Heather sits down with somatic educator, nutritionist, and author Luis Mojica for part one of a two-part conversation about of the release of his new book, Food Therapy. Luis opens up about being born intersex, the decades of misunderstanding, bullying, and trauma that followed, and how he found his way to binge eating as a coping mechanism — and eventually, to healing. They dig into the deep connection between hormones, stress, and food, why "food therapy" is about your relationship with what you eat rather than a diet protocol, and practical shifts anyone can make (from balancing meals with protein, beans, and greens to rethinking that morning coffee). It's a raw, wide-ranging talk about the body, shame, resilience, and finding harmony — with part two still to come.

If you've been chasing hormone balance for months and still feel exhausted, bloated, and stuck with weight that won't budge no matter what you eat, there's a piece of this puzzle almost nobody's talking about: what's actually happening in your nervous system every time you sit down to a meal. You've probably heard that stress affects your gut health. But have you ever considered that the exact foods you're eating might be creating the stress in the first place — triggering the same fight-or-flight response as a car accident? That's exactly what I dig into with Luis Mojica, a somatic educator, certified holistic nutritionist, and bestselling author of Food Therapy: Conscious Eating to Navigate Anxiety, Stress, and Trauma. Luis has spent years working at the intersection of trauma, nervous system regulation, and eating — and this conversation completely reframes how I think about brain fog, low energy, and the binge-and-shame cycle so many women in perimenopause know all too well. In this episode: The "seesaw" pattern almost everyone runs on without realizing it — why your morning stimulants might be setting your cortisol and blood sugar up to crash by dinnertime, and why that crash so often ends at the pantry. Why some genuinely healthy foods can trigger the same adrenal stress response as overworking or a car accident — and what that means for anyone dealing with digestive issues, bloating, or IBS that diets alone haven't fixed. The real difference between nutritional hunger and emotional hunger, and the simple somatic check-in Luis uses to tell them apart before a craving turns into a binge. Why what you've been calling "self-sabotage" might actually be your body's overwhelm response — and what that reframe means for anyone stuck in chronic stress and exhaustion. If you've ever felt like your metabolism, your energy, and your relationship with food are all working against you at once, this conversation connects dots that most gut health and hormone balance content leaves out entirely. Stress isn't just something that happens to you around food — it's something certain foods and eating patterns can actually create, and that distinction changes everything about where you start. Press play, and you'll walk away with a completely different lens on your cravings, your fatigue, and why the fix has never been about trying harder.

