What Is Sensory Experiencing?

Sensory Experiencing (SE) taps into the body's ability to heal itself by releasing traumatic shock stored in the body. It was developed by Dr. Peter Levine, who observed naturalistic behaviors between predators and prey.

Sensory Experiencing is "a body-oriented approach to the healing of trauma and other stress disorders."

It doesn't revolve around the spoken event but the emotional and physiological body responses to the event, leading to a holistic approach to mental health wellness.


Benefits of Sensory Experiencing

There are numerous reasons educators, clinicians, and individuals seeking better mental health gravitate towards SE training and practice. Some of these include:

  1. Improvement of physical and emotional symptoms related to traumatic events.
  2. Provides coping mechanisms for managing stressors in daily life.
  3. Promotes physical and emotional resilience.
  4. Reduces symptoms of PTSD.
  5. Encourages body awareness and self-regulation.

How Sensory Experiencing Works

At the root of the SE method is the understanding that trauma is not stored as a story in our minds, but as sensory and autonomic memories stored in our bodies. The method works from a "bottom up" approach, by tracking and listening to the body, allowing the traumatic experiences to be both released and integrated, enhancing the individual's ability for self-regulation.


Training in Sensory Experiencing

Training in Sensory Experiencing includes understanding trauma, the neurobiology of trauma, and embodied awareness. Participants also build clinical skills for trauma resolution and integrate SE into their existing practice.
