Grounding for Disassociation | Trauma Informed Yoga

[@Edward_Adams]

After this practice I feel a sense of warm and control in my body in contrast when I got really scared when I froze. Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for this, been struggling with dissociation for the past week, this helped ground me.

I'm grateful it was helpful, Ezra. :)

Amazing. Thank you so much Hannah! I have had a lovely day today, but have been go go go - lots of creative ideas coming through and lots of fun work happening. However, this left me a bit frazzled and overstimulated, bordering on anxious. This exercise has helped me drop right back into my body. Thank you 💜

Amazing video ! Been using this after stressful days, after intense workouts and before bed. And definitely notice a major difference in my breathing and calming down after my anxiety gets the best of me or when I notice I freeze.

[@Edward_Adams]

Thank you so much for this class! I really liked it, especially the invitational style of it in contrast to classic yoga. It really was beneficial for me after an episode of freezing and dissociation.

thank you for this video 🤍

What are some of the ways that you ground yourself out in the world in the chaos? For me I know that what we teach in the studio space is so important and that when people really need the grounding is out in the world. I would love to know more about how you ground when not in the studio. Thank you for always sharing such incredible practices. I appreciate how slow and soft you always are.

[@zeal09]

but why do we dissociate? I suddenly start dissociating a lot...and the feeling is literally scarry

[@HannahUiri]

Hi Monica, disassociation is a nervous system response within the parasympathetic nervous system. Your nervous system is tying to keep you safe.

Great video I used it for my wife and myself during her disassociation. It made her cry afterwards, I was just wondering why that could be?

[@HannahUiri]

Hi Kyle, I'm so glad this video supported your wife. Disassociation can occur when the nervous system down regulates and enters into what's known as "fold." There's other states to the nervous system, with the most popular ones being fight, flight, freeze. When we come out of the fold or freeze state, it's normal to cry or shake. It's a good sign! It means that the nervous system is regulating. I hope this helps! 💛

[@choclatetacos789]

@@HannahUiri this does help however we are still a long way until she fully comes back to reality. We will continue to use your videos, grounding techniques, and therapy until she snaps out of it. Thank you so much!

[@HannahUiri]

@@choclatetacos789 Completely understandable. I lived with disassociation for a long time and it definitely took me time to ease out of it. I wish you and your wife health and healing. 🤎

[@choclatetacos789]

@@HannahUiri thank you!

[@DanielMatotek]

@@HannahUiri Wow pretty amazing that you had dissociation and healed. Wonderful to hear, I am living with it at the moment and your videos help a lot. Going through a rough patch at the moment, it's encouraging to hear when people heal from dissociation because when you're in it, it feels like it will be forever.