On today's episode of The CLS Experience we have a transformative conversation with somatic educator and holistic nutrition expert Luis Mojica about the powerful connection between food, anxiety, stress, trauma, and human performance. Inspired by his book Food Therapy: Conscious Eating to Navigate Anxiety, Stress, and Trauma, Luis breaks down the concept of “food induced stress” and explains how what we eat directly impacts nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, clarity, leadership, and business capacity. Luis shares his framework of depressant, stimulant, and balancing foods, revealing how many high performers unknowingly rely on stimulants like caffeine and sugar that spike adrenaline, increase reactivity, and contribute to burnout. Together, Craig and Luis explore cravings as emotional and physiological signals, the role of shame in eating patterns, and how balancing foods like protein, fats, fiber, beans, and greens can stabilize glucose and support nervous system healing. Luis also opens up about his own trauma and binge eating journey that led him into this work, while offering practical tools around mindful eating, body awareness, glucose monitoring, and recovery. This conversation is eye opening, practical, deeply healing, and filled with wisdom for anyone looking to improve their energy, emotional regulation, and overall quality of life.01:41 Food Stress Explained21:11 Nervous System Ripple23:07 Cravings As Compass30:54 Foods That Spike AnxietyCheck out Luis on Instagram HERE:Check out Luis HERE:Grab Luis's Book HERE:See me speak at Cathy's Event HERE:Early Bird Tickets now available for our October live event, CLS: Formation HERE:To join our community click here.➤ Order a copy of Craig's book The Reinvention Formula today! ➤ Join our CLS texting community for free daily inspiration and wisdom to elevate your life, text (917) 634-3796➤ INSTAGRAM➤ FACEBOOK➤ TIKTOK➤ YOUTUBE➤ WEBSITE➤ LINKEDIN➤ X
In this episode of the MindHealth360 Show, I speak with Luis Mojica, somatic therapist, trauma expert, nutritionist, founder of Holistic Life Navigation, and author of Food Therapy: Conscious Eating to Navigate Anxiety, Stress and Trauma. Luis brings together nutrition, somatic experiencing and trauma healing in a way that beautifully captures the MindHealth360 approach: that mental health cannot be separated from physical health, and that the biochemical, psychospiritual and lifestyle-behavioural roots of our symptoms are deeply interconnected. Together, we explore how food affects not only our metabolism and blood sugar, but also the nervous system, emotional regulation and trauma responses. Luis explains how many of us turn to food for regulation when connection, safety or co-regulation are unavailable elsewhere and how cravings, bingeing, restriction and even 'healthy eating' can often be understood as nervous system adaptations rather than matters of shame or willpower. Luis also shares his framework of stimulating, depressing and balancing foods, showing how different foods can push us into fight-or-flight, numb us out, or help us stabilise. We discuss why trauma can make the body more sensitive to caffeine, sugar, fasting and processed foods; why embodiment is essential for understanding how food affects us; and how learning to pause, listen to cravings and sense into the body can help us use food more consciously to support regulation, resilience and healing. In this episode, you'll learn: Why food is about far more than nutrition, influencing emotions, safety and nervous system regulation. How trauma can drive cravings, bingeing, restriction and other eating behaviours. How different foods, through their biochemical effects on the body and brain, can stimulate, numb or help regulate the nervous system. What cravings may reveal about unmet emotional, relational or nutritional needs. How conscious eating and embodiment practices can support healing and resilience. Why Luis sees food as both biochemical and relational – something that can affect our body, emotions and sense of safety. Join Luis Mojica at IMMH 2026 As understanding of the brain-body connection continues to evolve, practitioners are increasingly recognising the role that nutrition, trauma and nervous system regulation play in mental health. At the Integrative Medicine for Mental Health (IMMH) conference, October 8–11, 2026, Luis Mojica will join more than 50 world-renowned clinicians, researchers and thought leaders exploring the emerging science and clinical applications shaping the future of integrative mental health.. In his session, Food Therapy: The Missing Piece for Nervous System Regulation, Luis will share practical frameworks for understanding the relationship between food, trauma and nervous system function, helping practitioners recognise patterns of dysregulation, and integrate nutrition more effectively into mental health treatment and recovery. Luis will also join an expert panel on Eating Disorders alongside Dr. James Greenblatt, Dr. Jeanne Catanzaro, and Dr. Christina Bjorndal, examining integrative root-cause approaches to understanding and treating disordered eating.

LEARN HOW TO JOURNALSPEAK In this beautiful and deeply honest conversation, I'm joined by Luis Mojica, somatic therapist, trauma nutritionist, founder of Holistic Life Navigation, and author of Food Therapy. Luis and I talk about the place where our work so naturally overlaps: the truth that the body is always holding, expressing, protecting, and trying to create safety when life has felt like too much. Luis shares his own story of childhood trauma, chronic illness, body shame, disordered eating, and the long road toward feeling at home in his body. What unfolds is not a typical conversation about nutrition, diets, or “healthy eating,” but a much more compassionate and useful look at food as relationship, food as regulation, and food as a doorway into the parts of us that have been trying to survive. We talk about why so many people with chronic pain and chronic symptoms become terrified of food, how elimination diets can sometimes deepen fear instead of creating freedom, and why shame is often harder to metabolize than anything we eat. Luis explains his framework of stimulants, depressants, and balancers, not as good or bad foods, but as different kinds of nervous system information. We also explore overeating, cravings, glucose, adrenaline, bracing, food-induced stress, and the way our eating patterns can reveal what we are repressing, avoiding, or longing to feel. More than anything, this episode is an invitation to replace fear with curiosity, judgment with compassion, and rigid rules with a more embodied relationship to your own system. Join us! XOOX n.

