How do you use mirroring when wanting to hold the container for someone to safely go into their freeze response for healing?
This is the question that I answer in today’s Biology of Trauma Podcast. This episode is an excerpt from one of my professional development training sessions for those who become mentors and lead the breakout groups in the Foundational Journey. During this session, I chat with those group members about what mirroring is, how to use it to excite, subside, or maintain whatever the emotional state is, and how mirroring someone’s own words back to them creates a connection. I will also explain what to do when someone goes into a freeze state and how to be a safe place for that person.
