About Alison Leitheiser Everyone has their own challenges, but when I was 16, mine stopped me in my tracks! I had seizures, fatigue, organ damage and paralysis. I could not move from the neck down. A virus had gotten into my spinal cord and I became quadriplegic. Unwilling to accept my seat on the sidelines, I wanted to participate in life more and spent two decades learning and healing. My experiences changed the course of my life as I found a passion for helping others find hope and healing. I started my road as an alternative health care practitioner in 2002, started my own clinical practice in 2009 and today I love working with people's health challenges and helping them find their way to wellness. Now I want to give that experience of feeling better, help you to participate in life more and reclaim your health!

What is a neurotypical world? Here at Trauma Rewired, we don’t believe it exists. As humans, we are biodynamic, unique, individuals that process the world around us differently. So understanding how that happens is key to unlocking our healing potential. Complex trauma adds another layer to the mix, which we believe is not separate from neurodivergence. The “extra” neural pathways reinforced by traumatic events to keep us safe is what shapes the neurodivergent spectrum. On today’s episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer are joined by founder of Next Level Neuro, Matt Bush, to discuss how complex trauma IS neurodivergence. They take a deep dive into what goes on in the brain during development and when traumatic events happen, that result in shaping our neurodivergent superpowers. They also discuss how to hone in and take control of these unique nuances to better share our gifts with the world. Although we cannot change our past experiences, we can change how we process sensory information and rewire the brain to reinterpret triggers that may not be helpful. Through proper dosing of NSI tools, we want to show you how you can achieve that. So tune in to learn about this and more! Topics discussed in this episode: Does a neurotypical world exist? How neurodivergence effects sensory processing CPTS is ongoing relational trauma during development How everyone’s neurodivergence is experienced differently on a spectrum The chemical change that happens in the brain during stress responses The energy cost of self care and healing Rewiring the brain go reinterpret triggers Why does understanding how we process trauma matter?

There is a staggering number of adults with ADHD, autism, and neurodivergence, who have yet to be diagnosed. Even in the age of information, many adults don’t realize they are wired differently until their children are diagnosed. This can create all sorts of issues in the nervous system for these folks, by suppressing, repressing, masking their true selves, and feelings of inadequacy can take a toll. This is why a diagnosis is so important when it comes to these types of disorders, because once we can name and identify what is going on in our mind and body, we can learn how to work with our unique wiring and turn what once felt like a burden into a gift. On today’s episode, our hosts Elisabeth and Jennifer are joined by clinical psychologist, researcher, and writer, Dr. Megan Anna Neff. They discuss neurodivergence, autism, ADHD, and its intricacies in children, adults, and the power of a diagnosis. They also discuss how these disorders can be easily masked, hidden behind feelings of inadequacy and unworthiness, and there is an eye opening discussion about how neurodivergence is complex trauma. We are just learning about how prevalent these disorders are, and how diagnosing them can be a challenge, especially in certain groups of people who have become really skilled at masking their symptoms. This is why these discussions are so important, especially with an expert like Dr. Megan Anna Neff, so we can understand ourselves and others on a deeper level and without judgment. Tune in for this and more! Topics discussed in this episode: Dr. Megan Anna Neff’s diagnosis journey The benefits of an autism diagnosis The impact of our disconnection from our humanness Is complex trauma a neurodivergence? Identifying with a neurodivergent diagnosis Dr. Megan Anna Nef’s first signs of neurodivergence Negative self talk that comes with neurodivergence How dissociation can be related to high sensitivity What is alexithymia and who does it affect?

