As we dive deeper into applied neurology and the immune system, we’re joined by the founder of Stop Chasing Pain, Dr. Bruce Perry. He helps us explore the link between emotion, pain and its impact on the immune system.

In this episode, Dr. Perry shares his personal experience with polyautoimmunity as he discusses his experience treating his own shame surrounding his body image. With his expertise, we explore the subconscious and conscious role of emotions, as well as the body’s natural response to threats, including how we can fight inflammation even when it’s an unintentional effect of our emotional responses.

Dr. Perry, along with hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth, provide insights on how you can work with the nervous system to create long-lasting change that impacts the health of your immune system. You’ll learn how trauma can dysregulate the nervous system, the importance of self-awareness, and what you can do to nurture social connection and introspection.

Tune in as we explore the consequences of trauma on our body, as well as inflammation from a neurosomatic perspective!

Topics discussed in this episode:

 

• How Dr. Perry got into this work

• The way in which we process sensory input

• Self-awareness and its role in lasting change

• Understanding the nervous system and its reaction to stimuli

• Shame and how it leads to inflammation

• Pain as a protective response

• Allostatic load and alleviating stress

• What happens in the body during shame/inflammatory response

• Where to learn more about lymphatic work

Trauma Rewired has talked a lot about threat, including its neurobiology, what happens in the body when we don’t feel safe, and how a history of trauma affects what we perceive as a threat.

In this episode with Victor Jones, a resilience educator and neurosomatic intelligence coach, we dive deeper into threat, focusing on our relationship with others and society as a whole, as well as how trauma impacts our ability to regulate our nervous system. For example, connection is a survival need but feelings of vulnerability and intimacy can be threatening to the nervous system of those with a history of trauma. This inability to connect not only affects the health of an individual, but also the bond and trust within society.

The good news is that neurosomatic intelligence is a powerful tool that can help you settle your nervous system, allow you to connect, and live a life in line with your ethics. As we cover topics like stacked trauma and co-regulation, Victor and hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth all share their personal journeys to feeling safe in their body, and regulating their nervous system when they experience threat — something that’s nearly impossible to avoid in our dysregulating world.

Victor advocates for everyone to learn the language of the nervous system, teaching NSI tools to help people in his community in the hopes of driving more compassion in our world.

If you want to get out of survival mode and start helping others around you too, tune in now!

Topics discussed in this episode:

 

• Victor’s and Elisabeth’s journey to discovering NSI

• How Victor’s childhood affected his relationship with himself and the world

• The threat and safety of finding connection

• The consequences of being consistently exposed to threat

• Nervous system regulation as a means to help yourself and others

• How Victor is bringing NSI tools into the community

• How NSI work can help first responders and high-trauma fields

How do you show up in the world, in relationships, at work? Even just sitting in a sauna. Can you safely say you are fully present in these situations? If you feel you aren’t present most of the time, you’re not alone. Most people aren’t, especially if you’ve experienced complex trauma. On the bright side, presence can be learned by using the right tools to get you there.

Presence is a topic that is near and dear to our hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth’s hearts, precisely because of how they both struggled to be present after experiencing trauma, but also the gift presence provided them in all aspects of life once re-learned.

In today’s episode, Jennifer and Elisabeth discuss how not being present, repressing emotions and dissociation can lead to health issues and deteriorate relationships. While offering the tools required to become present to live a fulfilling and healthy life with secure attachment styles in relationships.

This episode dives deep into the science behind presence as well as what happens when you are in your body for the first time in a long time and how using the tools provided in the NSI training can help. Understanding how your brain operates when it is fully present and how it affects your body, while having tools to help you get there, can literally put years back on to your life.

Tune in for this and more!

Topics discussed in this episode:

 

• How Jennifer and Elisabeth define presence

• Why presence is important for healing complex traumas

• Empowerment that comes from presence

• How presence is a time expander

• What is a trigger?

• How intentional training can lead to presence

• The time it takes to cultivate full presence in the body

• The struggle behind showing up in the world differently

• Health implications behind repressed emotion and not being present

• One big reason to start being present: a study on telomeres

• Why it is important to work with your interoceptive system

• Re-patterning of relationship attachment style

We’re excited to be back for our third season of Trauma Rewired! In this short episode, Jennifer and Elisabeth give a quick overview of what you can expect from this new season that’s centered around attachment and relationships.

 

Last season focused on the individual nervous system, laying the groundwork for this season’s exploration of how our nervous systems exist together. This season breaks down issues of attachment in our development and relationships, as well as how the experiences within our communities, in society, and with each other affect our health. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of topics like codependency, narcissism, empathy, and misattunement.

 

Plus, several exciting guests will be appearing on the show to help us talk about the impact of the vagus nerve on our social connections, our theory that complex trauma is an attachment wound, and more.

 

Tune in and get ready to start exploring these concepts in our first episode on the Neurobiology of Relationships and Attachment!

 

Topics discussed in this episode:

 

• Topics we’ll be covering in Season 3

• New and old guests we’ve invited on the show

• How we prepared and recovered for Season 3

Our society rewards those who work hard, appear to never make mistakes, and seem to have everything under control. We’ve collectively decided on what perfect looks like and attributed perfectionism with the ideal person.

What if we told you that perfectionism is actually a protective measure used to prevent oneself from feelings of rejection, abandonment, and worthlessness? These words don’t quite scream “perfect” do they?

 

Trauma Rewired hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth have touched upon this trauma response before, but today’s episode is a deep dive into how it can develop and lead to harmful avoidance behaviors. They deconstruct perfectionism, including defining the three types of perfectionism and how it interplays with CPTSD elements like the inner critic.

 

You’ll learn the many health consequences that the chronic stress of perfectionism can cause, and how to distinguish excellence from perfectionism. Jennifer and Elisabeth also share their experience with perfectionism, and how it can push us into burnout or freeze states.

 

Perfectionism is not an attainable goal, which makes it debilitating and a hindrance to healing trauma. To take the first step towards moving out of perfectionism, tune in!

 

Topics discussed in this episode:

 

• Defining the 3 types of perfectionism

• Perfectionism as a trauma response

• Jennifer’s example of setting yourself up for failure

• The effects of perfectionism on our health

• Maladaptive coping mechanisms for perfectionism

• How to recognize perfectionist behaviors and thinking

• Jennifer on taking action against her perfectionism

• Trauma healing, neurosomatic intelligence, and integration

• Limiting beliefs push the loop of perfectionism

• Elisabeth on the importance on self-regulation tools in her life

• How perfectionism negatively affects organizations and employees

• Steps Elisabeth has taken to heal her perfectionism and workaholism

Why can it be so hard to feel and express emotions? What happens physiologically in the brain and nervous system when anger is stuffed down? Is emotional expression necessary for our physical health? Have these topics been studied, or can we only go off our own experiences?

 

Hosts Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristoff, and Matt Bush of Next Level Neuro are answering all these questions and more. They break down the ways people with childhood trauma develop repressive behaviors, why emotional expression is crucial for our overall health, and the consequences of emotional repression in the nervous system.

 

Since repression is a subconscious defense mechanism, it affects our behavior and belief patterns, and changes our perception without us even realizing it. This makes it incredibly hard to change, but after listening to this episode, you’ll better understand how emotional repression impacts the different systems in the body and the power of nervous system regulation.

 

Tune in to learn how this knowledge can help you or your practice as a healer!

 

Topics discussed in this episode:

 

• Why emotional expression is important for our health

• How childhood trauma affects our capacity to feel and express emotion
