Thank you for writing that. It speaks to exactly where I am now, and I feel validated - not alone - and supported. It feels like a vital step to take toward integration, wholeness, and love. I've agreed with my parental critics my whole life and kept myself in the dungeon. The one who presents to the world is a phony or at least partial, unable to let love in or out. Today I'm trying to bring the 2 parts together into one whole person - divine and human, warts and all. Boatloads of love to you, Vibha Hi, Jack,

I just returned to this website today and saw your question. Here are a few quick thoughts: Another person provides a "container" for a person to heal from shock by being a caring compassionate presence for the other person to do their healing work. For more discussion you can reach me at mickeyjudd@yahoo.com In the mean time you can access a video I made at http://vimeo.com/15412067 The intent of it is heal shock by the use of empathic singing. I hope this helps a little. Mickey Dear Kim,

Dear Mickey,

There are many interesting leads in the letter your wrote, my eyes zeroed in on “healing shock” and would like a list of interventions for that.
what I am understanding is, first one gets present with one’s body, and connect to searching out and observing the sensations one is going through and finding ways to describe them.

next I’m guessing one important intervention for healing would be to allow the body to process the experience without trying to control it but to be present as an observer self (while empathizing and connecting to the needs that are being expressed and felt) and giving full acceptance of allowing and trusting (truly listening and giving an acceptance that it makes sense to have the reactions one has)

would you mind a hypothetical example of a person processing and healing shock and also how another person helps in that?