You're doing everything “right” with food — and still feel anxious, exhausted, and disconnected from your body. Sound familiar? In this episode, Wendy sits down with somatic educator and USA Today bestselling author Luis Mojica to explore the missing link between what we eat and how we feel. Luis shares his own journey through trauma and disordered eating, and the breakthrough that became his book Food Therapy: the idea that food is constantly speaking to your nervous system. He explains “food-induced stress,” why certain foods quietly trigger fight-or-flight, how to sort foods into stimulants, depressants, and balancers — and why your cravings are actually messages about your unmet needs. This is not a diet or a list of rules. It's a compassionate, freeing new way to relate to food, your body, and yourself in midlife.What You'll Learn:• Why even “healthy” foods can push your nervous system into fight-or-flight• The surprising glucose–adrenaline connection behind food-induced stress• How to sort foods into stimulants, depressants, and balancers — and bookend them• How to read your cravings as a compass for unmet emotional needs• A simple embodiment practice to find safety in your own body

Luis takes us through:Why food can trigger a fight-or-flight response just like a threatening event The difference between stimulants, depressants, and balancing foods Why "healthy eating" can actually worsen anxiety if your nervous system isn't ready How food allergies can sometimes be trauma responses in disguise A simple somatic practice to track tension and ask your body what it needs And so much more!

Luis shares his personal journey from childhood dissociation and unprocessed trauma to discovering how deeply food shapes the nervous system. They unpack his framework of stimulants, depressants, and balancers, and explore how our most persistent eating habits are often the body's unconscious attempts to manage stress and avoid pain.

Se reflexiona sobre cómo, al hablar de inteligencia artificial, suele ponerse el foco únicamente en algoritmos, plataformas o herramientas generativas, dejando de lado un elemento fundamental: la infraestructura digital. Explica que tecnologías como redes de telecomunicaciones, fibra óptica, 5G, sensores, Internet de las Cosas y centros de datos son la base para generar y procesar los datos que alimentan los algoritmos. Asimismo, destaca el papel estratégico de los gobiernos locales, pues son quienes autorizan el despliegue de infraestructura digital a través de la normatividad de desarrollo urbano.

Step into a deeply honest, embodied, and paradigm-shifting conversation with Luis Mojica, somatic practitioner, trauma-informed nutritionist, and founder of Holistic Life Navigation, on this episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light. Luis brings a rare integration of nervous system work, food health, and trauma healing, inviting us to understand the body not as a problem to fix, but as a language to listen to. Luis shares his personal journey of growing up in an intersex body, navigating confusion, bullying, shame, and deep isolation. Without an empathic witness, he internalized his pain, leading to anxiety, panic, insomnia, and PTSD symptoms that he coped with through food. We explore how his path into healing began with picking up a guitar, learning to be 'held' through the guitar against his torso, allowing sounds, then singing to begin healing his trauma. Then through nutrition, witnessing firsthand how food could radically shift mental health, over time, his work evolved beyond "what to eat" into a much deeper question: Why does the body reach for certain foods in the first place? How are those patterns rooted in nervous system regulation, not lack of discipline? Luis introduces a powerful reframe of trauma and stress through the lens of resonance with the body. Stress can resolve, but trauma keeps the system braced, locked in chronic fight-or-flight. He explains how certain foods can either stimulate, depress, or balance the nervous system, sometimes triggering the same physiological responses as emotional shock or danger. We also talk about: -Trauma as the absence of an empathic witness -The connection between food habits and nervous system states -Chronic adrenaline and living in a braced body -Why coping mechanisms are intelligent, not wrong -Food as a regulator of anxiety, panic, and overwhelm -Moving beyond "healthy vs unhealthy" into body awareness -Somatic experiencing and self-inquiry as healing tools -Shame, secrecy, and the body's protective adaptations -Relearning safety and compassion from the inside out -Creating a relationship with the body rooted in curiosity and kindness In real time, Luis' capacity as a trauma facilitator was revealed as I had an insight into my desire for a glass of wine at the end of the day. He was elegant in holding space for my tears, guiding my somatic awareness, being with my emotions that transmuted into insights, awareness and integration right before our eyes… How amazing to meet a facilitator who can provide for me what I provide for my clients- no one can see our own blindspots. How nourishing to experience a brother whose soul lives for supporting others in integrating trauma in real time. This episode is an invitation to soften your judgment and deepen your listening. It reminds us that the body is not working against us, it is working for us, always seeking safety, regulation, and connection. Healing begins when we stop forcing change and start understanding the intelligence beneath our patterns.

