Somatic Exercises - Fear and Anxiety - The Withdrawal Response

The production reaction goes hand in hand with fear, fear and anxiety. When one is surrounded by these emotions, reflexes occur immediately, which causes us to want to get out of our scary state, to withdraw. This low brain stem reflex happens so fast we don't even realize it, but when this unconscious habit repeats, it starts to affect everything we do.

Production reactions, also known as red light reflexes because stop action affects not only our emotions but also our function and structure. After a reflex is triggered during a scary encounter, the jaw muscles and eyebrow contract, followed quickly by closed eyes and contracted shoulder / neck muscles. Immediately afterwards, elbows bend, forearm to flex, contract abdominal muscles to round back and press ribs. Finally, the knees are bent and inward, the ankles are rolling and the legs are raised and the curves tighten. The body is left in a retracted position, but it happens so fast, in fact, the millisecond. Because of this we do not realize it.

REFLEX LIGHT RED

Red light reflexes are the major muscle response to negative stress in our lives. Everything from events such as the spread of loved ones to daily worries and anxieties will cause us to retreat.

When the reflex becomes habituated our ability to move freely is affected as the muscles associated with the red light reflex become chronically contracted. Once detained in the contraction of these muscles it will damage the posture by circling the shoulders and knocking back, remembering the effects of the elderly, as if someone were shrinking. What actually happens is a chronic contraction of the flexor body muscles (bending forward).

SHALLOW BREATHING

Because we primarily tighten the muscles in the front of the body during reflexes, other functions decline, our breathing. The scared / anxious people all have one thing in common, the stomach area. Touch the "belly" of the individual stomach and you will find the muscles difficult. Our abdomens need to be gentle in standing, sitting or lying, this allows them to extend or extend as we breathe our breath through our diaphragm.

People with tight stomachs tend to have shallow breathing, ie the diaphragm does not function independently until they breathe especially into the ribs / chest. Superficial breathing or hyperventilation can have the following effects on the liver:

1. Heart rate is increasing


2. Increased cardiac output


3. Loss of parasympathetic control of heart function and its replacement with sympathetic nerve function.

MUSLIM WITHOUT RELAXING VIA SOMATIC EXERCISES

We now know that the repetition of the production reaction (red light reflex) causes the body to flex its muscles to contract. To reverse this habituation try to practice this proposed somatic exercise.

Somatic exercises are kidnapping. Every healthy vertebrate mammal (including humans) can do some sorting, which is a slow / controlled contraction and release of muscles. Going in this way helps to prepare the brain for voluntary control and gives the individual a sense of muscle / s relaxation. When trying this somatic exercise try and get muscle tightening and relax at every repetition.

Lie on your back, arms / legs straight. Put one hand on your stomach and one hand on your chest on the nipple. Get a sense of where your breath is most powerful. See if this change applies.

PRINCIPLES PRINCIPLES OF SOMATIC RESPONSIBILITY - BASED ON DEMAND - INCREASE WITH CONSERVATION - WILL NOT BE REQUIRED OR REMOVAL

1. Roll and level - Bend your feet, place one hand on your genitals and one hand on the nipple. Slowly take the lower back (press the tailbone down, the back tightening) a comfortable amount and then take a deep breath (the abdomen tightens). Relax and feel your abdominal release. Repeat this 5-10 times slowly.


2. Gates and curls - With the hands bent at the back of the head with interlaced fingers (as if sitting ready). Sink to bend back a comfortable amount then breathe to flatten again and lift elbow pointing head to knee (stomach / chest should feel tight). Very slow head and arms and rest, is there liberation of the abdomen / chest? Repeat 5-10 times slowly.


3. Elbow to knee opposite - With knee bent to right hand behind head. Breathe to the back of the back then breathe slowly evenly and lift your head and left foot pointing your right elbow and knees toward each other by force (they don't need to touch, much less here). The front body feels tight. Very slow head, arms and left leg, rest. Is the front body release? Repeat 5 times on both sides slowly.


4. Diaphragm surgery - With crooked knees - Inhale (the back may be curved, this is good) and hold your breath. Press air into the chest still holding your breath (the back should flatten). Keep air in your stomach and chest until you feel the need to breathe again. Repeat 5 times.

Finish by lying with your arms / legs straight. Do you feel wider across your front body? Breathe in? More relaxed back?

Do this exercise twice a day for a week. See if they make a difference to your emotional state, back pain or fatigue.
