Body stiffness. Jaw: all the unspoken meaningful to us

The figurative definition of V. dal jaw consists "of two personal bones, which sit in the teeth; the upper jaw is immovable and at the top forms the cheekbones; lower jaw goes condyles. bites and chews". And the jaw segment includes the muscles of the neck.

Probably every one of you had ever experienced as his jaw much compressed in stressful situations. Oh, how much this usually costs! The area of the jaw, it is the same area of the mouth, it is also the care quality provided to region, bears a great psychological burden, in terms of bodily-oriented psychotherapy.





Well, first, it is an evolutionary adaptation — the ability to bite, to tear, to grab – you need to capture, chewing food, i.e. for survival. Secondly, the jaw was necessary for protection from animals and hostile people.

It's the hardest bone. Without it man would not have survived. The jaw provides for the basic needs: food, protection. "Pull teeth", "Cut the throat".

And still these functions of the jaw have meaning only in the civilized world somehow smooth and veiled. But our muscles, which regulate the compression of the jaw and relaxation still work. And we often, physical therapists are faced with tension and compression in this area.

The clips are formed when the human expresses. Formed in early childhood (abandonment nipples are). The first time you wanted to Express your anger, but did not make it for some reason, the body had to suppress this reaction to hold your breath, squeeze of the jaw and clenched fists.

In childhood we were raised and instilled the behavior of civilized man: "don't cry out loud, do not spit, do not grimace, do not talk nonsense, do not yawn loudly, not primarily etc." But we are sometimes very much like (and want to). Why? Because we have removed some of the tension in the jaw, which arose in response to the anger, resentment, mockery.

And no one is taught how to Express anger in a socially acceptable ways and how to "withdraw" from the body of the stress associated with undeveloped strong emotions.

Was just a ban on the manifestation of strong emotions in the childhood. The ban on the expression of crying, screaming, resentment, anger, aggression. "Shut your mouth", "Give lip", "You're a man", "What's the matter?".

So here, in this segment, blocked all of his meaningful for us, naviplot, shortfalls, nedovrseno teeth.

Using the tension of modern people learned to hold back the screaming, rage, anger. And some of it is so good that their mouth cannot open fully, to have something loud to say, their speech becomes incomprehensible, man, "mumbles", there are multiple problems with the teeth, pains in the jaw and in the neck. And may decrease vision.





You can check how clenched your jaw:

  • Fold three fingers and place them between the teeth. How you can keep a long time in that position? If comfortable, strong clip probably not. If only accommodates two and there is a pain — strong grip.
 

Now, select some detail on the opposite wall and look at it, and then strongly tighten the jaws and look at the same item. The outlines are blurred? Here is the clip.

Overcoming life's difficulties, we unconsciously compressible jaws and "collect will in a fist". On the development of masticatory muscles, we can judge the development of acquired volitional qualities of the person. The gripping force of the jaw muscles we can assess the strategy of active human action. And there could be several options:

  • open conflict,
  • adjustment and manipulation,
  • progressive steady pressure,
  • the search for innovative solutions.
 

And what strategies do you use?

It is clear that a person with a weak jaw in open battle and do nothing, he intuitively will choose the more comfortable tack.

Orgone therapy

 

Understanding typical patterns of behaviour and your dominant strategy, you will be able to more objectively understand that the choice of tactics of achievement of the result should be based on the exploration of alternatives, and not on a habitual response patterns. But you need to learn to control the muscles in this segment.published