How does the food we eat impact our ability to heal from trauma? In this episode of Health, Harmony and Heather, host Heather sits down with somatic educator and holistic nutritionist Luis Mojica to explore the deep connection between our biology, our nervous system, and our relationship with food. Luis shares his powerful personal journey of growing up with an intersex condition in the 90s, the bullying and trauma that followed, and how he eventually discovered that his "food chatter" and binge eating were actually attempts to regulate a dysregulated nervous system. The Intersex Experience: Luis opens up about his hormonal biology and the challenges of being misunderstood by the medical community as a child. Food as a Tool for Embodiment: Why food should be seen as more than just a health outcome, but as a way to process stress and trauma. The Glucose-Trauma Connection: How certain "health foods" like fruit juice or sushi can actually trigger a fight-or-flight response in a stressed body. Stimulants vs. Balancers: Learning to categorize food by how it affects your adrenals—featuring Luis's top three "balancers". Hormonal Health for Men and Women: The impact of stress on estrogen and testosterone, and why "visceral fat" plays a role in hormonal shifts. Luis's new book, Food Therapy, is available now!

Since my time in graduate school for somatic psychotherapy, I have shared with anyone who would listen about the connection between somatics and nutrition. It has felt absurd to me that food was never talked about in my somatic studies. In my PhD interview, I passionately shared that I believe there is a need to bring the field of nutrition into somatics. This has been a 20-year journey where I'm seeing that others have also been trying to combine these fields. One of those people I'm thrilled to bring back onto the podcast.In this week's episode, I chat with Luis Mojica, Somatic Educator, certified in Holistic Nutrition, and author of Food Therapy, about: How Luis also came to combine the fields of somatics, nutrition, and traumaFood as a witness to your darkest momentsWhat different foods will do in your nervous systemThe importance of titrating balancing foods into your mealsOwning the choice to lean on food Somatic practices to move through cravings Discovering what your most craved foods are trying to do for you You can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-to-use-food-cravings-as-feedback-of-your-nervous-system-statesWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Luis: Website: www.holisticlifenavigation.com Link to book page: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/the-book Podcast: www.holisticlifenavigation.com/podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/holistic.life.navigationSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportAll affiliate links: https://www.stephaniemara.com/resourcesReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPlSpecial thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensou...
In this episode, I interview somatic therapist, nutritionist, and author Luis Mojica about the link between trauma recovery and nutrition, a focus of his book Food Therapy (releasing April 28). Mojica explains “food-induced stress,” arguing that nervous system regulation is affected by what we eat daily, not just breathwork or therapy, and categorizes foods as stimulants (caffeine, sugar, skipping meals), depressants (fried/processed flour and fat like fries, pizza, pasta), and balancers (beans, greens, proteins). He describes “seesaw regulation,” shame-free “unconscious alchemy” behind cravings, and how balancing meals can shift mood, sleep, glucose, and stress responses. They discuss examples including insomnia tied to nocturnal hypoglycemia, improved blood sugar, boundaries revealed when removing coping foods, and how culture and processed diets shape regulation.

La medicina española ha sido un puente fundamental entre la tradición clásica y la ciencia moderna. Lejos de la imagen de oscurantismo inquisitorial que se ha querido transmitir por la leyenda negra, España ha sido clave en la recuperación del saber clásico y en la revolución científica. Personajes como Servet, Balmis, Cajal, Pagés, Trueta, Barraquer, Grande Covián, Marañón, Salas, Morreale, Mojica o Barbacid, por citar algunos, constituyen un ejemplo de un país que enseñó al mundo a mirar hacia el interior del ser humano y también hacia fuera, a la salud de la humanidad. Aunque como en tantas cosas, esta historia, estos personajes, no sean conocidos por el gran público. Hemos hablado con el doctor Miguel Ángel Cuesta, coordinador del libro “Contribuciones de la medicina española al mundo” (Edaf) y con Lluís Montoliu (CNB/CSIC) y Fernando de Castro (Centro de Neurociencia Cajal/CSIC), autores de algunos de los capítulos. En este programa hemos hablado en numerosas ocasiones del origen de la vida… Seguramente nunca llegaremos a conocer como fue el proceso que dio lugar a los primeros seres vivos, pero Carlos Briones nos ha contado un interesante estudio sobre pequeñas secuencias de ARN capaces de copiarse a sí mismas. Ana Maymó nos ha contado un estudio el CSIC que revela cómo el calentamiento global amplificó la DANA de Valencia… Es el primero en evaluar el papel del cambio climático en la dinámica interna de este fenómeno meteorológico. Con testimonios de Carlos Calvo, investigador del Centro de Investigaciones sobre Desertificación (CSIC/UV/ Generalitat Valenciana), coordinador del estudio. Con Javier Cacho, hemos rendido homenaje a Josefina Castellví, impulsora y directora de la primera base antártica española. Escuchar audio

