#rest

No person exemplifies the healing power of music more than today’s guest, Toni Jones. A former life coach, Toni wanted to create a tool for clients to improve well-being, leading to the birth of affirmation music.

True growth often comes after a period of breaking down, and this was true for Toni during her healing journey through music. In this episode, she shares the profound transformation she underwent after periods of vulnerability and self-discovery. She delves into the cycles of death and rebirth in the healing process, highlighting the need for emotional practices that support emotional processing, personal growth, and renewal.

Toni discusses “The Living Room Experience,” her project that fosters community healing and brings a sense of belonging to people through shared experiences. The concept of community healing also comes into play during our conversation on sisterhood and feminine energy, both playing a crucial role in improving relationships and building a support system.

We briefly talked about the death cycle of winter and rebirth in the “Trauma & the Holidays” episode, but today, Trauma Rewired is addressing how trauma inhibits our ability to rest — which is a crucial element to healing and changing maladaptive behaviors.

 

Hosts Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristoff of Brain-Based Wellness discuss the consequences of poor rest, including derailing the brain’s functioning. Similar to when you’re fatigued and at your full capacity, constantly running on high alert can make us more susceptible to triggers and result in stress responses.

 

Most of us already know that sleep is necessary for our overall health and wellbeing, but letting the mind and body truly rest is also crucial to healing. Memory integration and nervous system regulation are infinitely harder to achieve when we don’t leave time for rest and recovery.

 

Tune in to learn why slowing down is sometimes hard to do, and how to support yourself in the process!

 

Topics discussed in this episode:

 

• How trauma affects our internal states
• Why rest is crucial to our health, but can also feel threatening
• Actions Elisabeth is taking to change her behaviors and let herself rest
• Reasons it’s difficult to rest and recover, and its effects
• The loop of trauma and inability to rest
• Trauma and Stress responses
• Experiences with insomnia
• Is rest a privilege?
