In this illuminating episode of 5 Minutes of Peace, we welcome special guest Will Johnson, author of The Radical Path of Somatic Dharma. Will invites us into a grounded, deeply embodied meditation that activates peace from the very center of your center.Through his guided practice, Will gently leads us to expand awareness across our three primary sensory fields—sound, sight, and body—and then unites them through the breath. With insights from the Buddha, Rumi, and mystic Emanuel Swedenborg, he reminds us that true peace is found not by escaping our body, but by breathing fully through it.This meditation is perfect for those seeking a somatic shift from tension and overthinking into presence, clarity, and calm. As Will says, “Feel yourself dissolving into peace.”Learn more about Will's work at www.embodiment.netAnd explore more meditations, Reiki treatments, and healing workshops at www.thepeaceroom.loveSubscribe and return each week for another moment of stillness on 5 Minutes of Peace, presented by The Peace Room, Boise.https://www.amazon.com/Radical-Path-Somatic-Dharma-Radiant/dp/B0CY9KJ28W

Episode 1: How Trauma Colors Our LifeLifeCode™: What happened to me shaped me, but it does not define me.Episode Summary:In this opening episode of The Soft Life as LifeCode™, Monica Wisdom invites you into a tender conversation about the invisible weight many of us carry. Before we can embrace softness, we must understand what hardened us.

This episode explores how trauma—both personal and generational—shapes the way we love, work, rest, and show up in the world. Monica breaks down what trauma is, how it lives in the body, and what it takes from us. Most importantly, she offers a powerful reframe: you are not broken, you are patterned. And patterns can be changed.

This is not about reliving the past. It's about reclaiming the power we lost along the way. This is the first step in your journey home to yourself.Mentioned in This Episode:Soft Life Mornings – A free 7-day audio series to gently guide your mornings with intention and grace.

Summary In this episode, Ali Damron delves into the concept of neuroplastic symptoms, emphasizing the significant role fear plays in chronic symptoms. She explains how fear can manifest in various forms and how it can perpetuate a cycle of symptoms.  The discussion covers the importance of understanding the symptom-fear cycle, breaking the fear loop, and reconditioning the brain to respond differently to symptoms. Ali also introduces the concept of somatic tracking as a tool for healing and encourages listeners to approach their symptoms with curiosity and gentleness.   Takeaways Many chronic symptoms may stem from brain patterns rather than physical damage. Fear can manifest in various forms, affecting our health. Changing our response to symptoms can help alleviate them. The symptom-fear cycle can create a feedback loop of anxiety and symptoms. Self-compassion and reducing pressure are crucial for healing. Predictive coding can lead to anticipating symptoms based on fear. It's essential to break the fear loop to regain control over symptoms. Reconditioning the brain involves teaching it that sensations are safe. Avoiding triggers can reinforce fear; exposure is necessary for healing. Somatic tracking is a powerful tool for changing the brain's relationship to symptoms.

When we think of autism, ADHD, or even trauma, we often place them in separate boxes, as distinct diagnoses with different treatment paths. But what if the reality is far more connected? What if complex trauma itself is a form of neurodivergence? What if masking, sensory overwhelm, and dissociation are not flaws to be fixed, but intelligent adaptations of a nervous system doing its best to survive? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we're joined by Dr. Megan Anna Neff, clinical psychologist, author of Self-Care for Autistic People, and co-host of the Divergent Conversations podcast. Dr. Neff sits down with Elisabeth and Jennifer for a powerful, eye-opening conversation about the deep overlap between autism, ADHD, complex PTSD, and sensory processing challenges and why embracing this intersection is key to healing and self-acceptance. Together, we explore how trauma shapes the neurodivergent brain, why so many autistic women remain undiagnosed, and how dissociation and emotional shutdowns are often rooted in sensory overload. Dr. Neff also shares her personal journey of late-diagnosed autism and ADHD, and the life-changing reframes that helped her make sense of her body and nervous system. This episode is not about pathologizing difference. It's about honoring the body's wisdom, reframing trauma as adaptation, and understanding why a nervous system-first approach to healing is essential. If you've struggled with masking, emotional dysregulation, chronic dissociation, or a lifetime of “being too much” or “not enough,” this conversation offers a compassionate, grounded lens to view your experience, and new possibilities for healing. Topics discussed in this episode: ● Masking: the hidden labor of social camouflage ● Why complex trauma is a form of neurodivergence ● Sensory trauma, sensory overload, and emotional shutdowns ● Dissociation as a protective nervous system response ● The gender gap in autism diagnosis and late identification ● How trauma and neurodivergence co-shape identity ● Reframing emotional expression and interoceptive deficits ● Why top-down cognitive strategies often fail without nervous system work ● Somatic and sensory tools for nervous system safety ● Why self-acceptance begins with honoring the body's adaptations Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching program: https://www.neurosomatic.com/leadership Learn more about Dr. Megan Anna Neff's work: Website: https://www.meganannaneff.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neurodivergent_insights/  Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the fall cohort now: https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Find Trauma Rewired on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TraumaRewired Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use our exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

