The path to joy is not through analyzing the past but by understanding how you feel today.
Ever feel stuck, like you're frozen in place by past experiences? In this episode of 'The Biology of Trauma™ With Dr. Aimie', Dr. Aimie Apigian continues her insightful conversation with Irene Lyon, a somatic practitioner and nervous system expert. Irene sheds light on how trauma isn't always about major events; sometimes, it's the subtle inconsistencies from childhood that trigger our freeze response.
The duo dives deep into understanding how these hidden traumas affect our nervous system and how we can move past them without needing to dig up every painful memory. Instead, they focus on the present, teaching us to tune into our current feelings and bodily sensations. Irene offers practical somatic tools to help listeners identify and address their freeze responses, paving the way for more joy in daily life.
They also discuss the importance of safety and purpose in the healing journey and how connecting with our environment can play a crucial role in recovery. If you're curious about how to break free from the freeze response and embrace a more joyful life, this episode is a must-listen.
