Somatic walking is an exercise to help you change your brain and body's neural and chemical responses to your dizziness symptoms (spinning, rocking, heaviness, nausea, floatiness, etc.) while you are in motion.
This 20-minute version of the exercise will teach your brain to respond to the unpleasant sensations you feel without alarm. This changes the neural pathways and connections in your brain (neuroplasticity) and will, with time, will help you reduce your symptoms. This exercises goes into more depth than the 10-minute version in terms of working with the reactions you're having to your symptoms.
The goal of the exercise is not to get rid of the dizziness or related symptoms. The goal of the exercise is to teach your brain that it is safe and in no danger. It doesn't matter whether the dizziness changes, or gets better or worse while you are tracking it.
You can find a 10-minute version of somatic walking here: • Somatic Tracking for P...

I've been living with dizziness for 7 months, mine are a bit on/off. I'm going to try this somatic walking while taking my walk. Walking used to be my favorite physical activity…now I’m terrified of going for a walk! Walking in forests scares me less, linear streets dizzy me a lot.

@@stellaplaytime7533 It's starting to get better! I realize that my symptoms are triggered by my mindset. If I'm anxious or afraid of the symptoms, they will definitely increase, or if I focus on the symptoms it will be worse. If I remain indifferent and calm the symptoms diminish and go away.

6:13 pm 12/18/2023 I did this exercise for the first of many times to come. The symptom i concentrated on was my floaty, dizzy feeling in my head. I didn't see a shape or color, just felt the presence. At first I felt disappointed that the feeling was in my head. Then ad i listened i tried to express to my brain that I appreciated its attempt to protect me from the stressful incidences in my life. I also tried to let my brain know i was ready for it to create another neural pathway, that would return me to normalcy. I also let my brain know we'd be doing this exercise again tomorrow. Thank you Dr. Yo, you're a Godsend. Christa

Hi Dr. Yonit I understand what to do about symptoms/bad days but I wanted to ask you what should we do on the Good days (during PPPD recovery) when the symptom volume dial is way lower. An example is the somatic tracking, on the good days you can’t really focus on a sensation when the volume dial is super low. What should our attitude be on these good days? What tips would you give for someone on their good day who might still have a bad day coming up since the recovery process has its ups and downs. Also how should we address that slight fear someone might have of the symptoms coming back the next day? Not sure if you have any vids on what to do during the Good days. Thanks for everything you do.

Yes, as Maya says- LIVE JOYFULLY! This is a great topic for a future video! My general thought would be not to fly around like a bat out of hell (lol)- still respect the fact that your nervous system is still going through ups and downs even when you feel better. Focus on doing things that you truly value and love, not just things that you sometimes have more trouble doing.

Dr Yo. Are there any supplements you recommend to take to calm the nervous system and improve balance?
@TheSteadyCoach
@TheSteadyCoach Год назад
Not at this point, beyond trying to support your body in the best way you can with good quality nutrition and sleep. Vitamin D has been shown to be beneficial if your levels are low, and most my clients also take magnesium. Many of my clients have tried alternative supplements with high degrees of variation in their success.

I’m not a qualified medic but I did find that a month long course of B6 supplements helped a lot, along with hands-on somatic therapy. I’ve also found ginger to be very good… fiery ginger beer or even just chewing small pieces of raw ginger… perhaps it was just the heat that brought me to my senses but I did read a scientific study where they compared ginger with diazepam and found that it has a similar calming effect on the nervous system but without the depressive side effects. I think you can find the study easily by searching something like “ginger vs diazepam”. Also, very low amounts of alcohol can help, like a conditioner… but of course high amounts can be detrimental and make the symptoms of dizziness and imbalance a lot lot worse! I was doing so well, hadn’t had a dizzy spell since early November… then I went out with a friend a few days ago, drank just two drinks too many and I’m all dizzy again now, still, 5 days later 🤪

I have so many questions: like the “sensations”, are they the things we are feeling (dizzy, visual weirdness, head pressure, etc? Why are they there? Are they a response to emotions? Are they trying to protect me from something? I feel really confused about that. @The Steady Coach do you have any input? And is anyone here reading “the way out” by Alan Gordon?
@TheSteadyCoach
@TheSteadyCoach 6 месяцев назад
Deep breath Suzanne. There are different ways of understanding this and many of us in the mindbody world have different ways of explaining it. The thing to know first is this thing is driven by fear and continued focus on symptoms. Start there.

Hi Dr.! Quick question, when we go through the ups and down, on the day that we feel the symptoms more should we still continue to try to walk, go out, do our regular routine or should we relax and rest? Thank you
@TheSteadyCoach
@TheSteadyCoach Год назад
This is a great question Habil! I like the idea of pacing, which means you stay active even on not so great days, but you can do that with self compassion and develop a sense of what amount of pushing is right for you. We talk about it in this interview! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZjPuec-XRUc.html

@TheSteadyCoach
@TheSteadyCoach Год назад
The ups and downs are a completely normal part of recovery. Over time, they will happen less often and with less intensity. My measurements for whether someone is recovering is whether that person is less fearful of the symptoms and less preoccupied by them when they do happen, whether the person is avoiding less, and often if the person can look back on the symptoms and say that they understand why they happened.
