What are trauma tingles, you ask? Oh, you know them. They're those wild, exciting, tantalizing, and misdirecting feelings that magnetize you into the same shitty relational dynamics you've been dealing with your whole life.Oof, It's wild out there in the complex realm of relationships. Sometimes we find ourselves more interested in the chase than the embrace or confusing intensity for intimacy- all the while declaring that we want and need love. If red flags feel like home and you find yourself or people you know in the merry-go-round of relationship pains, welcome to the world of trauma tingles... Let's talk about it.In this episode, Dr. Scott Lyons chats with Kai Cheng Thom and Nkem Ndefo about red flags in dating and why trauma tingles feel irresistible. If an ordinary life feels risky and red flags cause a buzz of excitement, don't worry—this is a normal part of being human and an adaptive response to trauma. Through witnessing patterns unfolding and learning how to form safer boundaries for ourselves and others, we can heal to the point that those trauma tingles become boring and unsexy- red flag couture no more!Topics we break down:How trauma tingles relate to your attachment style.Why dating apps can be dehumanizing.Communicating your needs.Reconfiguring relationships.Maintaining boundaries.Choosing yourself.Kai Cheng's work focuses on the intersection of social justice, pleasure activism, and transformative approaches to healing conflict.Connect with Kai ChengWebsite | Facebook | Instagram | TwitterArise EmbodimentNkem is the founder of Lumos Transforms and the creator of the Resilience Toolkit.Connect with NkemWebsite | Facebook | Instagram | TwitterThe Resilience ToolkitConnect with Dr. ScottWebsite | Instagram | TikTokAddicted to DramaSave 10% at OMALA with offer code DRSCOTT10Save 10% on The Embody Lab with offer code GENTLYUSED10Want to see the Rorschach Drawings?

We start each guest encounter with a few minutes of meeting each other without words, through the language of our bodies, before we press record and bring it to a conversation. This is not a hard hitting agenda or getting to the bottom of things. It's about finding each other in the not-knowing. We're here for the spaciousness, the awkwardness, the silliness, the silence — from the dark insides of our bodies to the bright insights of our minds, we're excited to welcome people who's impulses we'd like to get to know.

What does it mean to sing from the etheric heart? Who do we become as we listen to the stories, sensations, and sounds that live in our hearts? How do we reclaim our desires through liberating our voices?Join Katie Dove, Marisa Michelson, and me for a profound conversation that explores the relationship between the heart and the voice. Marisa and Katie are creating their first collaboration, HeartSong, which weaves and alchemizes their profound connections to spirit and music, as well as the decades of experience in their respective private practices of guiding others back into their authentic selves.We discussed our personal experiences coming home to our authentic voices, the fear responses that singing can bring up, and the difference between desires and needs.Marisa and Katie brought such aliveness, curiosity, reverence, and playfulness to our conversation. It was the first time the three of us gathered for a conversation and we immediately settled into a womb-like energetic space where time flowed freely like a river. It was deep and jovial.Learn more about HeartSong here.

She encourages the attunement of one's internal potency and magnetism to attract people, activities, and communities that support and align with their true nature.

