Where Are You | Yoga for Dissociation | Depersonalization and Derealization | Our Echo Yoga

[@ciaputter7462]

I honestly started weeping when you said to come into your body. It’s almost too difficult to exist within myself

[@_ourecho_]

Oh my love I feel you. I’ve been there many times. Slowy slowly find your way back home.

[@jenb7756]

Yes! You belong here! I've been focusing on my sacral energy but it's not easy. Definitely soe emotional release for me oo

[@Dais_Do]

Thank you for creating this resource for DPDR. I feel I will come back again and again to use. X

[@_ourecho_]

That makes me happy to hear

[@hgaw08]

Wow. I often dont realize that i am routinely operating from a place of dissociation and depersonalization just to feel like i can get through my days. This is my first realization that both are my baseline as i move through the days and that both can be happening at the same time. Every affirmation spoken with touching the different parts of the body was like slowly cracking open a shell. 😔😩🥺😭 thank you💗 thank you💗

[@_ourecho_]

Let it crack you open and heal those parts.

[@hgaw08]

3rd day in a row doing this because I find it so beautiful and helpful- I officially have your song stuck in my head lol

[@gailbeacham1124]

Thank you my sister Echo for turning your own difficulties into something to support and heal others. In the past year you Trauma to Tantra and words and practices have helped me hugely. I am so grateful you have touched my heart.

[@_ourecho_]

I just wish someone had been there for me. I’m so happy to be there for others.

[@ladyspellbreaker1313]

Thank you so much for this SiStar. You’re helping more people than You realize. My psychologist is impressed with this yoga. I’m here in my body. I am safe. Much love and many blessings to You all.

[@_ourecho_]

Absolutely my love. I am so happy to be of use.

[@carlapoch4177]

Overwhelmingly overstimulated: I'm an HSP and THIS is how I feel working in an office 5 days a week. This is just what I needed today, thank you! ❤

[@patriziac.a.8644]

As you enter the silence, May your heart open wide, your body melt and your whole being expand in the joy of being alive. Thanks Echo for all you bring into the world. Blessings 😘

[@_ourecho_]

Thank you so much for that sweet blessing

[@devonzandoli4182]

This was sooo helpful! I dissociate if I have any chance to sit and think without being distracted. I’m in therapy, but like you quoted,”No one is coming to save you.” I have yoga, but it’s not always practical in the field😌. I really like the signature home scent idea. Thank you for being open about your struggles, and providing pathways for people that share them. You are cool 👍.

[@_ourecho_]

Absolutely and thank you for reminding me my own home scent, I’m needing it right now.

[@hijadevenuszz]

When you started to sing I was so emotional.. what I felt was, what a beauty of the human being, what a beauty of heart she has, what a beauty that in reality we are love... Thank you, I speak Spanish and it became even closer to me. You are light and your service is wonderful here on earth.

[@Champsgal]

Thank you thank you thank you! I feel so grateful to have come across your channel. It has completely shifted things for me in a positive - so much so I am planning on taking your teacher training in the future. Practices like this have been monumental when it comes to me healing and relearning how to live with anxiety and depression. Thank you for sharing - you are a gifted teacher.

[@_ourecho_]

[@_ourecho_]

So happy that you enjoyed it

[@annzoo]

Thank you so much for this amazing video! I was really overwhelmed lately and I decided to do some yoga at my free time. The movement were absolutely easy to follow along with spectacular results! I was yawning so many times and even cried with a little joy dance at the end, it’s a wonderful song! Once again, thank you so much Echo. Sending much love and hugs ❤❤

Thank you so much Echo. I needed this so completely and when I went to your channel to try to make myself do something and saw the title my jaw dropped. How do you have a practice for so many complex issues, you are truly amazing and such a gift. I’m so grateful to you 🙏✨🙏 Sending you so much gratitude, peace and love 💖

[@_ourecho_]

I am so happy you found this. For me its been a life long journey moving through these issues for myself so I am so happy to share.

[@thatoneginger77]

this has been really hard for me, i just started highschool and my best friend was diagnosed with terminal cancer. I’ve had dissociation for the past four months and it’s so hard to explain to anyone i just need a hug. one that i can actually feel

[@_ourecho_]

@@thatoneginger77 oh my love this is so deep and vulnerable. I am praying for that for you

[@thatoneginger77]

@@_ourecho_ thank you. do you have any more grounding tips? its almost as if i can feel nothing

[@ulrikeschuster3074]

This helped a lot - thank you dear

[@_ourecho_]

I am so happy to hear this.