The ancient wisdom that keeps coming back because it's true Athens, 399 BCE. Socrates holds the cup of hemlock, about to die for something that can't be proven - only known. The daimonion. The inner voice. The shamanic function that guides from beyond rational thought. 2,400 years later, we call it the unconscious. Or intuition. Or the default mode network. Same truth, different words: There's something in us that knows, and everything depends on whether we listen. This final episode reveals the perennial philosophy underlying all effective therapy. The wisdom that every culture discovers, then forgets, then rediscovers when the forgetting becomesunbearable. https://gettherapybirmingham.com/the-weird-history-of-psychotherapy-part-5-the-perennial-philosophy/ You'll learn: Why depression and anxiety might be evolutionary features, not bugs The eternal tension between warriors (order) and shamans (transformation) How modern neuroscience validates ancient insights about multiple selves Why we keep forgetting what works (hint: there's no profit in wholeness) The metamodern moment: learning to hold paradox in a polarized world What therapy looks like when it remembers we're shamanic beings From Socrates' inner voice to Jung's active imagination to modern parts work, the same insights keep emerging. Not because they're trendy, but because they're true. True like the sunrise. True like the need for love. True like the mystery we can never fully grasp but must learn to dance with.

Ooooh this episode hits near and dear to my heart. And as we recorded I kept thinking, they are going to love this one! In this episode, I sit down with the radiant Stasia Savasuk to talk about something that hits close to home for so many of us: the tender, tangled relationship between our bodies, our clothes, and our sense of self. We go deep into how personal style can actually become a healing practice—one that helps us come home to our bodies instead of performing someone else's version of beauty.Stasia shares her own journey of learning to listen to her body after years of shame, hustle, and hiding—especially in the wake of motherhood. We talk about fashion as a language of self-expression, intuitive eating as an act of rebellion, and why claiming your closet is sometimes the first step to reclaiming your life.She also shares such beautiful loving ways she talks with her kids about their bodies, that have stayed with me since our recording. This is a conversation about freedom. About dressing for your body, not against it. About letting joy, pleasure, and truth take up space on your literal and metaphorical hangers.

Send us a textIn this shadow-drenched episode of Third Eye Roll, we dive deep into the psychic underworld of Jyeṣṭhā Nakshatra—the elder star of power, protection, and private pain. Ruled by Indra, the battle-scarred king of the gods, Jyeṣṭhā reveals what happens when your throne is built on insecurity... and what transformation awaits when your shame turns into sight.We unpack:

Is burnout really a personal failing—or is the system setting us up to fail? In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Lauryn sits down with award-winning educator and leadership coach Dr. Veirdre Jackson to challenge one of the most harmful myths in healthcare: that self-care alone can fix burnout. If you've ever felt like you're drowning in responsibilities and being told to “just breathe,” this conversation is your lifeline.Together, they unpack why community care must replace performative self-care, how trauma lives in the nervous system, and what leaders can do to regulate their own stress before managing others. Dr. Jackson shares powerful, science-backed practices that foster true organizational resilience—plus, a practical “refill system” for creating cultures that sustain both providers and patients.Key Takeaways:Burnout is a system failure, not a personal weakness. Dr. Jackson explains how emotional exhaustion, cynicism, and low self-efficacy stem from unsustainable workloads, not a lack of bubble baths.Somatic regulation is a leadership skill. You can't lead others through chaos if your own nervous system is dysregulated—learn how to build moments of sensory reset into daily practice.Community care trumps performative self-care. True healing happens when workplaces build in reflection, release, and recovery, not when overwhelmed employees are told to "self-manage" more.The body holds the story. Trauma isn't just mental—it lives in the nervous system. Dr. Jackson shares how to read and respond to what stress signals are actually telling us.About the Guest:Dr. Veirdre Jackson is an award-winning author, educator, and the CEO of Living Strong Consulting. With over two decades of experience in nonprofit leadership and trauma-informed training, she equips organizations and individuals with the tools to foster resilience and create transformative change. A certified coach with the John Maxwell Team, Dr. Jackson is also the host of the internationally streamed podcast Living Strong: The Flip Side of Adversity, and the author of Fearless Conversations with a Limitless God.

