    Podcast Summary

    • Bringing the Body and Nervous System into Our Work for Effective Change, Trauma Resolution, and Mindset ChangeNeuro Somatic Intelligence (NSI) certification offers a practical and actionable framework to bring the body and nervous system into our work for transformative change, trauma resolution, and mindset shift. It can help create connected leaders and attract dream clients by delivering truly different results.

      Our past relationships and the dynamics of those relationships are not just stored in our minds but also in our nervous systems. This means that as coaches, therapists, or practitioners, it's essential to bring the body and nervous system into our work for effective behavior change, trauma resolution, and mindset change. Neuro Somatic Intelligence (NSI) certification offers a practical and actionable framework to do just that, making it a valuable addition to any coaching model. Furthermore, NSI can help create connected leaders by addressing the neuro-somatic component of complex trauma that affects our relationships. Dr. Julie Hamilton, a relationship expert, shares her experience of how NSI has transformed her practice, allowing her to reach clients in a deeper way. For those who have struggled to bring somatic practices into their own lives due to personal reasons or trauma, NSI offers a clear and authentic approach. By understanding that our nervous system needs us, even if we resist somatic healing, we can cross the threshold and begin to make lasting changes. Overall, incorporating NSI into our work can help us become experts in brain-based coaching, attracting dream clients, building credibility, and delivering truly different results. Join Elizabeth Kristof, Jennifer Wallace, and Dr. Julie Hamilton for a free workshop on July 27th to learn more about this transformative approach.

    • Bridging the gap with NeuroSomatic EducationNeuroSomatic Education offers a scientifically grounded, accessible approach to somatic practices, helping individuals with nervous system dysregulation or intellectual/emotional resistance find safety and effectiveness.

      NeuroSomatic Education (NSI) can serve as an effective bridge into somatic practices for individuals who have intellectual or emotional resistance, particularly those with nervous system dysregulation. NSI's scientific foundation and practical, efficient techniques provide a safer and more accessible entry point for those who may find traditional somatic practices threatening or overwhelming. Furthermore, understanding the role of the nervous system in relationships and attachment bonds is crucial, as these areas often challenge our nervous systems and require effective regulation for healthy relationships and personal growth. NSI's focus on autonomy and sovereignty also empowers individuals to take control of their own nervous systems and make informed decisions about their emotional responses.

    • Provide practical tools for managing dysregulationPractical tools like tongue circles or body shifts help manage triggers and create a safer environment in relationships, interrupting negative patterns and fostering healthier connections.

      During relational work, providing individuals with practical and easy-to-implement regulation tools is crucial for managing dysregulation and interrupting negative patterns. These tools, such as tongue circles or body shifts, help individuals respond differently to triggers and create a safer, more curious environment in relationships. By focusing on these rescue tools first, rather than extensive nervous system training, individuals can effectively manage attachment wounds and the cascading effects of dysregulation on both themselves and their partners. Interrupting the spiral of triggering responses is key to fostering healthier, more resilient relationships.

    • Recognizing and responding to each other's nervous system statesEffective communication and care in relationships can enhance safety, understanding, and personal growth. Responding to each other's emotional states creates a supportive environment, and shared language and nonverbal cues can deepen emotional expression and resilience. Remember, everyone processes emotions differently, and self-care is essential.

      Effective communication and care in relationships can lead to increased safety, understanding, and personal growth. When partners recognize and respond to each other's nervous system states, they create an environment of mutual support and empowerment. Shared language and nonverbal cues can exponentially enhance this connection, allowing for greater emotional expression and resilience. It's essential to remember that everyone processes emotions differently and that taking care of oneself and one's partner is crucial. The goal is not to eliminate dysregulation but to expand the capacity of the nervous system to experience a broader emotional spectrum, fostering a deeper and more authentic connection in the relationship.

    • Exploring Polyamory: Finding Fulfillment and Healing the Nervous SystemThrough practicing polyamory, individuals can experience deeper connections and personal growth by focusing on nervous system regulation and attachment healing.

      For some individuals, practicing polyamory can offer a more fulfilling and authentic experience of life, allowing them to fully engage in relationships and emotions, rather than using new relationships as an escape. However, without proper nervous system regulation, these experiences can lead to dysregulation and avoidance due to fear of the potential costs and negative outcomes. By focusing on healing the nervous system and attachment, individuals can push themselves into uncomfortable situations and grow in their relationships, knowing they have the tools to bounce back. This approach enables people to pursue meaningful connections and intimacy, expanding their capacity for relationship and personal growth.

