Stillness and the Default Mode Network

One of the most powerful therapeutic tools we have is Stillness. And yet we struggle to describe it, to make space for it, to understand its value. In its absence our work becomes cacophonous, blundering, detuned from the real needs of the person in our care. We go through motions without any underlying change. What is Stillness, from a brain network perspective? How might it bring about changes in states of interoception, well-being, and chronic pain? Here's a throwback to one of our first livestreams (Month 1 of Pandemic! Whoa.) where we explore a contemporary model of Stillness, as a behavior of the brain's Default Mode Network (DMN).
