Holding Space for Numbness After Sexual Trauma | Somatic Healing for Neurodivergent Women
Description
We slow everything down and meet numbness with respect, treating it as a protective boundary rather than proof we are broken. I explain the freeze response, offer body-based practices to build safety, and end with a guided sanctuary meditation where numbness is welcome.
In this Epi:
• reframing emotional numbness as a biological gift
• understanding freeze response and why the body shuts down
• practicing supportive touch to create a bridge back to the body
• speaking to the inner protector part with gratitude and clear promises
• using practical tools like a no decision hour and warmth
• trying a thank you journal when feelings are unavailable
• setting boundaries with social media to protect peace
• grounding in safety first and seeking help when needed
