Trauma RewiredSexual Abuse and Shame: How Trauma Shapes the Body and BoundariesShame doesn’t live in your head, it lives in your body.

Our brains work really hard to categorize things into "safe" and "threat" consistently. Not knowing is scary because it invites vulnerability. When we have a traumatized system, we sense threat in most places. Judgment takes us from our needs, from our felt sense and we go into our mind to figure it out – to put an identity to it, to make it st...2022-04-2421 minHolistic Life Navigation[Ep. 90] Navigating Our Bodies As Our Ancestors | Luis Mojica"The first alter of our ancestors is the body."

When we're in relationship with our bodies, we're in relationship with the land and vice versa.