    • Acknowledging feelings during new relationshipsRecognize discomfort in new relationships, acknowledge past traumas, and trust the process of healing and growth.

      Recognizing the need for a break and taking the time for self-care is essential for personal growth and forming healthy relationships. However, transitioning into new patterns and experiences can be dysregulating due to past traumas and beliefs. It's crucial to acknowledge these feelings and work through them, as there is no right way to build relationships or follow their trajectory. When faced with a safe and healthy relationship, it's natural to experience some discomfort due to the newness of the situation. Overlooking these reactions and seeking evidence of danger or instability can hinder the growth and development of a healthy connection. It's essential to be patient with oneself and the relationship, and to trust the process of healing and growth.

    • Healing our nervous systems impacts present and future generationsAddressing relational trauma can heal past wounds and contribute to societal patterns of well-being for all living beings

      Healing our nervous system not only impacts our present relationships and future generations but also reaches back through generations of trauma and dysregulation. We are all interconnected, forming one giant nervous system, and the healing work we do collectively can shift societal patterns and contribute to the well-being of all living beings. Our parents' unconscious minds were our first reality, and by addressing our own relational trauma, we have the opportunity to heal the wounds of the past and create a ripple effect that extends beyond our own lifetimes. This work is not only personal but also carries a profound collective responsibility and divine purpose.

    • Interconnected relationships and collective nervous systemsIndividual efforts to heal and grow can have a ripple effect on relationships and the collective nervous system, starting with the individual and leading to exponential shifts in the collective.

      Our relationships and the collective nervous system are interconnected, and individual efforts to heal and grow can have a ripple effect on the people and networks around us. Our relationships, whether romantic, platonic, or professional, form a web or "polycule" that influences and is influenced by each person's actions and healing process. Change starts with the individual, and consistent efforts to work on one's nervous system can lead to exponential shifts in the collective. As the speaker emphasizes, "one person taking these tiny actions absolutely shifts the whole web." This interconnectedness is essential to remember, as the speaker notes, "single human brains do not exist in nature. Without mutually stimulating interactions, people and neurons will wither and die." Therefore, our relational work and personal growth have the potential to impact not only ourselves but also the broader society.

    • Relational complexes impact our health and overall life experienceRecognizing and addressing internal relational dynamics through nervous system work promotes healing and better management of symptoms.

      Our relational capacities significantly impact our health, productivity, and overall life experience. This is true not only in our external relationships but also in the internal dynamics between different parts of ourselves. These relational complexes, shaped by past experiences, can lead to dysregulations and conflicts within us. By recognizing and addressing these internal dynamics through nervous system work, we can better understand and manage our symptoms and promote healing. This approach allows us to regain control of our bodies and effectively address the internal "wars" that may be contributing to our dysregulation.

    • Exploring Nervous System Regulation for Healing RelationshipsPracticing nervous system regulation can lead to self-discovery, improved relationships, and personal growth. Authenticity and presence are crucial in fostering healthy connections, while some relationships may not be compatible due to nervous system incompatibility. Graceful exits can allow for personal growth and increased self-trust.

      Practicing nervous system regulation can help heal internal fragmentation and improve relationships. The speaker shares her personal experience of using various drills to regulate her nervous system during times of emotional turmoil, leading her to a path of self-discovery and greater honesty in her relationships. She emphasizes that presence and authenticity are essential in fostering healthy connections, and that some relationships may not be compatible due to nervous system incompatibility. The speaker also reflects on past experiences where graceful exits from relationships allowed for personal growth and increased self-trust. Overall, the discussion highlights the importance of self-awareness, authenticity, and nervous system regulation in building and maintaining healthy relationships.

    • Revolutionize Relationships with Nervous System IntelligenceTaking responsibility for one's nervous system health and using NSI tools can lead to deeper connection, improved communication, and increased pleasure in relationships and personal growth.

      Taking responsibility for one's nervous system health and understanding its unique needs can revolutionize relationships. By engaging with Nervous System Intelligence (NSI) tools and making them one's own, individuals can tailor practices for their specific needs, leading to deeper connection, improved communication, and increased pleasure. The exploration of NSI in relationships, sexuality practices, and personal growth holds immense potential, allowing us to create new magic and become experts of our own nervous systems. Stay tuned for further conversations on this topic and the impact of nervous system health on various types of relationships.

    Stress Response In Relationship

    Stress Response In Relationship

    This week on Trauma Rewired, hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth welcome back Matt Bush of Next Level Neuro to explore the physiology of stress and the transformative power of neurosomatic intelligence.

