-- Somatic Meditation To Release Trauma Stored In The Body --
Maybe you’ve tried guided meditation in the past, but found yourself getting restless and bored.
This somatic meditation to release trauma stored in the body focuses on releasing emotions stored in the muscles rather than in your head.
The fact is that stress and trauma are stored in your nervous system -- not just your conscious mind.
And while therapy for trauma can yield many profound insights, true trauma healing has to incorporate your body for lasting, long term relief.
If you typically dislike meditation, find it difficult to sit still and focus or get bored easily, give somatic meditation a try.
Those restless feelings are often related to activation in your sympathetic nervous system -- your stress response, also known as “fight or flight.”
When we tap into sensory awareness through somatic meditation, your body is able to discharge the impulse to run, which in turn calms your mind and body.
The result is less pain, stress and tension overall. Trauma symptoms such as anxiety, depression, fatigue and low motivation often diminish as well.
So check out this somatic meditation to release trauma stored in the body and let me know how it goes for you.
Remember, bringing your body out of a trauma state is a practice -- not a one and done kind of thing. So the more often you implement this guided meditation, the deeper your healing will be.

How did this meditation go for you? Let me know your experience in the comments below.
Please see my comment below, as I love this meditation. The only thing is that I find the music, crickets and bird sounds highly distracting and annoying. Thanks.
Can’t hear things around me because of the background sounds in the video.... it would be better to have no such accompanying audio!
I really like the sound track with the birds and crickets. Could you please post a link. It was very relaxing and uplifting at the same time.
This seems like a wonderful meditation, but I can’t do it because of the multiple sounds in addition to your voice. Music, birds, crickets… It’s way too overstimulating. Do you have a version with just your voice? That would be amazing. Or maybe just your voice and the background music which sounds very soothing.
I loved it.
wow i didn’t expect just straight tears the whole time. i didn’t realize how afraid i was of my own bedroom even though there’s actually no active threat
Can totally relate, think I've been in it too long.
💕
Big hugs for you.

Every time I do this meditation I cry. It’s almost as if I get transported to being 10 again, playing in my room with dolls as the sun shines on my skin, not a care or worry in the world. Just being in the present moment. I wish life could feel that way all the time. Growing up is so hard. Maybe if I keep practicing I can achieve that feeling constantly in my adult life. Either way, thank you for this video. ♥️
Growing up is so hard - thank God for our healers and teachers.
I cried too, wow it was a deep cry, haven’t done that in years
When i first started meditating i would tears would burst out of nowhere for the 1st 10 times or so. Probably bottled up emotions over 30yrs of being a "tough guy" after years of meditating now, I've pretty much worked through all that stuff, now all I have to deal with is the little annoyances that got lodged from that day. I've also experienced vivid weird feelings from being a child. Meditation is so interesting
keep going, it will get even better i promise!! you are strong and peace is within you!
I had that same scenario and know that feeling you're describing. Let's get it back again! 💜
This is becoming a daily video for my recovery. I find mindfulness meditation to be difficult because it often causes me to have anxiety. This does not... More of this please!
I started crying, bc for the first time in two years I had some relief from the ache inside of me. Thank you so much, I will be repeating your meditations❤️
And me ❤
Therapy is extremely important.
I first did this meditation at work.
I closed my eyes immediately and was upset when you said to keep them open 😭 I noticed it was because I didn’t want to be where I was so looking around there was nothing I wanted to look at except this one spot on the wall that had the color gold on it. I stared at that spot. I cried when I realized I didn’t want to be there and just wanted to go home. And then when I came into the body more I noticed I was judging you 😅 Sukie but it was because I was so uncomfortable in my body. I continued with the meditation and followed your guide when you said to move the attention away from the area of tension in the body. I ended up feeling so much better at the end, eyesight cleared up. I loved it and your voice, thank you so much! I subscribed to your channel. I’m so glad I found you.
Success: This is the third time I've done this meditation but the first time I was able to back away from my PTSD cramping by focusing on my goofy Christmas Bird-Elf's red hat on the windowsill.. Suddenly, I was in the present and that contrast was astounding! Thank you, Sukie.
J Knell next day- I had problems with the listening phase due to ear ringing but when I tried to listen with both ears simultaneously, I began to shake from top to bottom. Hmm, a clue?
@@jknell5031 did you feel better after? perhaps some trapped trauma was being released from your body?
My first time doing a sensory meditation & I can def say I love closing my eyes because it take la away any threat I feel there is but this video helped me to understand that I need to get more in tune with my environment. I need to understand that I am safe.
Thank you.
I'm so happy and blessed to have stumbled upon you. You have an unparalleled understanding of the connection between my trauma and the ailing body I've been struggling with for nearly a year now, something over a dozen doctors simply termed as anxiety-induced and moved on. This meditation helped abate the sense of powerlessness I've been feeling - my aching chest and my erratic heartbeat tend to suck my attention inward completely, leaving me hurtling down a circular, anxious path, and making my muscles even more tense. God bless you and your wisdom!