Today With Emmy Marie: Today on The Inner Edit, I am with Emmy Marie, founder of @bloomingwithemmy. Emmy is a content creator and a trauma coach who has worked through her own c-PTSD and trauma from abuse and now helps others on their own path to healing.  Emmy's rise to success started out with an anonymous platform, but over time she began showing up with her face and name. Her journey can teach us a lot about how to dip our toes into something new, how to overcome our own challenges and discomfort, and how to avoid burnout and remain authentic in what we're creating. Pick It Apart [0:30] Emmy shares her journey of forming her platform and her decision to move away from anonymity. [10:32] Christie asks Emmy how she balances creating what she wants with what is valuable to her audience. [14:21] Emmy and Christie discuss avoiding and recovering from burnout. [19:39] Christie asks Emmy how she decides which content is worth focusing on. [22:04] Emmy and Christie discuss boundaries around content creation. Christie Rocha's and Emmy Marie's Ah-Ha Moments “It's unrealistic to expect yourself to have an original thought every day.” -Emmy “I'd rather be happy and balanced than make six figures.” -Emmy “It's really that self-awareness of saying ‘I'd rather be happy and balanced than make six figures.' It's a simple sentence, but it's not an easy one.” -Christie More About Emmy Marie I began this work in 2013 after surviving an abusive relationship that left me with complex PTSD. Since then, I've dedicated my life to finding a way to stop viewing myself with disdain and shame, and start believing in my ability to live a wildly joyful, connected, and empowered life. Along the way, I've studied a plethora of healing techniques that bridge the gap between neuroscience and soulful intuitive knowing. I'm a huge fan of everything from the Polyvagal Theory, to the Enneagram, to somatic work, to the mindfulness practice of Radical Acceptance. In October 2020, I became certified as a trauma-informed coach through the ICF-accredited program offered by Moving the Human Spirit. In January 2022, I became certified as a NARM practitioner. NARM is a modality for working with complex trauma. In August 2023, I earned a certificate in Somatic Attachment Therapy (which I apply to coaching) from The Embody Lab. I view everything I learn about through the lens of trauma recovery in order to help survivors feel safe as they try out new practices or reach for their goals, adapting what I learn to work for overwhelmed brains that are used to looking for danger everywhere. My dedication to studying trauma recovery has led me from being full of shame to full of self-love. Now that I can see the ways my body adapted to the overwhelming experiences I survived in the light of acceptance, I can work with my symptoms instead of running away from them. Now that I can see how devastating the effects of trauma were on my brain and body, I can give myself the rest I need to recover without judging myself for my needs. Now that I can see how abuse conditioned me to constantly doubt myself, I can make the radical choice to go after what lights me up and know it's safe to do so.

He has been featured in huge publications such as The New York Times, Vanity Fair, ForbesWomen, The Telegraph, and many more. ***NOTE: Deep talk about drama addiction starts at 18 minutes, but I highly recommend the beginning where we talk about exactly *how* he went from being a pro Drag Queen to a clinical psychologist

We were thrilled to have Dr. Scott Lyons on the podcast! Dr. Lyons has an innovative approach to his practice, combining holistic psychology with mind-body medicine and embodied education. He founded The Embody Lab, Omala, is host of The Gently Used Human podcast, Creator of Somatic Stress Release, and author of “Addicted to Drama.”  We sat down with Scott to talk about: The difference between movement and embodiment within ourselves, and why that distinction and ability to metabolize and move emotions is so important to our growth. How trauma is everywhere and can't necessarily be healed and processed through talking alone or at all, and that the resources to clear trauma and support others should be accessible to all. That we are sometimes the common denominator in the chaos in our own lives, and that we may “stir the drama to avoid the trauma” as a coping mechanism. And so much more!

Dr. Scott Lyons is the author of the book “Addicted to Drama: Healing Dependency on Crisis and Chaos in Yourself and Others”. He joins me for a discussion about all addictions - from alcohol to sex to food, and of course drama - and how they are formed. We also talk about how to heal from addiction by addressing the root. Scott also runs a Somatic Therapy school called The Embody Lab which offers fantastic training for coaches and healers. In this episode we dive into: The origins of addiction and how to define it (Disease or no disease?)  Medical model vs. Humanistic model view of addiction. The opposite of addiction is connection to self and others. Finding comfort in filling voids and dissociation. The deadliness of loneliness.  Why do we experience traumas differently? The defence mechanism of denial. The link between addiction and a fear of intimacy. What addicted to drama looks like?  Attachment to unnecessary turmoil and nervous system activation. Making sense vs. making sensation. How are you unconsciously creating childhood patterns in your adult life? Exaggerated responses vs. an inner sense of normalcy. Assessing currencies of love from childhood. The separation of process addictions and the necessities of being human. Disrupting your inner peace with the “revving reflex”. What does it look like to recover from addiction and heal? Building tolerance for ease and connection. Creating a narrative around withdrawal symptoms. Trauma lives in your nervous system and is a felt experience.  MDMA therapy and trauma. Is it possible to escape drama in the capitalist world we live in? How do you support someone who is addicted to drama? Mirror neuron responses. Taking responsibility for the role you play in relationships.

