@shesninaalexander: @Upgraded Us #somatichealing #somatictherapy #somaticexperiencing #ptsdrecovery #morningroutineaesthetic Somatic exercise is a form of gentle, mindful movement that focuses on the connection between your brain, nervous system, and body. Instead of exercising to burn calories or build muscle, you're moving to release tension, improve body awareness, and help regulate your nervous system. The word somatic means “relating to the body,” particularly how you experience sensations from within. What are the benefits? Somatic exercises may help with: Chronic muscle tension: Relaxing tight shoulders, neck, jaw, hips, and back. Stress and anxiety: Encouraging the body to shift away from a heightened state of alertness. Nervous system regulation: Practicing awareness of physical sensations and responding to them calmly. Chronic pain: Improving movement patterns and reducing protective muscle guarding. Sleep: Helping the body unwind before bedtime. Body awareness: Recognizing where you unconsciously hold tension. Research is promising for some mind-body movement approaches, but evidence for many specific somatic exercise programs is still limited.
