The Durational Read: A Method for Metabolizing the Body's 'Bad' as the Signature of Becoming

Open access2 citations

Abstract

A repeatable method — the durational read — for holding an aversive somatic signal across time until its valence resolves from 'bad' to the felt-sense of becoming. Distinguished from dissociation, spiritual bypassing, and endurance; grounded in titration (Levine) and ventral-state pacing (Porges). Paper II in the Temporal Somatics series.
