It was 7pm on the 10 freeway, four nights before Christmas. My car was hit by one of two cars that were racing. One of the witnesses THINKS the car that hit me was red. It was going that fast!
My car flipped end over end, rolled (at least twice?) across three lanes of traffic, and slid on the driver's door for a couple of hundred feet before crashing into a concrete embankment.
And, all of it was just for me. No other cars were involved and the car that hit me kept going! read more...

Somatic Experiencing® (SE) is a short-term, naturalistic approach, developed by Dr. Peter Levine, to renegotiate and heal both shock and developmental trauma.
Stress and trauma occur in the body, not in the event, as they are the body's reactions to "threatening experiences." Read more about SE...
A Somatic Experiencing session is similar to traditional "talk" therapy (for lack of a better term), except that the focus is on the biology rather than the biography. Talk therapy works more with the higher brain (rational mind), while SE focuses on the lower brain survival (instinct) responses, the autonomic nervous system, and the "felt" sense.
SE is an experiential process, including learning new skill-sets to counteract stress, anxiety, P.T.S.D., panic attacks, negative mental chatter, self-sabotage, disorientation, dissociation, disconnection, etc. The, fore mentioned, skill-sets, help to recondition and reinstate orienting responses, grounding, centering, boundaries, a sense of connection, empowerment, safety, healthy aggression and joyfulness.
