Somatic experiencing

Somatic experiencing recognizes that trauma becomes stuck in the body as incomplete survival responses—the fight, flight, or freeze you couldn't complete at the moment of threat. Through careful attention to sensation and movement, your system can finally complete what was interrupted, releasing the charge stored in your tissues.