    We know that connection is crucial to our survival as humans, but for those with complex trauma, even the healthiest relationships can trigger a stress response and lead to maladaptive behaviors. This episode provides a comprehensive look at how stress impacts our relationships and physical health, and highlights the importance of consistent nervous system training to rewire the brain’s response to stress and build resilience.

    The conversion starts by examining what happens in the brain when a stress response is activated, and how developmental trauma shapes our nervous system and subconscious reactions as adults. Matt breaks down complex neurological processes, covering the role of the HPA axis, immune dysregulation and increased inflammation. Jennifer also introduces a new concept, called “shameflammation,” as they delve into the connection between chronic stress and disease in the body.

    Listen to this episode to learn more about stress response in relationships and how you can retrain it through NSI!

    Topics discussed in this episode:

     

    • Understanding the HPA axis and stress response

    • How developmental trauma shapes our stress response

    • General adaptation response and the impact of stress on the body

    • Shame and the inflammatory response

    • The neurological response to stress

    • The connection between social threat, inflammation and stress response

    The Neurology of Empathy

    The Neurology of Empathy

    Believe it or not, empaths and narcissists have foundational similarities. Not only does the brain chemistry look the same, but empaths and narcissists both struggle with nervous system regulation and look to others to help them regulate their emotions. But whereas the narcissist avoids the emotions of others, empaths are deeply affected and have a physiological experience to the emotions of others on a subconscious level. This can lead to emotional fatigue, chronic stress, poor sense of self and more.

    So what’s the difference between having empathy and being an empath, and how can you change subconscious behavior? In this episode, Elisabeth, Jennifer and Matt cover the signs of being an empath, the causes of elevated empathy, such as deficits in the interoceptive system, and how it impacts our overall health.

    If you identify as an empath, tune in to learn about the power of nervous system regulation for changing harmful empath behavior!

    Topics discussed in this episode:

     

    • What it means to be an empath

    Healing The Relationship To Our Body

    Relationship to the Body

    Season 03, Episode 30

    Our bodies are always speaking to us, but often we’re not able to understand or listen to what they’re trying to communicate.

    In this episode, hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth unpack the complexities of our relationship to the body, including how our perceptions, emotions and beliefs about our bodies significantly impact our overall well-being. They dive deep into the impact the interoceptive system has on the nervous system, emotions and behaviors, especially in relation to disordered eating and body dysmorphia.

    Jennifer and Elisabeth explore how past traumas shape our body image and inhibit our ability to express emotions safely through the body, sharing their own journeys from the cycle of maladaptive behaviors to loving acceptance.

    Tune in to hear their insights into having a healthier, more compassionate relationship with your body!

    Topics discussed in this episode:

     

    • Exploring the relationship to the body
    • How we develop our body image
    • Interoceptive awareness and our ability to connect to the body
    • The connection between trauma and the relationship to the body
    • Understanding body dysmorphia and dissociation
    • Sensory mismatch in relation to body dysmorphia
    • The emotional aspect of the relationship to the body
    • Building a healthier relationship to the body

    Healing Dissociation

    Healing Dissociation

    “You can’t be present and dissociated at the same time.”

    These wise words from co-host Jennifer Wallace encompasses why this topic is so important to explore. Presence is the truth of our emotions and our reality, because we cannot heal what we do not feel. Being present with our emotions, and feeling them in our body, allows us to truly understand and heal our nervous system in ways that dissociating from the body cannot.

    This is a powerful conversation highlighting what goes on in the brain and nervous system when we dissociate, and how this protective mechanism can become maladaptive when its original function no longer serves us. There is a way to overcome dissociation and authentically feel emotions in the body to truly heal.

    In this episode, Elisabeth Kristoff and Jennifer Wallace deep dive into dissociation and its characteristics. The discussion begins with defining what dissociation is and how it is learned at an early age as a protective mechanism, followed by unraveling how dissociation shows up in the brain, specifically which brain structures are involved in disassociation, as well as the connection between the vagus nerve and the interoceptive system as it pertains to dissociation.

    It’s not enough to just understand these concepts intellectually, the real healing happens when we can experience them, which means feeling them in our bodies. That’s where Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching comes in, where we teach you the tools you need to heal the whole self, and move out of dissociation and into the body in a safe way.

    Tune in for this and more!