In a society where we are encouraged, and sometimes forced to conform, life can become quite dysregulating for neurodivergent people. Feeling misunderstood, not good enough, or wanting to fit in, suppresses a person’s ability to be in full self-expression and wreaks havoc on the nervous system. The isolation and shame associated with being neurodivergent can create its own protective outputs, adding another layer to the neurodivergent lens. However, our diversity and differences are what makes us special, which should be celebrated and integrated, not suppressed or corrected to meet a certain standard. On today’s episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer go over neurodivergence and how NSI can be a great tool to regulate, accept, and integrate the unique and diverse abilities of neurodivergent people. Our hosts explain what neurodivergence is and touch on the stigma attached to it, as well as the disparities among genders and people of color when it comes to diagnosing neurodivergence. They also highlight the invaluable skills and strengths of neurodivergent people and their need in our society. Neurodivergence is so common, yet so misunderstood. If we can learn to accept ourselves just the way we are, we can offer our gifts to the world, which is so incredibly valuable. By rewiring how we talk to ourselves and our beliefs around what it means to be different in this way, we can walk a path toward healing and creating a more inclusive, diverse, and beautiful society. Be sure to tune in to hear this and more! Topics discussed in this episode: What is neurodivergence? Neurodiversity vs. neurodivergence Neurodivergence and concurrent mental health disorders The stigma attached to neurodivergence and its implications Underdiagnosis and misdiagnosis disparities within populations What is neurotypical? ACE scores and neurodivergence Negative self talk and inner criticism associated with neurodivergence Invaluable skills and strengths related to neurodivergence Mimicking neurotypical behavior as a coping mechanism Common physical dysfunctions from stress overload Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/ Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the fall cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

Our beliefs about ourselves and the world are so deeply ingrained in our being that every sensory input is filtered through the lens of these beliefs. Beliefs like, “I am not enough” or “I am unworthy”, can create maladaptive emotions, behaviors, or thoughts, and can cause a ton of stress on our nervous systems and result in illness or disease, especially when that belief is misaligned with who we truly are. Addressing our core beliefs and how they have shaped our identity, is so important to understanding how our nervous systems process the world around us. In this episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer are joined by a special guest, Piper Rose. Piper is a NeuroSomatic Relationship and Intimacy Coach, licenced hypnotherapist, and transformative ritualist, who owns and operates Shadow Play Coaching. Piper joins our hosts to discuss where beliefs live in our brains and how they’re formed, as well as their impact on our identities. They also discuss how receiving a diagnosis can be either a liberating experience or soaked in shame through identifying with what being diagnosed means to the self and others. To change a belief that isn’t serving us is so important in the healing process. It is the key to creating safety in the body and the precursor to living an authentic life in alignment. The good news is change is possible, and it happens by working with the nervous system, and we want to show you how. So tune in to today’s episode to learn about this and more! Topics discussed in this episode: Where do beliefs live in our brains? How beliefs are patterned The questions our brains are always asking us How core beliefs impact our identity The relational aspect of how our sense of self is created Why we self abandon The liberation and shame around identifying with a diagnosis Why belief change is so important How to work on the nervous system to change beliefs about oneself To learn more about Piper Rose and Shadow Play coaching, head to https://piperrosecoaching.com/ Connect with Piper on Instagram by heading to https://www.instagram.com/shadowplaycoaching/ Come join us at our first ever Trauma Rewired in-person retreat by heading to https://www.thenatureofmindbody.com/book-online Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/ Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the fall cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

