Description

In this episode, I discuss how trauma is held in the body and why somatic experiencing is so important for healing. I explore the relationship between trauma, the nervous system, and addiction. Listeners learn practical tools like breathwork and yoga to connect with their felt sense and regulate emotions.

Episode highlights include:

• How trauma gets stored in the nervous system and impacts our "fight or flight" response

• The link between highly sensitive people and addiction

• Why resilience is more complex than society often portrays

• Validating emotions through interoceptive awareness exercises

• Releasing past hurts through somatic experiencing techniques like breathwork and yoga
