Emma Marschall, a holistic expert, went viral with a video where she talked about the so-called "somatic shaking" (a form of "dance" that focuses on shaking the body in a specific instinctive way) and spoke with conviction about the impact it has method to relieve stress. According to her, this is a powerful method of therapy and alternative meditation, especially for those who have constant anxiety and tension.

But what exactly is "somatic shaking"?

Theoretically speaking, it is a movement of the body based on instincts that has the ability to remove all negative emotions especially when you feel occupied by traumas. There are no wrong or right moves, the important thing is to channel the negative energy and get rid of it.

How can you accomplish this method?

It's actually very simple. You only need 5 minutes (or less) to dedicate to this method every morning and you don't need any extra objects or anything.

Position yourself on your feet and try to feel the connection with your feet and the ground. Focus on your body and try to be as aware as possible of what you are feeling. Try to maintain a connection with your body, put your favorite song in the background, preferably a song that makes you dance, and move your body as much as possible, even if the way you are doing it seems strange.

Does this method work?

The first effect that comes from "somatic shaking" is the release of muscle tension and a lot of adrenaline. When the body is in a state of stress, everything is affected and you can feel tension, increased heart rate, breathing problems, decreased sexual desire, digestive problems and weakened metabolism. But this dance balances the body and restores the optimal state of the nervous system if you follow it regularly as a method.