In a society that often equates our worth with productivity, focusing on rest and recovery can feel unsafe, potentially leading to increased stress in both our minds and bodies. By challenging the need to be constantly productive and redefining our relationship with rest, we can uncover a common theme: doing more doesn’t always equate to achieving more. Whether that is career success, finances, healing, etc. Actually, the opposite can be true: the more we rest, the more productive we are able to be. In today’s episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer invite entrepreneur, best-selling author, and mother of two, Kate Northrup, to discuss how crucial rest and recovery are for the success of our businesses, families, and overall well-being. They emphasize the importance of feeling safe when resting, especially for those who may not be accustomed to it due to past experiences with rest, or lack thereof, shaped by family or societal influences. Kate also touches on her frameworks discussed in her book Do Less, and how they can help reframe how we view rest. It’s no wonder our society is burnt out and exhausted when we are constantly told that we aren’t doing enough, often pushing ourselves to the brink. It can feel like an uphill battle trying to keep up or excel, especially while exhausted. Collectively, our nervous systems are in need of a gentle touch, which requires rest, whether that is passive or active. So we want to give you a peek into the importance of priming your nervous system for rest and reframing how to incorporate rest into your life today. Join us to learn about this and more! Topics discussed in this episode: Why Kate Northrup wrote her book “Do Less”? How sleep is crucial for emotional wellbeing The lack of felt safety to rest in business Passive rest vs. active rest Tapping into the cyclical nature of being human Kate’s regenerative farming metaphor for rest in life and business What is Pareto’s principle and how Kate used it in her business Kate’s Upward Cycle of Success framework Toxic patriarchy and its influence on how the lack of rest is rewarded Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the spring cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com If you would like a sneak peak into Kate Northrup's principles, send her a DM on Instagram with the word “MELT” to receive a FREE guide: https://www.instagram.com/katenorthrup/ Visit Kate’s website to connect or learn more about her programs: https://katenorthrup.com/ Check out Kate’s podcast “Plenty” by visiting https://katenorthrup.com/plenty/ Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/ Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

Depression is one of the most researched mood disorders, but if we look a bit deeper into how depression is able to develop, it is more nuanced than we think. This means, treating depression isn’t a one size fits all solution. It is agreed upon that depression is a chemical imbalance and can be treated with SSRIs or SNRIs, etc., which can work for some, but this doesn’t always work for everyone. Understanding what happens in the body and brain when it comes to nervous system outputs and how we are wired, as well as our connection to nature and sunlight, we can start to understand the complexities of depression, and find ways to treat it at an individual level. In today’s episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer are joined by Matt Bush to talk about depression, chronic fatigue and functional freeze, and how they are all interlinked with one another. They discuss myths about depression and how pharmaceuticals aren’t the only, or best, way to treat depression. Also, how we may become wired toward depression at a young age by witnessing and mimicking caregivers in their own depressive states and how social connection, nature, and neurodrills that produce domaine, can help rewire the brain. Depression can look and feel insidious, but its main function is to be protective. If we reframe the way we look at depression, we can be effective in healing it. Join us to learn about this and more! Topics discussed in this episode: Different levels of freeze responses The overlap of functional freeze and burnout Chronic fatigue as a protective output What is depression? Some myths about depression Are pharmaceuticals necessary to treat depression? How depression can be wired into us by mimicking our primary caregivers Social connection as a way to rewire depression Dopamine’s role in the correlation between addiction and depression How neurodrills can rewire and change brain chemistry Nature as a healing tool The socioeconomic and cultural impact on the nervous system Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the spring cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Join the Next Level Neuro Mentorship Program: https://www.nextlevelneuro.com/a/2147666262/2U4AvzLR REWIRE RETREAT https://www.thenatureofmindbody.com/book-online Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/ Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

magine a flame that isn’t receiving adequate fuel, slowly dying down. This is a great visualization of what happens in the body when we are experiencing burnout. When we push past our capacity and boundaries, while doing things that may not be authentic or aligned with us, we are essentially burning through our reserves faster than we can replenish them. This is so common for people to experience in our society, with so many pressures to do more constantly. The demand it has on our physical, mental, and emotional health is greater than we think. This is not to villainize growth, growth is good, but taking the time for rest and recovery is essential for that growth to be sustainable. In this episode, our hosts Elisabeth and Jennifer discuss what burnout means, and dive deep into the science behind what happens in the body when we push ourselves further than our capacities can handle, and end up feeling tired, dissociated, and uninspired. They touch on the warning signs of burnout, as well as possible causes, such as social media, self abandonment, attachment styles, and socioeconomic pressures. The Western world rewards those who push themselves whether that is through physical training, needing to be at every event to maintain social connections, or even in our own somatic healing. Doing more, in less time, has become so intertwined in our culture, it’s no wonder so many of us experience high levels of stress and burnout, when it doesn’t have to be that way.