In this episode, host Unique and guest Luis Mojica discuss the concept of "food ideologies" and how they can become a person's identity, often to the detriment of their health.Podcast Summary: Food Ideology vs. Personal HealthIn this episode, Unique Hammond and her guest, Luis Mojica, discuss the concept of food as identity and how it can become a limiting factor in personal health journeys. Unique emphasizes that while the Bean Protocol was a tool that helped her heal from autoimmune conditions like Crohn's and endometriosis, she doesn't want it to be her sole identity.Both hosts share personal stories of how they subscribed to strict food ideologies—first vegetarianism, then veganism and macrobiotics—as a means of finding health. Luis recounts his journey from eating a highly processed diet to becoming a "militant vegan" after a traumatic experience at a factory farm. He initially thrived on a whole-foods vegan diet but later began to experience fatigue, brain fog, and weight gain. He realized his body was craving animal proteins and fats.They both highlight a key issue: when a food ideology becomes a person's identity, it can lead to social and internal conflict if they need to change their diet for health reasons. Luis shares his experience of losing friends and a book deal after he started incorporating eggs and fish into his diet. Unique notes that many of her clients, particularly women, feel better after adding in legumes and some animal protein, but are afraid to do so openly due to social pressure.The conversation touches on the psychological and emotional components of eating. They discuss how a strict diet can sometimes be a trauma response, a way of exerting control or protecting oneself. They also note that a balanced diet, like the one offered by the Bean Protocol™, can create a sense of internal stability that allows people to address deeper emotional issues. Unique concludes by saying her upcoming book will frame the Bean Protocol ™ as an omnivore plan for healing, emphasizing that wellness requires effort, consistency, and a willingness to listen to one's body.Scientific Correction:Clarification: The human body needs a total of 20 amino acids to build proteins, 9 of which are essential and must come from food. The body can create complete proteins from a variety of plant sources, provided the diet is varied enough to supply all the essential amino acids. The feeling of improved health from adding animal protein is likely due to the higher concentration and more easily digestible form of protein (a complete protein) and fat-soluble vitamins found in animal products, which may be more challenging to obtain in sufficient amounts on a vegan diet, not due to an inability to break down carbohydrates.A Note on Veganism:It's important to recognize that not everyone chooses a vegan lifestyle for health reasons. For many, the choice is driven by a deep ethical commitment to animal welfare and environmental sustainability. For these individuals, the diet is a core part of their moral belief system, and they may be willing to sacrifice their own health if needed for the life of an animal. This is a powerful and personal choice that goes beyond the conversation about food as medicine.

How can we better manage anxiety by decreasing adrenaline levels through our food and eating habits? In this episode, we will be talking about the major hormone of stress and trauma - adrenaline. This episode will help you better understand the important role of adrenaline in stress, dsyregulation and stored trauma. Moreover, it will give you knowledge of how to learn more about your adrenaline levels based on your eating habits and the nutritional tools for balancing adrenaline. My good friend Luis Mojica, a somatic therapist, nutritionist and a musician is my guest for this episode. Like me, he started noticing how his biology and nutrition were affecting somatic work, got curious and started asking questions and testing his theories on himself. Luis came into this work through personal experience, having endured a lot of relational trauma in his personal life, he realized he used to binge eat thousands of calories in one sitting just to suppress his anxiety and social fear, until one day, by mistake, he played the guitar. This is when he discovered co-regulation and parasympathetic response, and he set off to research other modalities that could also create the same feeling of safety and was led to the type of trauma work he does now. In this episode, you'll learn: To track cravings back to childhood when we used food for internal regulation How eating certain types of foods can help us metabolize adrenaline How compulsive eating helps us regulate our nervous system What foods lead to experiencing perceived threats and chronic PTSD because of their effect on the adrenal glands How can we metabolize excess adrenaline using food Somatic practices that can help with accessing stored trauma in our stomach, managing cravings and digestive issues For more information and show notes, please visit our website: https://biologyoftrauma.com/biology-of-trauma-podcast/
