/68a5d2b6-8c61-436c-aeac-6e44a6f79143/IMG_7443.jpg Home - Wholeness Recovery Already Inside You You can heal.