In this episode of Trauma Rewired, hosts Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof are joined by Matt Bush as they unpack anxiety. The conversation starts with an exploration of how neurodivergent conditions such as ADHD and autism impact executive functioning, sensory processing, and create hypersensitivities that lead to emotional overwhelm. They highlight the importance of self-assessment and retraining of sensory systems to better manage these challenges. Elisabeth Kristof further connects developmental and complex trauma to nervous system responses, noting how trauma shapes our interpretation of signals and can keep individuals in a constant state of fight, flight, or freeze. Jennifer Wallace emphasizes the crucial aspect of self-awareness and deep self-knowledge in managing anxiety, advocating for practices that foster body awareness, emotional expression, and self-regulation. Anxiety is not just a mental disorder but a physiological response emanating from sensory mismatches and respiratory inefficiencies. Chronic hyperventilation, for example, sends constant threat signals to the brain, keeping the nervous system on high alert. Through regular neuro training and specific breathing exercises, individuals can better regulate their nervous systems and reduce anxiety. Let’s reframe anxious thoughts and use cognitive tools to consider positive outcomes, thereby preventing the negative spiral of anxiety and trauma. Discuss the tangible benefits of applying neurosomatic principles to everyday life. Explore sensory mismatches, emphasizing the need to address deficits in visual, vestibular, somatosensory, and interoceptive systems to alleviate anxiety. We advocate for ongoing self-assessment and retraining as ways to establish a new baseline of wellness.

As humans we rely on visual memory the most, but what if we told you that memories, especially memories that were formed before we had language, live primarily in our bodies. It’s safe to say, the body keeps score, more than we know. It can be extremely dis-regulating to try to retrieve memories that live in the body without proper training because the visual aspect of the memory may not correlate to the sensations that show up in the body. This is why having awareness and training is so crucial to the healing process, which is what we will be discussing in today’s episode. In this episode, our hosts Elisabeth and Jennifer sit down to discuss how somatic memories are stored in the body and the science behind the whole process. Our hormones, cells, and epigenetics play a crucial role, and understanding how they store and express trauma through our thoughts, behaviors, and decisions, we can start to really heal on a deep level. Possibly even heal parts of ourselves we didn’t know needed healing. Just as our brain and body can be wired, they can also be rewired. Through our awareness and understanding, and by learning effective tools to dig deep and re-pattern those hidden parts of ourselves. Tune in to hear this and more! Topics discussed in this episode: How we trust visual memory over somatic memory The science behind preverbal memory The role hormones play in somatic memory Freedom in repatterning the nervous system Cellular health and cellular memory Memories are stored in our cells How water holds memories Generational trauma and our collective memory Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/ Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the spring cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

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 UNLOCK ANXIETY with Matt Bush! https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/rewireanxiety/ Become NSI certified and bring Neuro-Somatic Intelligence into your practice.

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 Join us for the next Neuro-Somatic Intelligence worshop!

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 Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/ Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the spring cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com/?utm_medium=aff-traumarewired&utm_content&utm_source Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

