I’ve become very adverse to “charge” & “discharge” in #somatic language b/c of the misappropriation by the #trauma workshops merchants
But this is what it means 👇🏼

“If we speak of charge and discharge in Body Psychotherapy we refer to changing the arousal dimension of the core affect. Working with charge and discharge is independent of the emotional category that we awaken or calm by provoking or soothing arousal.” - Ulfried Geuter and… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
In other words …
“emotion”
as a “somatic experience” (ignore the brand)
is a kinesthetic, experiential occurrence that impacts how bodies animate, express, dampen, numb, dissociate, etc

2/ when a person identifies themselves through #concepts they prize, hoard & claim them “as theirs”
and will sometimes “die for them”
b/c of the mechanism of identification is #conceptual

with #somatic #differentiation comes an internal network of self-experience that gives one access to a felt sense of #emergence
where harmonies, symphonies, waves, charges, compressions, tightens

my #somatic mentors insisted on two things that I am still engaged with & refining (forever) …
1/ I speak from my own direct experience, not through concepts
2/ I express my own words, and not use theirs or “pretend through their form”
to me this invites #differentiation

in other words … understanding words, even having mastery of the concepts that words describe
amounts to “very little value” from the standpoint of one’s own emergence
this is a provocative concept
esp to thinking minds (as I have)

I know there is concern with "stored emotions in the body" language
I share that concern

Ever wondered if and how #recombination of #retroelements contributes to #somatic #mosaicism? Read about it in our new pre-print:
Non-allelic homologous recombination of Alu and LINE-1 elements generates somatic complexity in human genomes. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Non-allelic homologous recombination of Alu and LINE-1 elements generates somatic complexity in human genomes. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
1/ Background: pathogenic non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR) of Alu and LINE-1 has been found in several genomic disorders and #cancer types. We thought this could be just the tip of the iceberg of a physiological recombinogenic activity of retroelements.
2/ The excellent Martin Frith developed a fresh pipeline to identify non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR) in short and long-reads libraries: 🦖TE-reX🦖. It smartly focuses on split reads that join repeat elements at homologous positions.

2. #MECFS is commonly misdiagnosed as a #somatic disorder

3. #MECFS symptoms can be diverse, complex, fluctuate and overlap with many other conditions making the diagnosis difficult
