Bandvefurinn umvefur allt í líkamanum og er hluti af mynstri líkamans til að halda okkur í jafnvægi. Ef við sitjum eða stöndum ekki rétt, höfum lent í slysi, farið í aðgerðir, festir bandvefurinn sig, ahesions, knots, eða fer að loða við bein til þess vinna á móti spennu sem myndast annarsstaðar í líkamanum. Hægt og rólega getum við unnið á móti þessum krónisku spennu mynstrum líkamans til að koma aftur flæði í bandvefinn. Með blokkinni, þyngd líkamans og öndun erum við að hita upp bandvefinn og koma aftur af stað flæði.

Heilbrigður bandvefur ber vökva, og næringu í hin ýmsu kerfi í líkamanum. Hægt og rólega minnkum við spennu og verki í líkamanum, og okkur fer að líða betur.

Ef það er eitthvað sem við getum gert reglulega til að vinna með bandvefinn, þá er að að leggjast á handklæðarúllu, á naflann og æfa okkur í þindaröndun. 3-5 mínútur. Svo að vinna með fætur og hendur daglega.

Ef þú vilt prufa BT æfingarkerfið hafðu samband. Ég býð upp á frían prufutíma á þriðjudögum kl. 18.30 í Yogavin.

In this video, we share the first position we always start with in Block Therapy. This position will help you locate, activate and strengthen your diaphragm....

Just had a deep conversation about this with a client.

Don’t give up or quit before the miracle.

Yes. This is it!! Sometimes we need someone to in the trenches with us to lift us out. 🥰

Very important for trauma survivors to get support to process.

Very important for trauma survivors to get support to process.

If the experience is a single event, and we have adequate support afterward, and we have had little or no prior trauma, then we will be left shaken, but the events will feel “behind” us now. If traumatic events have been recurrent, and/or we are developmentally vulnerable, and/or we have inadequate support, we can be left with a host of ‘implicit’ memories, intense responses and symptoms that “tell the story” but without words and without the knowledge that we are remembering.

Read the comments. Hand on heart, my friends. 🥰

Recovery Supporting Question (RSQ): what can I do, today, in this handful of moments right here, to take care of myself? What teeny, tiny baby step can I take that will communicate to my nervous system that I'm on my own side, that I have my own back?

Að finna eitthvað sem virkar — eitthvað sem þú getur tekið með þér og notað það sem eftir er — það er það sem við erum öll að leita að. TRE er ekki meðferð sem þú ferð í. TRE er færni sem þú lærir og átt síðan til frambúðar. Bætir því við rútínuna þína. Eftir ræktina, gönguna, vinnuna, erfiðan dag í vinnunni. Einfalt en öflugt. Skráðu þig á næsta námskeið og bættu TRE við sjálfsræktina þína. Sendu a mig skilaboð ef þú vilt meiri upplýsingar.

Were you sexually abused as a child? Are you stuck as an adult? I know how that feels. You’ve read all the right books, tried everything you can think of, and the same negative things keep happening again and again in your life and relationships. It’s a depressing hamster wheel, and you can’t figure out how to stop it. Ugh! I can help. I went through all of that on my own journey and finally found my way out. I can help you escape this depressing cycle, too. That’s why I offer private coaching for those stuck in this frustrating place. Some just need an hour, and they can move forward again. Others need more. Some need group coaching. Everyone is different. I help people all over the world using Skype or Zoom, or over the phone. I charge $125.00 per hour for Abuse Survivor Coaching. Email svava@educate4change.com to set up an appointment. You can also book on my calendar using the link HERE! If you need someone safe, someone who knows exactly how you feel and won’t judge, contact me. We can talk about it. You’ll feel much better. You really will.

Other Services: All services are provided using the internet (Skype or Zoom) or telephone.
