Unlocking Trauma Recovery with Polyvagal Theory and Vagus Nerve Exercises

Through a process of self-study and mindful body awareness, you can start to learn strategies that help you restore a sense of safety and heal from trauma.
Ever wondered why trauma seems to cling to your very being, no matter how hard you try to shake it off? In this episode of 'Christian Emotional Recovery', Rachel Leroy dives deep into the fascinating world of Polyvagal Theory and Vagus Nerve Stimulation to offer a fresh perspective on healing trauma. Rachel, a seasoned college professor and trauma survivor, repurposes two insightful YouTube videos to explain how our nervous system works and why trauma gets stuck in our bodies.
She breaks down the three states of the autonomic nervous system—sympathetic, dorsal vagal, and ventral vagal—and how each state affects us. But it doesn’t stop there. Rachel also shares practical exercises to stimulate the Vagus nerve, aiming to help listeners move towards a state of safety and healing. With a blend of faith and science, this episode provides a comprehensive guide to understanding and treating trauma.
Whether you’re dealing with childhood emotional neglect or narcissistic abuse, Rachel’s insights on self-compassion, somatic healing, and neuroception offer valuable tools for your recovery journey. Tune in to discover how these techniques can help you regain control and find peace.
