Sexism PTSD & The Body - Elizabeth Menzel

[SpookyGhost]

Elizabeth Menzel's life's work is understanding and healing trauma trapped in the body - including her own. Originally a trained physical therapist she became intrigued by the link between clients with fibromyalgia and a history of trauma. She found help in Somatic Experiencing and other modes of releasing trauma. She talks about the science of releasing tension and stress, PTSD and sexism - including sharing her own struggles coming from a childhood with an overtly misogynistic father.

I found it really interesting. Sexism has only recently come up for me as one of my triggers, but for me it's because I was sexualized at a young age by my mother and learned the viewpoints about love, romance and sex from her that are distinctly anti-feminist and plain old fucked up. Men were not my problem, per say.
