After the post about Sasha<\/a>, (thank you again for all your reactions), but before the tale about my internship with her, I wanted to write you about the body.\u00a0 Our body, keeper of our wounds (today\u2019s post), but also recipient of our pleasure (Friday\u2019s post.)<\/p>\n

We mentioned a few time my psycho corporal therapy without really doing a post dedicated it.\u00a0 So here it is.<\/p>\n

I started to see a therapist after a very painful break-up.\u00a0 I had been wanting to try for a long time, following a friend\u2019s recommendation, and then I was\u2026 perfectly ripened!<\/p>\n

The idea is that our emotions that aren\u2019t expressed are lodging themselves within our body (you are breaking my back!\u00a0 I am sick to my stomach! \u00a0Or my bleeding heart\u2026 etc.)\u00a0 Those emotions can exist, while being very old.\u00a0 They lodge themselves and continue to be active until you get them out.\u00a0 For example, you were dead scared of your dad and\/or mum, well, this fear is not just a bad memory written in the corner of the brain, it also gets recorded in your body.\u00a0 So later as an adult, if you have not gotten rid of all of it, this fear is activating itself constantly and sometimes for very little things (I don\u2019t know, like if you hurt yourself jumping in the water) and your body doesn\u2019t respond reasonably anymore, It\u2019s a real hassle, because the older it gets the more difficult it is to unlock them (logical).<\/p>\n

The body strength however is that it doesn\u2019t lie.\u00a0 The mind however\u2026 can deceive you.\u00a0 My friend convinced me with a simple example:\u00a0 he was supposed to visit someone.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, how do you feel?\u00a0 Are you all right?\u201d asked the therapist.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, yes I\u2019m fine\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOh yeah?\u00a0 Are you sure?\u00a0 Well, look at yourself\u201d the therapist tells him.<\/p>\n

And there my friend looks at himself and discovers his entire body, his hands, even his glance all knotted, a real box of knots!\u00a0 See what I mean?<\/p>\n

Consequently the sessions happens like that:<\/p>\n

You arrive and take off your clothes, you are physically and symbolically butt naked basically.<\/p>\n

Then you sit feet up on a medical bed (lifted), your feet straight out in the front of the therapist eyes.\u00a0 I don\u2019t know what he sees.\u00a0 It\u2019s like that and you talked about the why you are here today for about 10 minutes.<\/p>\n

You lay down and start breathing deeply, very deeply.\u00a0 So in my case and giving that I was in such a mess, I was already crying as soon as I laid down\u2026 HAHAHAHA \u201cwell it\u2019s all out already so it\u2019s going to be easy, we won\u2019t even have to really dig too deep.\u201d HAHAHAHA (yes, we can laugh about it now.)<\/p>\n

So actually, the pairing of this deep breathing and the sum of the stimuli sent by the therapist (the way of his speech, the fact that he presses here or there, scratches, strokes, etc.) influence your body to relax at the exact spot where the memory was locked-in.\u00a0 It can happen in the legs, the back, the ribs of course (I often had feelings\/ sense of pressure at this spot), cranium, etc.\u2026.<\/p>\n

And within this relaxation, there a whole bunch of energy that will circulate.\u00a0 So \u201c what is this energy\u201d they are asking me in my ear piece?!<\/p>\n

Well I don\u2019t know!\u00a0 However I can visualize very well how it can manifest themselves.<\/p>\n

It requires, a little bit like with meditation, a curious mind and to be present within the now.\u00a0 Sometimes it\u2019s the feeling of heat, cold, shivers, tingling, it can become very intense, sometimes contraction (it often happens that you cannot open your mouth or your hands), sometimes you scream, you cry, you hit.<\/p>\n

YES IT MUST LOOK LIKE THE EXORCIST\u2026 so what?!<\/p>\n

The goal is exactly to welcome whatever reaction happens.\u00a0 You are within yourself so it doesn\u2019t really matter what you look like.<\/p>\n

Hello let go!<\/p>\n

It last about 30 minutes and after he \u201cshuts\u201d it all down and lets you recuperate for 15 minutes.\u00a0 And then\u2026 it\u2019s all gentleness.<\/p>\n

Your body is silent and I could feel it, at the end of each session, I could feel it \u201cclean\u201d as if session after session I was washing this body.<\/p>\n

I needed to talk about this before telling you about the tantric weekend! \u00a0I hope this inspires you and I await your reactions. \u00a0I won\u2019t share the contact of my therapist because I find it to be too intimate but maybe some of you will have contacts.\u00a0I also want to share that around me a lot of people love it\u2026 but not everyone.\u00a0 You must then take this like a personal message.<\/p>\n

Thousands of kisses.<\/p>\n
