Attachment is the Root of Complex Trauma

Our last episode introduced the brain as a social organ, and how this topic relates to the neurobiology of relationships. Today, we dive deeper into how the brain develops through social interactions, why social connection is a survival need, and what happens in the body when we experience connection with other people.

Matt Bush is joining Jennifer and Elisabeth to discuss the impact of trauma on the brain’s functioning, and therefore, our relationships, expression, sense of safety, and overall health. They talk about what happens when you’re not primed for connection in childhood, how the brain is wired to be part of the social structure in relationships, what part of the brain guides us toward dysregulation and protective outputs, and lots more.

If any of this sounds confusing, be sure to listen for Matt’s definitions of attachment schema and C-PTSD from a neurosomatic perspective, which make it easier to understand how these systems and inputs come together for integration.

You’ll also finally learn why complex trauma is an attachment would, and most importantly, that change is possible and how you can get started NOW. Tune in for all this and more!

Topics discussed in this episode:

The impact of attachment patterns on brain function
How the brain develops through social interactions
The role of the insular cortex
John Bowlby’s attachment theory
How a mother’s nervous system impacts a child’s
The resiliency of our nervous system
Attachment styles and Bowlby’s experiment
Matt’s neurosomatic definition of attachment schema and C-PTSD
How we can rewire attachment

Chronic Pain & Emotions

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

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

Emotional Repression vs Healthy Expression, Anger

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
Emotional repression and abandonment
Responses of suppression vs. repression
Consequences to the nervous system
Damage to the interoceptive system
Finding a safe space to work through emotions
Anger as a communication tool and expression
Effects on the immune system
The use of plant medicine and epigenetics

Healing Autoimmune in Two Worlds: Plants & Western Medicine

Trauma Rewired has addressed many issues that arise when trauma is stored in the body for years, decades, or even a lifetime. One of them is that this type of chronic stress can lead to autoimmune diseases, heart disease and more, as well as intensify pain experienced from these serious health issues.

A dysregulated nervous system resulting from trauma leads to emotional and physical pain, but how do you heal yourself from trauma, while also fighting for your physical health? Tune in to hear how both plant medicine and Western treatments can work together to heal the different facets of your health.

It’s been two years since Anna Gieselman was on the podcast to speak about her lupus journey, an autoimmune disease, but she’s back today to update us! In this episode, she shares the lows and highs of getting to a better place with her health, including making the decision to use Western medicine and becoming healed energetically and psychically with plant medicine.

Jennifer and Anna go over pivotal moments of their ayahuasca trip, such as experiencing a dark energy, healing generational trauma, and the divine feminine. Listen to their conversation about overall wellness for all this and more!
