Ever felt like you're running on empty while juggling your own health and the needs of others? In this engaging episode of The Biology of Trauma™ With Dr. Aimie, you'll get a closer look at the biology behind chronic illness and the Spoon Theory. Dr. Aimie, a medical physician and trauma expert, dives into the science of energy management, particularly for those in caregiving roles.
She shares insights on how practitioners can balance their professional responsibilities with personal health challenges, drawing from a listener's query about feeling drained after certain client sessions. The episode builds on a previous conversation with Helga Byrne, who shared her battle with chronic Lyme disease and how it reshaped her approach to therapy. Here, Dr. Aimie takes us deeper into understanding mitochondria's role in energy production and how trauma affects these tiny powerhouses in our cells.
You'll learn about the cell danger response and how it ties into the Spoon Theory - a framework for managing limited energy. Dr. Aimie offers practical advice for setting boundaries to protect your energy 'spoons' and enhance your well-being. Whether it's time management or stress reduction, these tips are designed to help you maintain your energy levels. So, if you're a practitioner seeking ways to stay healthy while helping others, this episode is a must-listen.