In this episode we're talking to coach Meghann Birks about being gifted and having ADHD,  late-in-life diagnosis, lived experience of ADHD, how we can manage from day to day, the challenges, the strengths, parenting and so much more. Memorable quote… “ “I think that the flip side of this is that there are things I found challenging as an adult and as a mother, that when I started to really understand my brain, the perspective changed. And then there was another layer of perspective shift for me that came when I started to do the work on reparenting myself. My 10-year-old son is constantly doing cartwheels and running around and I used to get quite resentful, especially in public spaces. I'm like, don't run into people. Be quiet. You know? All those social norms that we all feel the pressure of…  And when I realised, my therapist asked me, ‘what was something you needed as a child that you didn't have?' And my answer immediately was, I needed someone who could keep up with me.  And immediately I went, I get to be that for him. And I can't always physically keep up with him because he is 10 and I am in my mid forties. However, I can give you the space for that exuberance to exist. And there is a huge part of the work that I do, especially with women, which coincides with midlife… Where a lot of the work that women do in midlife is far from a crisis. It is a reclamation of who we were before the world stamped it out of us.” - Meghann Birks Bio…  Meghann Birks, is an Embodiment Coach and Trauma Informed Professional Trainer based on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula where she lives with her partner and two highly spirited boys. “I'm a coach, writer, dancer, Steel Mace Flow Coach and wannabe surf goddess who loves creating, coffee, lifting heavy, movement and sleep. I also have a wonderfully neurodivergent brain that shows itself via ADHD and I'm passionate about helping women with this diagnosis create an incredible life where they can flourish. I am fascinated by the stories we tell ourselves, how they impact us and how we can, with proper support, change the narrative to move us toward a pure and joyful expression of who we are and why we're here.” She holds the designation of Certified Professional Coach from the International Coach Academy, one of the world's leading training organisations. This intensive course covered an array of learning modules and she was required to coach both internal and external clients under supervision from a Master Coach before she received her certificate. She also holds: Cert III in Fitness, Cert IV in Fitness (Personal Training), Completion of the Wim Hof Method Fundamentals Course, Numerous qualifications in the area of program design and facilitation, Steel Mace Flow Coach Level 1, Certificate in Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy from The Embody Lab, and ‘An Advanced Degree from the School of Hard Knocks, as some of my super fun eff-ups in life are the reason I am now so good at what I do.' - - - - More… Enjoyed the podcast?

Is it ever possible to truly be authentic in an era where our lives are broadcast to the world? At what point does our natural human desire to connect become a curated performance? And who must we become to keep the wheels of engagement spinning in a world of filtered realities?On this week's episode, Dr. Scott tackles the complex topic of authenticity with herbalist, writer, entrepreneur and podcast host, Olivia Amitrano (better known to her followers as Organic Olivia) to distinguish between the real deal and the polished-for-show version that Olivia calls 'authenticity porn.' Together, they'll tackle the tough questions like, is it even feasible to share our 'real selves' in a space where our sense of self is influenced by others' views? And how does our deep-rooted need to be seen and acknowledged turn into us becoming our social media persona? Scott and Olivia will also unpack how trauma impacts who you are in the world, how you present yourself to the world and how the world, in turn, gives you feedback about who you should be. Join us for this week's candid episode as we navigate the tricky path of authenticity in a world where filters are the norm, not the exception.Topics we break down:Deciphering our gut-brain connectionsImpact of stress and trauma on gut healthThe role of community in healingUnderstanding our social avatars or “cardboard cutouts”Social camouflage and self-curationAdam Grant versus Brené Brown: what even is authenticity?!Connect with OliviaOlivia Amitrano, or as most of us know her, Organic Olivia, has a massive fan base of over half a million followers for good reason. She is an herbalist, writer, entrepreneur, and podcast host with a mission to bridge the gap between Western medicine's gifts and traditional herbalism's wisdom. Her journey began when she experienced various debilitating health issues that no Western medical doctor could alleviate. As a young child, she knew that something was not quite right, but she couldn't put her finger on it - she sensed that her symptoms were interconnected at their root. For example, her anxiety and skin would flare up at the same time as her gastrointestinal pain. She decided to explore Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and consulted an herbalist. Her life transformed from that day forward.Olivia's life's goal is to provide education, insights, and herbal blends that support individuals in achieving optimal health. She develops tinctures, elixirs, capsules, and teas that allow people worldwide to access medicinal herbs that enhance everything from sleep and digestion to energy and mood. Organic Olivia's mission is to genuinely change people's lives through plant remedies.Organic Olivia | Instagram | LinkedIn | FacebookDiscount Codes:Save 10% at Omala with offer code DRSCOTT10Save 10% on The Embody Lab with offer code GENTLYUSED10

