Most of us are acquainted with the Fight-Flight-Freeze response
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fight-or-flight_response
I would like you to focus on the layers of tissues and muscles in the “freeze” mode.
Imagine you had angry parents and they used to shout on you (in a non proportional way )when you were a kid. You may have been the trigger to release their inner psychological tension. For instance, you didn’t do “cleanup” in your room and they screamed at you very loudly “out of the blue” and punished you as well.
What occurred in your mind – thoughts and emotions?, what happened to your subsystems (muscles, blood ,nervous ) , organs tissues and cells when you “freezed up” and disconnected yourself?
The “freeze mode” is the worse of “flight or fight” responses. In “fight and flight” response, you release the pick energy your body and mind automatically gathered from its storage –as a survival solution to the threat.
However, the freeze respond – is a psychological & physical drastic withdrawal inward as if “you don’t exist” – “transparent or invisible” , or may turns you “into a stone” or a “porcupine” as an act of “threatening the environment” of getting closer to you .
Why did we respond in a freeze mode and not in fight or flight modes? Sometimes running away or fighting are not possible options and the only option left as survival strategy of the automatic mind, is to freeze.
Over the years, if our solution to threatening situation is FREEZE, the muscles get bonded to blood vessels and nerves in a non natural way. This complexity brings about knotted stuck energy that prevents us from using whole energy potential. In other words, we use energy to sustain stressed physical “survival solution” that is not relevant any longer , never the less, may affect our health, in a negative way.
I advice using VAT – Vibroacoustic therapy to reduce pain, stress and post trauma and in fact release the tension of nerves, muscles and blood vesels that as the years go by, deform the shape of the physical body and “support” this state of being by similar psychological threats as the original.
VAT treatment is a process in which low sound frequencies are transmitted into the body. They are converted into vibrations that generate inner body massage to organs, tissues and cells.
The subtle affective vibrations can readjust twisted muscles, tissues and blood vessels. Using VAT as part of your daily doing, may change your life quality for the better. Once you unbundle your physical
freeze -effect, you can observe the positive changes, such as more energy availability, optimism, no back aches or headaches and better deep smooth breath.
Now you need to detach the automatic conditioning of any trigger to that freeze response. You can do that with the assistance of a therapist or alternatively, with self management tools such as meditation and self guided imagery.
