Some discomfort and difficulty is expected because it is work. You are changing your neurological pathways
Imagine being guided through a practice that helps you reconnect with your body and find some peace amid the chaos of past trauma. That's exactly what Dr. Saira Khan offers in this episode of 'Recovery from Coercive Control'. Dr. Khan, a psychologist and human rights advocate, uses her unique blend of professional expertise and personal experience to lead listeners through a full body scan mindfulness practice.
This technique encourages you to tune into your body's sensations, promoting a sense of presence and awareness that can be deeply healing. While it’s normal for your mind to wander during these exercises, the goal is to gently bring your focus back to the present moment. Dr. Khan explains that this process involves changing neurological pathways, which can be challenging but ultimately rewarding.
She shares insights into the science behind mindfulness, highlighting its benefits for mental health, emotional regulation, and resilience. The episode is not just about the practice itself but also offers practical tips on how to integrate mindfulness into your daily life. Dr. Khan's compassionate approach ensures that these practices are trauma-sensitive, making them accessible and safe for those who have experienced coercive control.
Whether you're new to mindfulness or looking to deepen your practice, this episode provides valuable tools and a hopeful message for anyone on the path to recovery.