Hi Saniya, I'm glad you found your way here. I hope you find some support for your healing journey through these videos. Big hugs 🤗
Very well said!!
I tried your vagus nerve exercise video first, then this one, and seriously I have come back. It's been about 4 months since I was last present. Even if it does not last, this is such a blessing. I will do this again. Thank you. Sharing with others. 🙏❤️🙏
Thats exactly how i feel right now
same, felt like i remembered who i used to be and how i used to feel
@@iamthepinkylifter get back to being yourself :-)
Same. I love this therapist. God bless her.
This is the best meditation I have ever done. I had suppressed so much of my trauma and really struggle to process my emotions sometimes. I haven’t cried in years and this video gently triggered a much needed release of emotions, which resulted in crying. Thank you so much ❤
Felt sense of safety in the body ... there it is. Thank you
I lost my daughter to suicide a little over three years ago. The trauma of finding her in the way we did has weighed heavily on my life. It wasn’t until hearing you explain today how your head and body can disconnect when trauma happens that things finally make sense. I have felt so far away from what happens around me since that day. My mind is always somewhere else. Discovering how to meditate has been a life saver, the moments of peace it has given me when the pain was so great have gotten me through some sleepless nights but I never realised i needed to work on this part. After I followed your video today I had a feeling I haven’t had since and that was I was in my home, looking at my messy floor, wearing this blue jumper and I am here. I’m struggling to keep hold of the feeling but I remember now that’s how it wa and how it should be and I’m gonna work on it.
thank you 🌈
After doing this meditation a few times (thank you very much!) I just suddenly realized my entire life is a somatic mediation
keeping the eyes open makes me so anxious and stressed and even angry... so many times i want to just comfortably close my eyes and then be able to feel. then i noticed why my state of mind is so different on and off the mat! i can't focus on internal feeling when eyes are open... T..T hopefully doing this meditation more often could help me with dealing with life with eyes open T^T
Me too girl :((
I felt the same way! Except I just wanted to cry keeping my eyes open. And now I can't stop yawning lol
@@CassandraPhoenix96 Just cry girl, that’s your body trying to release the emotion it couldn’t before! My first meditation ended up with me balling my eyes and the relief was indescribable 💕
@GJM
Thank you Sukie! 💚🥰
Have been mediating for years and nothing has ever relaxed me as much as this!
I just tried this and had the most incredible emotional/physical response. I had a welling of feeling through my abdomen and chest that seemed to pull emotion up and out. Wow! I am amazed by the simplicity and power of this meditation! Thank you 😊
Can you make a video on Desensitizing the nervous system? I always have stiffness around my body after anxiety.
Sure, Supratim, that's a great idea. I'll add it to my list for upcoming videos.
I need this
From my experience, stiffness in my body means that I am trying to hold on to something subconsciously. When I focus inside on what the pain or tension is trying to tell me, I can let the emotions behind it release. This often has to do with anxiety and/or even old emotional pain that I’ve « stuffed down »!
Every single time I finish this meditation it feels like I'm seeing the world through new eyes. Thank you immensely for what you've done here 💛
Wow! It was soooooo hard to keep my eyes open! Going to keep practicing.
today is day 2 of this meditation. A traumatic memory surfaced today after the neck exercise. Clearly this is therapy and I have no words to thank you enough for sharing this jewel. When memories surfaced, they get released with SM and SE
I am so grateful the universe sent me to To you because when I was doing meditation I always feel that I’m holding trauma and grief on the inside and it manifests of my life in many different ways !
Thank you for what you’re doing
Thank you so much for this. I struggle with ptsd and often memories will consume me and causes me to breakdown and I can’t stop crying bc all I can think about are the memories. Every time that happens, I come to this video and by the end of it, I am no longer overwhelmed with painful memories. I’m able to set them aside until I see my emdr therapist. Thank you.
Hi I don't know how I stumbled across this but IT REALLY WORKED for my intense felt trauma in solar plexus. Thank you so much!
I started crying when I realised it was the first time in a long time I looked at something without thinking I couldn't help the tears falling it felt so.... so new
Wow, I felt lots if shifting in my neck, popping and clicking, now feel less stiffness, thank you!
The more I listen the more this makes sense,something got switched off after years of suppressing myself. This, it essentially wakens the beast,
Ohh, this felt amazing. Unlike other people, I was smiling most of the time
Both subtle and profound. Thank you Sukie.
Thank You! Good start to my day! 🌞
This was wonderful ! Thank you for your love and dedication 🌸
Thank you. Thank you so much for this.
This was the first time I’ve been able to meditate without sobbing in years.
I actually feel noticeably more relaxed. Thank you x
Thank you !!! I am so glad I found your channel
This was INCREDIBLE. Thank you so much! ❤️xx
I'm so grateful to find your videos today! Very helpful and healing. Love the birds and cricket sounds and your voice. You are a blessing and a beautiful soul Sukie! I have liked and subscribed. Will share with my friends too.
