A short first-person testimonial in which the speaker recounts a traumatic event about one month prior that left them numb and disconnected from their body. After requesting a grounding exercise (yesterday), they experienced unexpected physical and vocal reactions (coughing, having previously lost their voice) and began to re-engage with and enjoy being in their body.
I had one month ago, very traumatic experience that really disconnected me from my body, and I didn't really want to be in it. I didn't want to exercise or do nothing. I was really, really numbing myself. And yesterday I asked for grounding. And what went through me was more than grounding. I. I started coughing because I lost my voice when I come here. I was so spaced out, I couldn't even. I didn't want to say the cues Fish was saying. I was like, no, I don't want. It's too much. And after the session yesterday, I raised my hand the first. I was like, let me express. And. And since then, I have been enjoying so much to be in my body.