“You can’t be present and dissociated at the same time.” These wise words from co-host Jennifer Wallace encompasses why this topic is so important to explore. Presence is the truth of our emotions and our reality, because we cannot heal what we do not feel. Being present with our emotions, and feeling them in our body, allows us to truly understand and heal our nervous system in ways that dissociating from the body cannot. This is a powerful conversation highlighting what goes on in the brain and nervous system when we dissociate, and how this protective mechanism can become maladaptive when its original function no longer serves us. There is a way to overcome dissociation and authentically feel emotions in the body to truly heal. In this episode, Elisabeth Kristoff and Jennifer Wallace deep dive into dissociation and its characteristics. The discussion begins with defining what dissociation is and how it is learned at an early age as a protective mechanism, followed by unraveling how dissociation shows up in the brain, specifically which brain structures are involved in disassociation, as well as the connection between the vagus nerve and the interoceptive system as it pertains to dissociation. It’s not enough to just understand these concepts intellectually, the real healing happens when we can experience them, which means feeling them in our bodies. That’s where Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching comes in, where we teach you the tools you need to heal the whole self, and move out of dissociation and into the body in a safe way. Tune in for this and more! Topics discussed in this episode: Definition of dissociation How dissociation is on a spectrum The protective aspects of dissociation How dissociation gets wired in the brain from an early age The function of the thalamus and how it’s related to dissociation The deep connection between the vagus nerve and the interoceptive system How the brain makes predictions based on our past experiences The possibility to train in new protective skills that are not maladaptive Knowing about the nervous system is not the same as experiencing it Spiritual bypassing and dissociation The importance of presence in understanding the truth of emotions Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/ Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the spring cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

The essence of who we are radiates when we live in our purpose. When we can connect with our true self and share it with others. There are many blockers stopping us from being able to express our feelings, or even know what we’re experiencing, and one of them is self abandonment. Don’t let the “self” fool you — sometimes, we unintentionally abandon ourselves because of the survival responses born as a result of trauma. Until healing begins, we can get stuck living through learned patterns of ignoring our own needs in favor of others around us, suppressing feelings to protect ourselves from the neglect of others, and rejecting our intuition. Trauma Rewired host, Jennifer, and Elisabeth Kristof of Brain-Based Wellness are finishing the CPTSD series by discussing this final component of CPTSD: self abandonment. They talk about the ways we abandon ourselves through the lens of their own experiences, and how it manifests in a cycle of self-abuse and shame. If you find yourself disregarding your own health and happiness, tune in to understand this component of CPTSD and how healing is possible! Topics discussed in this episode: Jennifer shares a recent story of self abandonment Elisabeth defints self abandonment Dissociation as a survival response The effects of parentification Healing self abandonment How all the components of CPTSD work together Becoming an expert of your nervous system Toxic stress and disease Learning to say “no” and self-regulate The power of self-expression Join the live-recording Q&A episode AND the new Facebook group!

The term social anxiety gets tossed around a lot these days, however individuals with CPTS who experience social anxiety feel its effects on a visceral level. It can be highly debilitating and can affect the way we relate and connect to others, when the need for connection is at the very core of what makes us human. Knowing if you actually have social anxiety can be tricky, especially if there are socially acceptable coping mechanisms like overconsumption of substances involved. The proof is in the nervous system outputs, such as migraines, pain, exhaustion, or binge eating, after every social event. As well as, if these outputs cause you to refrain from being in social settings all together. At these times, it's important to reflect on whether you're genuinely comfortable in social situations or if social anxiety may be at play. In today’s episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer explore the world of social anxiety, specifically what signs in your nervous system to look out for if you suspect you have social anxiety, the difference between social anxiety and being socially awkward, the role substance use plays, how your attachment style can indicate your level of social anxiety, and how to repattern the nervous system using NSI tools to overcome social anxiety, and much more. As humans, we need to connect to others, and we need relationships to thrive. Social anxiety can impede these very human needs, however there is a way around it. It is possible to change how your nervous system takes in information, and change the way it reacts to that information, using simple tools to rewire and regulate. Tune in to hear how and more! Topics discussed in this episode: What is social anxiety? The nervous system outputs associated with social anxiety Substance use and social anxiety How the inner critic and toxic shame shows up in social anxiety What is hypervigilance? Physiological reasons why stress in social situations can cause protective outputs How ADHD and social anxiety overlap How attachment styles are related to social anxiety Repatterning the nervous system to experience new outputs using NSI Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/ Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the spring cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.
