The Importance of Containment and Movement in Trauma Response

This episode is about Fawning - what I call "The Fourth F" after fight, flight & freeze in response to threat, yet often the first one we use. Fawning is mistaken for "politeness" and "having manners", but it's actually a learned threat response.

This episode explains why we do it, what happens, and how to begin healing this body mechanism.
