Eagle Creek Ranch Recovery has seen incredible progress in their clients recovery by adding Somatic Breathwork to their program.
Somatic Breathwork has allowed clients in recovery to tap into the root cause of their illness without using words. It allows them to clearly see and feel where they are holding past trauma and stress while giving them the opportunity to physically release it. By letting go on a nervous system level, it frees clients of the mental and emotional pain they were numbing with substances.
Unlike top-down therapy, which is intellectually understood, Somatic Breathwork is a bottom-up approach where clients can feel their way into the areas of their bodies where they are holding the pain.
Through Somatic Breathwork, clients can feel, identify, and process trauma and stress from the past through expression. These events are often what caused the pain that drove them to addiction in the first place. Somatic Breathwork is a powerful way to help clients start to heal at the root of the issues.
“Not why the addiction, but why the pain” - Gabor Mate
Somatic Breathwork doesn’t require the client to talk about what he/she thinks the issues are. It allows the client to feel where the pain is stuck in their body and let it go.
This has proven to be a great modality to help clients open up on their own - allowing other top-down therapies to be more easily received in their healing process.
