The Biology of Trauma® With Dr. AimieThe Biology Behind It: Why the Body Is Wired for DangerYour nervous system’s main job isn’t to make you happy. It’s to keep you safe. That’s why, even after the danger is over, your body can still act like it’s under threat. In this mini episode, Dr. Aimie goes into the biology behind how trauma gets stuck in the body and why it’s so hard to “just move on.” You’ll learn how something called the body trauma loop keeps your system in survival mode, and how the brain’s ability to learn (neuroplasticity) can actually lock in trauma patterns over time. In thi...2025-06-2714 minThe Biology of Trauma® With Dr. AimieWhy Your Body Is Wired for Danger: Understanding Trauma's Impact on Your Nervous SystemWhen was the last time that you truly felt so safe that you had no anxiety, no fear, or insecurity for the future? Many people feel like they're always waiting for disaster to strike. Their body stays stressed even when nothing bad is happening. If this sounds like you or those you help, here's why it happens and what you can do about it. The answer lies in understanding how early life experiences wire our nervous system for survival rather than safety. When we get overwhelmed and can't find our way ba...2025-06-2431 minThe Biology of Trauma® With Dr. AimieThe Biology Behind It: How Your Nervous System Decides What’s Safe and Why It Matters for HealingEven if you’ve done years of therapy, learned to manage your emotions, and built self-awareness, your nervous system might still be stuck in survival mode.