Wow! I truly needed this! Thank you! ❤
Thank you Sukie for sharing this healing wisdom, I love this approach. So many souls now ready to heal our individual and collective trauma.
This is part of my daily routine now. Thank you, Sukie ❤️
Incredible. Thank you
Thank you so much . Such a blessing.

This feels amazing!
This really helped me, thank you
Many thanks for these videos. They’ve been most helpful🙏❣️
Thank you this was so good!!
Dear Sukie-your information is so valuable to me across the board . This meditation is particularly useful.thank you so much . Sending you oodles of love 💕
Love this one Sukie! Really good!
The only thing that would calm me down. Thank you so much for this video❤️
very smart meditation. Trauma makes us dissociate, so we are so comfortable meditating with eyes closed. That is the norm. But with eyes open, I can actually feel the connections being created with my environment. This is a profoundly therapeutic meditation. The opposite of dissociative meditation. It's a somatic and connecting meditation that helps reinforce the here and now, the safety and the presence vs the memory of the trauma of the past. Just wonderful. Thank you.
Wonderful. Thank you for your generosity and energy. 🙏🏽
Love this! So healing 🙂
Thank you dearly for making this channel ❤
Thank you for this wonderful information !!
This was surprisingly effective, thank you!
Every time I listen I get soooo relaxed and just love it. I have shared with so many loved ones. Thank you Suki ❤

Such a lovely meditation, thank you!
Memories were coming up and i feel nourished after this. Thank you
thanks Sukie this was really helpful, i was really overwhelmed and couldn't stop crying and this helped me completely calm down and release my tension and emotions.
Hugely helpful. Thank you, more than I can express.
Hi Sukie, Thank you for making this video. I felt better after watching just one time! I look forward to daily viewing, this is just wonderful. Sukie, you helped me - and from the comments, obviously many others. Thank you so much. God bless you!!!!! THANK YOU.
What a lightworker. Thank you 🙌🏼 love and light to you ❤
This is the first meditation I've ever done that didn't feel "difficult." Thank you, just subscribed! 💜
Another great video- Sukie. I incorporate similar strategies while in the forest. While in the forest I also focus on being attentive to various smells and a big focus on any touch sensations.
you are seriously intelligent. God bless you. this was very helpful
Thank you for making this video it's very helpful
I love this, thank you. I'll be doing daily!
Your exercises are amazing... thank you so much
I feel so much better thank you 💚
Thank you ☺️ listening to this first thing in the morning is so nice.
In water, on land...there's always smiles for miles with Sherpa!!! Thank you, Jamie, for always doing whatever it takes to make sure Sherpa is well looked after. Sending healing, hugs & love 💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you Sukie 💕 I found this meditation really helpful bringing me into the present.
The most dominant sound was definitely the birds chirping in your video lol
Sukie, you are wise and generous. Thank you
I’ve just started sitting with this video. I get a panic in my gut and can tell when I start to check out. By the end I feel really peaceful and comfortable.
thank you so much. this resource is life changing. i am sending forth so much love
This really helped me get past some difficult stuff this morning ❤ Thank you so much for making this🙏I appreciate you and what you stand for ✊
I've been doing this for about two weeks, and tonight I felt a real nice shift :) When you asked what I was focussed on at the end of the meditation, it was how good I feel. Thank you so much!
Thankyou for this wonderful meditation, m feeling really better happy
I've had depression and insomnia well over ten years. This is the first time I've done something that made me sleepy within less than an hr without taking any supplements and medication. I also felt way calmer and relived some emotional tension that I've been carrying relentlessly all week. Thankyou so much from the bottom of my heart for doing what you do. 🤍
So..I was amazed by the differences I felt, at the end, I just started crying, I see down below that many have felt this and cried. I’ve suffered from childhood trauma, and was diagnosed with PTSD from that, then I became ill 10 years ago, and I just have not been able to recover, I have adrenal fatigue syndrome, due to the years of suffering stress from the trauma, and when I started crying. I felt it deep within my soul. It was powerful. Thank you so much I will do this to help me over come.
Thank you for making this available to all. I don’t mediate but this, this is different. Thank you so much.
Thank you very much for this incredible meditation ☺️
You are very very wise. You had some amazing reframing that I will take with me. Thank you ❤🙏🏼
I definitely felt the tightness in my chest and neck release at the end of this session ❤️❤️
Ouff. That saved me tonight. Watching the stars and I was spiralling. Thank you
I actually feel calm in my body. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you for this!
Suki you have such great, work it right now practices. I’m so grateful every time I see one of your videos; such a gift of serenity. Namaste.
Beautiful wonderful thank you ❤
This was amazing; thank you!
Never in a million years thought this would work. Pleasantly surprised. I feel like I’ve spent more than half my life just existing.
Thank you!
