When we can't meet in person, how can we build connection? A second conversation with Sarah Schlote

In the midst of lockdown, how can we find resilience and emotional balance? How can we make the connections we need to feel safe -- in our bodies, in our relationships, out in the world...and on our Zoom calls? How can we feel truly alive? Therapist Sarah Schlote has much-needed answers...Life is changing and we need to find ways to keep ourselves emotionally resilient.  Sarah Schlote, therapist and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, has spent her professional life exploring the pathways by which we find safety  - in our own bodies, in our closest relationships, and out in the world. In today’s podcast, we explore the ways we can find the connection that science (and experience) tells us we need to feel safe in the presence of others.  We explore ways that we can work towards safety in Zoom (or other video) calls in both one to one situations and in larger groups. We look at strategies we can all use all the time to help us navigate the novel circumstance of a global threat. Links: Sarah’s personal site: https://sarahschlote.comSarah’s Healing Refuge: https://healingrefuge.com/our-team/sarah-schlote/Equusoma:  https://equusoma.com/Sarah’s “Freesources”  page - has brilliant diagrams: https://equusoma.com/freesources/Steven Porges: https://www.stephenporges.comPeter Levine’s ‘Trauma therapist project’ https://www.thetraumatherapistproject.com/podcast/peter-levine-phd/Book Spiritual Bypassing:  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Spiritual-Bypassing-Spirituality-Disconnects-Matters/dp/1556439059/
