#neuroscience

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
• Uncover how a holistic appraoch to your nervous system can reshape your world to create lasting, postivie change.

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

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
• Neurosomatic intelligence as a tool for change

Hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth jump right into this season’s theme of attachment by discussing the neurobiology of relationships, covering our development from the womb to forming attachments throughout our life.

 

Using the work of Louis Cozolino in his book, The Neuroscience of Human Relationships: Attachment and the Developing Social Brain, this episode explores the concepts of the social synapse and our brains as social organs. You’ll learn how the brain and nervous system evolved to help us communicate, the impact of dysregulation on relationships, and how attachment styles develop and affect social connection.

 

By the end of this episode, expect to also have a better understanding of how the brain and nervous system work together, the physiological signals that shape our reality and health, why attachment is a survival need, and MORE.

 

Tune in to discover the power you have to train your nervous system and change your relationship patterns!

 

Topics discussed in this episode:

 

• Louis Cozolino’s social synapse and the brain’s development

• An example of how trauma affects attachment
