In this episode of "Good Enough with the Trauma Therapist,"  Jamie Vollmoeller, interviews somatic experiencing practitioner Sarah Kleiner. Sarah discusses trauma resolution through the nervous system. She explains how trauma affects the body, signs of a deregulated nervous system, and techniques like movement, breathwork, and visualization to help individuals transition from hyperarousal (high stress) or hypoarousal (numbness) to a balanced state. The conversation covers the impact of parents' emotional states on children, the significance of addressing early childhood experiences, and the importance of self-care and recognizing personal needs to break generational patterns of stress and neglect.

Bullet Points: 

• Understanding somatic experiencing as a method for trauma resolution through the nervous system.
• The body's response to trauma and its effects on emotional and physical health.
• Signs of a deregulated nervous system include anxiety, chronic pain, and depression.
• Differentiating between hyperarousal (high stress) and hyperarousal (numbness) states.
• Techniques used in somatic experiencing include movement, breathwork, and visualization.
• The importance of co-regulation and support from practitioners during emotional processing.
• The concept of being "okay enough" in managing anxiety and emotional challenges.
• Recognizing and addressing early childhood experiences that shape the nervous system.
• The impact of parental emotional states on children and the dynamics of caregiving.
• The significance of self-care and expressing personal needs, particularly for women in a caregiving role