[@Tricia_JoElle]

I came to see how hard the yoga poses are, not being nimble. I'm a former yoga drop out. LOL! I started reading the posts and all of the great healing that is occurring. I quickly shut down in terror. Yes, that surprised me. I've been "out of body for decades. I've used "healing", bad relationships, poverty, many car accidents (they hit me, even when sitting still!), and homelessness to keep out of body. It's all I know. So, a week has passed... and I'm more out of body than ever. Part of me says "DO IT! START LIVING!" and the other part of me says "OMG! I can't breathe. I'm terrified of that!". So I sit... and sit... and sit. Stuck between daily distractions, and releasing it. "Nobody's coming to save you." That hit home. I'm 65 in a week. I'm scared of living, and scared of dieing with unlived life. (Breathe Breathe Breathe....)

[@haleyjohnston3576]

Thank you 🙏🏻 medicine recieved ❤

[@_ourecho_]

I happy to hear that

[@vedinvalentinapo]

I am highly sensitive and highly traumatized and feeling very very appreaciative for you and this practice ❤❤❤ i love your work so much i only you could sometimes mention its okay if we cant do what you do because my body is not able 😢

[@_ourecho_]

It’s important to do what is possible and to let go of what is not. This is meant to be your practice. Everything I offer is an invitation.

[@laurenmclachlan7863]

Thank you so much, this is a wonderful practice. I’m a yoga teacher myself but struggle with disassociation, and this has really helped. 🙏❤️

[@_ourecho_]

May we all come out of freeze and disociation day by day better and better

[@rubyx8917]

I have never done yoga in my life and the reason why I searched yoga because I’ve been dissociated for a really long time and this is the first time it get this far or this intense. In my teenage years I used to get dissociated but it eventually goes away. My childhood, teenager years and now adulthood the factor that is making me live trauma after trauma is still present which is my mother. To be honest I liked feeling dissociated at first because I was going through some hard situations and I couldn’t feel a thing and I liked it because I felt like I was being protected by my mind and that anything could happen and it won’t affect me cuz i don’t even know what I am as if this is an alternative reality like nothing is real and everything happening doesn’t have a meaning you know what I mean ? But now I’ve gotten to a point where I start panicking sometimes like I’m losing my mind like all of a sudden I’m thinking what is this what is happening and who are these people it’s honestly terrifying but I try to calm myself and I thought it would go away eventually like it used to be but it’s been over 10 months and if anything it’s getting worse. I still believe that in order to get better (mentally) I need to be in an environment that is healthy and safe , not overwhelming , traumatizing and stressful. But I need to do something or I might go insane :( Is yoga helpful in my situation or do I need professional help which I know I do but right now it’s not possible

[@yoga_iaini]

Hi, yoga is helpful. Any practice that helps you connect to your body and the present moment and make you feel safe. If you can find/create safe spaces and moments daily, you are sending signals to your body and mind that help to reduce the stress and anxiety that is keeping the dpdr active. Dpdr is a survival mechanism, like an emotional or psychological airbag. If you cannot change the environment/circumstances that are triggering your dpdr right now, yoga is a good start. Being aware of the causes of your dpdr it is also good and maybe you can try an affordable online therapy like Better Help or something like that... Best of wishes ❤

[@someone4379]

Thank you ❤❤❤

[@_ourecho_]

You are so welcome

[@mellifluouswriting]

Wow this was really challenging but healing, and I learned a lot.

[@_ourecho_]

So happy to hear that. And mellifluous is one of my very favorite words.

[@mariaasvesta7920]

You are amazing

[@_ourecho_]

Thank you love

[@matthewspears3786]

I wanted to voice my appreciation for the subtle things, because most yoga videos do not have them and make me feel uncomfortable. 1) Your voice is natural and relaxed. Most teachers have a positive sounding, semi-hypnotic yoga voice, which is not natural. A natural voice is associated with natural, uncontrolled breathing, encourages others to find their own unique way of breathing and speaking appropriate for their body. Unnatural voices encourage imitation and conformity, which as Krishnamuthi mentions is a form of inner violence. 2) It's clear from all your movements you're doing this for you first because it helps you, and you're inviting others into your life. You're not selling anything, even the identity that you're a yogini. 3) I have to say the simply decor of a rented room in India adds to it. I've been in Rishikesh a couple times though my favorite is Tiruvannamalai in the south. I've noticed Yoga in India when it's not part of a hierarchical yoga organization subtly affects everything, because it IS intrinsically intertwined with meditation there, not fitness/self improvement. I've studied voice in acting which was actually amazingly transformative - some parts of it were doing movements like yoga but making open sounds so that awareness is brought to speaking from the whole body and from the depths of the diapragm, at a natural pace. Wish that was more common to non-actors. Thank you!
