Description

Happy Satiated Saturday! 

As many of you know, this Somatic Eating® journey all started for me when I began to have severe digestive issues in my teenage years and early 20's. 

During that time, I was doing everything I could. I explored Ayurveda, cleansing, detoxing, the GAPS diet, the low FODMAP diet, I cut out gluten and dairy, and while some of these things helped or at least taught me something about my body, the digestive issues continued. It wasn't until I started somatic therapy that things began to change. As I came to terms with what I grew up around was traumatic, I had more compassion for my body and my digestive issues that were my body's way of telling me all along it didn't feel safe. What I have seen is that somatics, trauma work, and nervous system healing are missing pieces on a digestive and food healing adventure

In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Miriam Jacobson, triple board-certified functional medicine dietitian, breathwork facilitator, and the founder of Every Body Bliss about: 

  • The connection between digestive issues and trauma
  • The impact of trauma on the vagus nerve
  • How to support your vagus nerve
  • How our pace and environment can affect the function of our digestive tract
  • The importance of tears when healing