    Topics discussed in this episode:

     

    • Definition of dissociation

    • How dissociation is on a spectrum

    • The protective aspects of dissociation

    • How dissociation gets wired in the brain from an early age

    • The function of the thalamus and how it’s related to dissociation

    • The deep connection between the vagus nerve and the interoceptive system

    • How the brain makes predictions based on our past experiences

    • The possibility to train in new protective skills that are not maladaptive

    • Knowing about the  nervous system is not the same as experiencing it

    • Spiritual bypassing and dissociation 

    • The importance of presence in understanding the truth of emotions

    Self Abandonment of Complex Post Traumatic Stress

    Self Abandonment of Complex Post Traumatic Stress

    The essence of who we are radiates when we live in our purpose. When we can connect with our true self and share it with others. There are many blockers stopping us from being able to express our feelings, or even know what we’re experiencing, and one of them is self abandonment.

     

    Don’t let the “self” fool you — sometimes, we unintentionally abandon ourselves because of the survival responses born as a result of trauma. Until healing begins, we can get stuck living through learned patterns of ignoring our own needs in favor of others around us, suppressing feelings to protect ourselves from the neglect of others, and rejecting our intuition.

     

    Trauma Rewired host, Jennifer, and Elisabeth Kristof of Brain-Based Wellness are finishing the CPTSD series by discussing this final component of CPTSD: self abandonment. They talk about the ways we abandon ourselves through the lens of their own experiences, and how it manifests in a cycle of self-abuse and shame.

     

    If you find yourself disregarding your own health and happiness, tune in to understand this component of CPTSD and how healing is possible!

     

    Topics discussed in this episode:

     

    • Jennifer shares a recent story of self abandonment

    • Elisabeth defints self abandonment

    • Dissociation as a survival response

    • The effects of parentification

    • Healing self abandonment

    • How all the components of CPTSD work together

    • Becoming an expert of your nervous system

    • Toxic stress and disease

    • Learning to say “no” and self-regulate

    • The power of self-expression

    Social Anxiety of Complex Post traumatic Stress

    Social Anxiety of Complex Post traumatic Stress

    The term social anxiety gets tossed around a lot these days, however individuals with CPTS who experience social anxiety feel its effects on a visceral level. It can be highly debilitating and can affect the way we relate and connect to others, when the need for connection is at the very core of what makes us human.

    Knowing if you actually have social anxiety can be tricky, especially if there are socially acceptable coping mechanisms like overconsumption of substances involved. The proof is in the nervous system outputs, such as migraines, pain, exhaustion, or binge eating, after every social event. As well as, if these outputs cause you to refrain from being in social settings all together. At these times, it's important to reflect on whether you're genuinely comfortable in social situations or if social anxiety may be at play.

    In today’s episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer explore the world of social anxiety, specifically what signs in your nervous system to look out for if you suspect you have social anxiety, the difference between social anxiety and being socially awkward, the role substance use plays, how your attachment style can indicate your level of social anxiety, and how to repattern the nervous system using NSI tools to overcome social anxiety, and much more.

    As humans, we need to connect to others, and we need relationships to thrive. Social anxiety can impede these very human needs, however there is a way around it. It is possible to change how your nervous system takes in information, and change the way it reacts to that information, using simple tools to rewire and regulate.

    Tune in to hear how and more!


    Topics discussed in this episode:

     

    • What is social anxiety?

    • The nervous system outputs associated with social anxiety

    • Substance use and social anxiety

    • How the inner critic and toxic shame shows up in social anxiety

    • What is hypervigilance?

    • Physiological reasons why stress in social situations can cause protective outputs

    • How ADHD and social anxiety overlap

    • How attachment styles are related to social anxiety

    • Repatterning the nervous system to experience new outputs using NSI

    Toxic Shame Of Complex Post Traumatic Stress

    Toxic Shame Of Complex Post Traumatic Stress

    As a human, you have most likely felt shame to some degree. Although it is a normal human protective emotion to keep us safe on a societal level, shame can become toxic when it persists and when we internalize the critical narrative from that shame.

    Toxic shame shows up in many ways, however, the way it shows up physiologically is understood the least, but the most telling. From posture, dilated pupils, tense muscles, to inflammation in the body, headaches, and diseases, it is possible to visibly see shame on a person’s body. This is a result of the body protecting itself, and there is no shame in that. However once it becomes maladaptive, and absolute “I am” statements start becoming permanent fixtures in rumination, one’s perception of self shifts, which can eventually cause serious mental and physical health issues.

    On today’s episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer discuss how toxic shame differs from regular shame, how toxic shame shows up, what happens in the body when it does, where toxic shame originates from, how shame and pleasure shows up in those with a history of childhood sexual abuse, and what you can do to recognize and repattern toxic shame with Neuro-Somatic Coaching.

