This seminar examines our two systems for regulating affect: a primary, early developing system in which the processes are unconscious and automatic and a secondary, later developing one in which the processes are conscious and deliberate. Both systems develop in the attachment relationship. Secure attachment results in the optimal capacity to regulate affect. Insecure attachment, the result of early relational trauma, results in deficits in regulatory capacities. Such deficits result in chronic dissociation at low levels of stress, pervasive shame and personality disorders. Treatment of the capacity to regulate affect occurs in the implicit therapeutic relationship mediated by non-verbal expressions of affect.

The Body Holds the Healing (Malchiodi, 2022).

In contemporary psychotherapy, the term embodiment has taken on a slightly different meaning. Many therapists are now familiar with the idea that the “body keeps the score” (van der Kolk, 1994; 2014). “Our issues are in our tissues” (author unknown) is another phrase often used by somatic educators and body-based practitioners (yoga, massage, and others) to describe the importance of physical awareness.

These ideas influenced the definition of embodiment and what has become known as embodied practices, particularly within the field of traumatic stress. These practices underscore the importance of observing and noticing one’s internal felt sense. Embodiment implies that the central focus for emotional repair, transformation, and recovery is through becoming aware of our physical being through the senses. It is a way to include the body as a focus for health and well-being through self-appreciation and self-acceptance of what we physically sense and feel in the moment (Malchiodi, 2020).
