Practices that may help
- The Body Keeps the Score, Honestly Explained
Bessel van der Kolk’s core claim is that overwhelming experience is registered in the body and nervous system — not just as a memory but as ongoing physiological dysregulation — so calming the body ("bottom-up") can be as important as talking ("top-down"). The broad insight that trauma shows up physiologically is well supported; some of the book’s specific claims and favored therapies are more debated than the book’s certainty suggests. These are self-regulation skills, not a substitute for trauma treatment. - Practice noticing what your body is doing
Build the skill of sensing internal signals — tension, heart rate, breath — without being hijacked by them.
The Body Keeps the Score, Honestly Explained - Regulate the body before you process the story
When you are activated, settle the body first — insight cannot land on a flooded nervous system.

Use the senses and the room to signal "that was then, this is now" when memory floods the body.
The Body Keeps the Score, Honestly Explained - Read bodily signals as information
Treat tension, energy dips, and gut feelings as data about needs and emotions, not just noise.
Interoception, Explained - Move and use rhythm to shift state
Walking, swaying, drumming, dancing — rhythmic, whole-body movement to discharge and reset arousal.
The Body Keeps the Score, Honestly Explained - Recover and recharge after intense emotion
After an emotional peak, deliberately allow recovery time — intense arousal depletes resources.
The 90-Second Rule, Made Practical - Track body sensation (the felt sense)
Follow raw physical sensation with curiosity — tingling, warmth, pressure — rather than the storyline.
Somatic Experiencing, Honestly Explained - Build rhythmic oscillation between stress and recovery
High performance is not sustained effort — it is deliberate alternation between full engagement and full recovery.
