Like, and I'm here and there's something to sort of focus on and feel a foot on the earth.
And that person gets to that place of finally
And it's almost like a natural response, right?
It's not even this sort of intellectualized choice that the individual makes.
It's just when their body discharges.
I think I look at it in the idea of discharging a danger response, right?
That's what that manifestation is for the individual in the body.
It's a response to danger, even if that danger is sort of
created in the mind of my narrative of what's going on.
And maybe it's actually very different what's actually happening.
But in my own mind, I've created this idea that I'm in danger.
And so I have fear and I have anxiety, I have overwhelm.
And before I've even built that on a cognitive intellectual level, I'm just having a physiological response.
So it's actually a physiological reaction where I don't even have control over that.
And so how in my attempts to help someone co-regulate and for me co-regulating with them is providing that opportunity to discharge the response to danger that I'm having.
Absolutely.
And, you know, Peter Levine, an author and researcher and someone that talks so much about this type of stuff, he would say it's essential, in fact, because if we don't move through that, we actually store that trauma in the body.
So the next time I sort of have a similar experience and that all wells up, it's as if I didn't break any of it up previously and I didn't move through it.
And so it's just right there fresh and sort of reignited really quickly.
And so he talks about this need to really discharge this physiological response to danger in order to really transcend it and really move through it and not have it resurface sort of in the same ways like time and time and time again.
