Popps, you have absolutely no reason to be embarrassed! My stomach actually tends to get a little haywire if I know I'm gonna talk about some really deep, personal, or embarrassing stuff. One session my stomach was grumbling rather loudly but so was Ts and it felt like we were having some sort of competition of who's stomach could be louder . it was weird at first but It became less awkward when T addressed it and made a joke about it, so it made me feel at ease. Then we got into a mini conversation about bathroom jokes and innapropriate stuff like that ha!

I was told that sighing is related to depression.

Don't be embarrassed, Poppet. These kind of discussions help normalize our idiosyncrasies!

Anxiety tends to settle in my stomach and I will feel the need to burp particularly during a session when I am suppressing a lot of emotions.

The vagal nerve discussion helped me to understand why I suddenly felt dizzy during my last T session.

I don't burp a lot in session, but I get the feeling like I kind of have to, not full-fledged, but like there is something in my throat. It makes sound, as does an occasionally grumbly tummy, and usually T just ignores it, but we have both commented on it before (his grumbly tummy and my own). I haven't paid attention to how much I sigh. I know I apologize whenever T sighs, lol. I do think I probably sigh when I begin settling down from something.

Cat - I never put a name to it, but I do patterning too, with my T's ceiling tiles in one office and with his blinds and paintings in the other...a lot. And, well, at home, all over the place.

Poppet,

One of my sessions is after lunch and I'm always afraid I'm going to belch.

Poppet -

I am so happy you posted that!! It used to happened to me a lot and I thought what the heck is wrong with me??! I noticed it would happen mostly when we had a tougher session and I was trying not to cry. I think it did have to do with swallowing a lot b/c I often feel like I can swallow my tears away...

I don't know about belching Poppet but I've jusr
been to the dentist and all the while she was
working on me I had the sound of her tummy
gurgling in my right ear!! Quite sweet really!
I think she must have missed her breakfast

AV, your nuts!!!

((((Scarzee)))) I'm guessing that comment wasn't a request!!!

Yeah; nuts! Of course I am but you love me really

I'm laying in the dentists chair under this big bright light with this blue eyed blonde vision of loveliness peering down at me with her tummy gurgling away to itself in my ear. It quite took my mind off the pain of the drilling she was doing!

Should be ashamed of yourself!!!!¬

Omg AV you're a mess! (I say that in the most loving way) lol