Whether we're watching it play out on social media or experiencing it in our relationships and workplaces, all of us know someone who is addicted to drama.  But how do you recognize a drama addiction in yourself or others?  And once you recognize it, how do you break the cycle and live more peacefully? Today on Typology, clinical psychologist Scott Lyons, Ph.D., reveals how he learned to navigate generations of trauma and identifies what a drama addiction is.   “Like all addictions, it is looking at how do we fill the void? How do we prevent further pain? How do we fill the void? And when you have a void, you don't exist. There isn't a sense of existence on this plane.  So you fill it with things that give you a sense of aliveness or purpose,” explains Dr. Lyons.  Tune in to hear his advice on how to break free from the damaging effects of living lives consumed by chaos.  Follow @typologypodcast on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.  -- ABOUT SCOTT LYONS, Ph.D. Dr. Scott Lyons is a holistic psychologist and educator.

“Ah, meditation and yoga, what a beautiful place to hide.”-Scott's ex-therapistWhile there's no denying that mindfulness can be a powerful tool, is it the answer to all of our problems, or is it really just a game of playing hide-and-seek from ourselves? In this episode Dr. Scott and Dr. Sará hilariously break down the complexity of mindfulness- differentiating toxic positivity and splashy bypassing from a path of profound connection to oneself and the full spectrum of human experiences. Dr. Scott and Dr. Sará lead by example, demonstrating how play can help you break free from the bondage of trauma as they approach this episode and life with full-on childhood curiosity and a willingness to let life unfold, providing you with the magic sauce of empowerment and deep healing. If you're looking for the kind of mindfulness that cultivates the resilience needed to be in the dance of life and feel a deep sense of belonging to the world while at the same time making you laugh so hard you pee (and question whether mindfulness and bladder control are related) - this episode of The Gently Used Human is for you.Topics we break down:Trauma bonding.The importance of play.Healing intergenerational trauma.Interdependence.

What are trauma tingles, you ask? Oh, you know them. They're those wild, exciting, tantalizing, and misdirecting feelings that magnetize you into the same shitty relational dynamics you've been dealing with your whole life.Oof, It's wild out there in the complex realm of relationships. Sometimes we find ourselves more interested in the chase than the embrace or confusing intensity for intimacy- all the while declaring that we want and need love. If red flags feel like home and you find yourself or people you know in the merry-go-round of relationship pains, welcome to the world of trauma tingles... Let's talk about it.In this episode, Dr. Scott Lyons chats with Kai Cheng Thom and Nkem Ndefo about red flags in dating and why trauma tingles feel irresistible. If an ordinary life feels risky and red flags cause a buzz of excitement, don't worry—this is a normal part of being human and an adaptive response to trauma. Through witnessing patterns unfolding and learning how to form safer boundaries for ourselves and others, we can heal to the point that those trauma tingles become boring and unsexy- red flag couture no more!Topics we break down:How trauma tingles relate to your attachment style.Why dating apps can be dehumanizing.Communicating your needs.Reconfiguring relationships.Maintaining boundaries.Choosing yourself.Kai Cheng's work focuses on the intersection of social justice, pleasure activism, and transformative approaches to healing conflict.Connect with Kai ChengWebsite | Facebook | Instagram | TwitterArise EmbodimentNkem is the founder of Lumos Transforms and the creator of the Resilience Toolkit.Connect with NkemWebsite | Facebook | Instagram | TwitterThe Resilience ToolkitConnect with Dr. ScottWebsite | Instagram | TikTokAddicted to DramaSave 10% at OMALA with offer code DRSCOTT10Save 10% on The Embody Lab with offer code

 KJ embraces her inner fangirl with today's guest, clinical psychologist, yoga teacher, international speaker and author, Dr. Arielle Schwartz.  Dr Schwartz is a leading voice in the healing of PTSD and complex trauma and she is the author of six books incorporating an integrative (somatic psychology, EMDR, mindfulness practices), strength-based approach to trauma treatment. In a compassionate conversation, KJ and Dr. Schwartz speak to the power in proclaiming aloud our intentions for healing in the name of service for others. The ladies also honor the courage it takes to practice true self compassion. Takeaways:  Notice the somatic connection in your own life. What are your body's coping mechanisms?  Take the risk to put your gift in the world.