    Just as toxic shame is developed, it can be undeveloped, by learning how to recognize when and how it shows up in the body, then repatterning the neural pathways in real time using NSI tools, and allowing repressed emotions to mobilize.

    This episode is filled with knowledge and insight you don’t want to miss. Tune in for this and more!


    Topics discussed in this episode:

     

    • The difference between guilt and shame
    • Difference between regular shame and toxic shame
    • How toxic shame affects posture
    • How shame is a protective response
    • What is shame inflammation and its correlation to disease states?
    • Why mobilizing the body is crucial to process emotions
    • What is emotional attunement?
    • Overcoupling of shame and pleasure in the case of childhood sexual abuse
    • The types of body boundary violations
    • What to do if you are having a toxic shame response?
    • Why it’s important for practitioners to understand when a client is in a shame response
    • Repattering shame in real time

    Attachment Styles Can Change and Are a Lens That Filters Relationships

    Attachment Styles Can Change and Are a Lens That Filters Relationships

    When a child’s needs aren’t being met by their caregiver, by not being fed or feeling safe, they develop a distorted view of relationships. This attachment schema is the lens through which they examine the behavior of others, impacting their ability to form relationships and lead a healthy, happy life.

    In past episodes, hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth have talked about connection being one of our survival needs, but an insecure attachment directly challenges this need. Being close to others, feeling vulnerable and connected, can also be very dysregulating to those who learned to survive with unemotional or unreliable caregivers.

    So, how can you overcome your learned patterns to create healthy relationships with yourself and others? The answer is nervous system training.

    In this episode, Jennifer and Elisabeth will walk you through attachment schema, how the three insecure attachment styles develop and show up as behavioral outputs, and how nervous system regulation has helped them work toward lasting change.

    Tune in for all this and more!

    Topics discussed in this episode:

     

    • Attachment style from the NSI perspective

    • How insecure attachment schema affects social development

    • Nervous system regulation as a way to change our patterns

    • The areas of the brain responsible for creating neuro tags

    • How the 3 insecure attachment styles develop and are expressed

    • Misconceptions about avoidant attachment style

    • Disorganized attachment and complex trauma

    Fawn & Sexual Fawn

    Fawn & Sexual Fawn

    The four trauma responses are the brain’s way of protecting us from threat, real or perceived. They are noncognitive, reflexive outputs that are deeply ingrained in those that have experienced trauma, which makes them incredibly difficult responses to rewire. In this episode, we explore the most dangerous F: fawn and sexual fawn response.

    To help us dive deeper into fawn response, we’re joined by Luis Mojica, somatics practitioner and the founder of Holistic Life Navigation. Hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth have personally learned a lot from his teachings, including how the nervous system responds to fawn and the body boundary violations that occur with sexual fawning.

    During this episode, Luis goes over the concept of over coupling, specifically how fear merges with intimacy and threat with arousal because of developmental sexual trauma. Luis also touches on the difference between threat and trigger, how the body can be traumatized sexually without the presence of assault, and MORE.

    Tune in to learn how you can let go of shame attached to fawn response, recognize your fawn patterns, and start to heal!

    Topics discussed in this episode:

     

    • The development of over coupling after developmental sexual trauma

    • Fawn response from a neurosomatic perspective

    • Shame as a protective mechanism and how to reframe it 

    • How to become self-aware of your fawning

    • Trigger versus threat

    • Differentiation between sexual fawning and arousal

    • Fawning and freeze as a hybrid response

    • Lying as a trauma response

    • Finding compassion during healing

    • Body boundary violations in sexual fawning

    We first explored this question in Season 2 and felt it was necessary to revisit; with more altitude, updated research and further along in our healing journeys. 

    In this episode, hosts Elisabeth Kristof and Jennifer Wallace dive deep into the realm of Complex Post Traumatic Stress, or CPTS, exploring the complexities of trauma and the impact on our nervous systems. We offer a comprehensive understanding of its five key components. The hosts share practical tools and emphasize the importance of healing and understanding our own nervous systems. 

    Join us as we re-examine the language surrounding complex trauma and discuss the potential for real change and healing. We unpack its somatic and neurological effects, share practical tools for healing, challenge traditional perspectives on trauma, and empower you to cultivate a resilient nervous system. This conversation sheds light on how trauma affects not only emotions, but also posture, movement abilities, and overall brain function. Together, let's embark on a journey of self-understanding, compassion, and intentional neurosomatic rehabilitation
