#neuroplasticity

Our latest episode dives deep into the transformative power of Neurosomatic Intelligence (NSI) and its potential to ripple positive change across communities. 

We explore how understanding the nervous system can sharpen our existing strengths, address our weaknesses, and cultivate resilience. By intentionally training our nervous systems, we’re not just enhancing our personal health but fostering a connectedness that benefits the larger society.

Whether you're a therapist, coach, or simply someone invested in personal development, this episode is packed with insights to help you harness the power of your nervous system for more effective and empathetic interactions. The discussion emphasizes the significance of understanding and intentionally training the nervous system for better outcomes as well as exploring the interplay between emotions and behaviors.

NSI brings a holistic approach that acknowledges the complexities of trauma, emphasizing safety, calibration, and the importance of dosage in therapeutic practice. We aim to provide practical tools for practitioners working with the nervous systems of their clients, ensuring that interventions are tailored to individual needs. Our goal is to not only impact individual well-being but also catalyze social change by being trauma-informed and fostering an environment where everyone can thrive.

Hosts Elisabeth and Jennifer are joined by Matt Bush, a lead educator from the NSI certification course. 

In this episode we discuss:

• What is Neuro-Somatic Intelligence?
• Who is this course for?
• The importance of a trauma-informed approach
• Practical Tools for therapists, coaches, therapists, and community healers
• The imapct of the nervous system on thoughts, feelings, and behaviors

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
• Empathy from a neurosomatic perspective
• Causes of high empathy
• Why being an empath isn’t always a good thing
• How deficits in the interoceptive system lead to empath behavior
• The correlation between sensory mismatch and empathy
• How to retain your empathic gifts and also prioritize yourself
• Nervous system regulation as a tool for change

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

Have you ever wondered why you always end up in the same type of relationships? Or why so many of the people in your life cause you stress? This episode looks at relational patterns through the lens of neurosomatic intelligence, exploring how childhood experiences shape our relationships and, often subconsciously, guide us towards familiar dynamics that are harmful to our health and happiness.

They discuss the importance of understanding our subconscious patterns, cultivating safety, and building a system of support for paving the way for true change and healing.

By the end of this episode, you’ll understand how to work with your nervous system to heal and create new, healthy relationships with others and yourself. Tune in now!

Topics discussed in this episode:

 

• Unhealthy relational patterns and our health
• Impact of early childhood experiences on relational patterns
• How emotional neglect and abuse shape relational patterns
• Toxic relationship patterns from a neurosomatic perspective

“Impaired integration is such a hallmark of the traumatized brain. It disrupts our ability to balance our nervous system. Neurobiologist Dan Siegel says that at its very essence, the purpose of trauma therapy is to restore brain integration.”

 

On today’s episode, co-hosts Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristoff of Brain-Based Wellness discuss the neurological impacts of trauma, specifically how disassociation and fragmentation affect our brain integration. They’re joined by Matt Bush of Next Level Neuro and co-founder of the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching Certification Program.

 

Expect to understand more about how early childhood trauma results in brain dysfunction, shapes our basic functioning and filtration systems, and can overpower the cognitive mind. You’ll also learn what reintegrating memories actually means, and why integration is the key to healing.

 

Trauma Rewired has mentioned many times that without integration, long-lasting change is difficult, but without the survival brain and emotional brain working together, integration, specifically vertical integration, is impossible. This may sound overwhelming, but the good news change IS possible because of neuroplasticity.

 

If you want a deep understanding of vertical integration and how trauma affects the developing brain, tune in to learn more!

 

Tune in to hear how neurosomatic intelligence can help get you to integrate and regulate your nervous system!

 

Topics discussed in this episode:

 

• Defining complex trauma from a neurosomatic perspective

• Effects of trauma on brain development

• Dissociation and fragmentation of self

• Memory integration and why people feel “stuck”

• Real examples of trauma responses overpowering their cognitive brain

• Dissociating from the different parts of your self

• What is vertical integration?

• How developmental trauma affects vertical integration

• Dysregulation between the brains left and right hemispheres  

• The SAID Principle in realtion to nervous system imbalance 
• Benefits of learning more about trauma and the brain
