The Body Keeps the Score!
Trauma leaves us in fragmented pieces. When we experience trauma or when we are in hyper arousal, the amygdala (our fear and emotional bran center), gets a hit of increased blood supply. On the contrary, the prefrontal cortex (our center of present moment consciousness) becomes deprived of oxygen and glucose. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When we get stuck in the fragmented emotions of our past traumas, we can unconsciously shove them down into our physical bodies...we can lodge them into our organs...we can create pain within our soma. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

There are psycho-emotional connections to every body part and every organ. It is up to you to question and research and go in deep within yourself to find the answers. The BODY KEEPS THE SCORE! ⠀⠀
