Unlocking the Freeze Response: Dr. Arielle Schwartz's Guide to Healing Trauma

Trauma work is environment control and it allows us to take control over our environment.
Ever felt stuck in a cycle of fear and inaction? You're not alone. In this episode of 'The Biology of Trauma', Dr. Aimie Apigian teams up with trauma expert Dr. Arielle Schwartz to explore the intricate freeze response and how to overcome it. Dr. Schwartz breaks down the three key phases of healing, focusing on how crucial it is to give your body the time it needs to recover.
She explains that shifting from a performance-driven mindset to one that listens to your body's signals can be transformative. Instead of pushing yourself out of fear, you'll learn to trust your physical intuition, knowing when to rest and when to act. This episode dives deep into the role of the autonomic nervous system, revealing how trauma isn't just stored in the brain but throughout your entire body.
By being curious and attentive to your body's sensations, you can begin to build a healthier relationship with yourself. Dr. Schwartz also touches on the power of words in trauma communities and how controlling your environment can help you regain control over your mental and physical health. If you're looking to understand the freeze response and find practical steps for healing, this episode offers valuable insights and guidance.
