Why do I get worse before I get better?

from Sensing Ground: Beyond Symptoms and Navigating Bodily Sensations · host Sensing Ground: Living with all Eight Senses

Joey Remenyi explains why it can feel that you get worse before you get better when you start implementing neuroplasticity and learning how to regulate your body. Sensations and emotions that have previously been too much and suppressed, are suddenly available for you to feel. Your inner neural pathways are becoming more efficient, so you feel more. This is not a sign you are getting worse, this a sign that your prefrontal cortex (PFC), insula, amygdala and whole sensory connections are improving. As you body scan you increase your interoception, which is your ability to make sense of your own body signals. This is a whole body process and you will build these skills slowly over time without needing to collapse, dissociate or fall into overwhelm. Gentle, loving awareness is the key to moving through the unresolved inner conflict that can arise. – 3 WAYS TO GET STARTED ON YOUR HEALING JOURNEY: 👉 Download our FREE Gentle Relief Starter Kit: https://starterkit.securechkout.com/ 👉 Explore the Sensing Ground Program & Community: https://www.seekingbalance.com.au/sensing-ground/ 👉 Start our full ROCK STEADY program for healing vertigo and tinnitus: https://www.seekingbalance.com.au/rocksteady/ – I’m Joey Remenyi, a vestibular audiologist, neuroplasticity therapist, author and the Founder of Seeking Balance International.
