Beverly: Feldenkrais & Neuroplasticity Techniques
- Misophonia as an unrecognized nervous system condition: Beverly spent 47 years not knowing why sound overwhelmed her — and how a single Google search in 2013 changed everything.
- The Facebook breaking point: How an open workspace, constant snacking, and a performance plan combined to put Beverly's nervous system — and her back — over the edge, and what she found on the other side.
- Somatic movement as a sensory regulation tool: Why Awareness Through Movement® worked when meditation and other modalities didn't — and how shifting attention to the body can move triggers from foreground to background.
I didn't know the term "nervous system regulation" until I finally felt it — after months of a consistent Awareness Through Movement® practice. I just knew something had shifted. My misophonia symptoms eased. My focus improved. I slept better. I could be around people without feeling depleted.
It wasn't until this conversation that I realized just how long I'd been dysregulated. My whole life. Forty-seven years.
Thanks to neuroplasticity, that changed. Which makes me wonder — if an adult brain can rewire that profoundly, what becomes possible for children, whose brains are even more plastic? Could earlier access to somatic body awareness tools ease these symptoms before they calcify into a lifetime of coping?
I don't have the answer. But I think it's worth asking.