Happy Satiated Saturday! How do you feel about eating around others?I remember in my years of struggling with food how scary it would feel to eat with others. There was a constant inner dialogue about eating the "right" things in the "right" amount. I would find myself consistently undereating when going out and then overeating or binge eating when I would get home, as I felt starving and dysregulated. Eating around other people can be filled with anxiety, overwhelm, and fear, where you may find yourself engaging in food behaviors afterward. If you grew up constantly criticized for your food choices, how much you ate, and your appearance, it can feel terrifying to eat around others.In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat about: Fear of Negative Evaluation (FNE)Why binge eating can increase after eating with others Somatic practices to try before, during, and after eating with othersYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/terrifying-to-eat-with-friends-and-familyWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxSupport 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/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 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/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Throughout our discussion, we underscore the importance of understanding and regulating the nervous system for personal magnetism and leadership, ultimately calling for embracing the full spectrum of one's being to lead a life of purpose and inspiration.

It comes at a cost.In this heart-opening episode of On Health, Aviva sits down with UK-based psychotherapist and author Helen Marie to explore:

Somatic reparations reframe healing from systemic trauma as an embodied revolution—not merely cognitive reframing, but cellular insurrection against the epigenetic residue of oppression.

Today's episode is for the woman who's doing everything right—and still feels like she's falling apart.   Colleen sits down with Laurie James, somatic coach and author of Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting Go to talk about what happens when your nervous system hits a breaking point. Laurie ended up in the hospital—twice—after leaving a toxic marriage, raising four daughters, dating again, writing a book, and trying to heal.   This is a raw, honest conversation about how success can hide trauma, why “pushing through” is often dissociation in disguise, and how to regulate your nervous system before your body takes matters into its own hands.

In this episode of Literally First Class, Keri Ford dives into the often-misunderstood world of healing and mental health - specifically, what the industry gets wrong. From the limits of talk therapy to the overuse of trauma buzzwords, she breaks down why somatic work is the missing piece for real transformation. You'll hear why “trauma-informed” isn't enough, how to spot trained practitioners, and how true healing starts with permission, not perfection. It's candid, eye-opening, and packed with insights for growth-driven women ready to deepen their personal evolution.   Takeaways: The healing and mental health space has significant gaps. Cognitive behavioral therapy often fails to create real transformation. Awareness alone is not enough for healing; integration is key. Healing involves allowing all feelings rather than trying to eliminate them. Permission is essential for true healing to occur. Over-pathologizing can perpetuate feelings of shame and brokenness. Spiritual bypassing can hinder genuine healing efforts. Not all practitioners are equally trained; discernment is crucial. Somatic work addresses the deeper layers of trauma. True healing requires a personalized approach based on individual experiences.   Episode Resources: Book your free 15-minute Somatic Strategy Call with Jalena (no sales pitch, just a free nervous system audit)!

We often think of gut health as a matter of diet. What we eat, how we digest, and how we eliminate. But what if your digestive issues, bloating, or IBS symptoms aren't just physical? What if your gut is holding onto unprocessed emotional trauma, stress, and nervous system dysregulation? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we're joined by Christy Nault, a root cause health practitioner and founder of Hormone Glow Up and Microflow Healing. Christy sits down with Elisabeth and Jennifer for a powerful conversation about the connection between trauma and gut health, and how healing begins not with food, but with safety in the nervous system. Together, we explore how chronic stress, childhood trauma, and perfectionism deplete our minerals, disrupt digestion, and throw off our hormones, metabolism, and mental health. Christy shares her own story of living with POTS, IBS, endometriosis, and mass cell activation syndrome, and how her recovery began through parasite cleansing, circadian rhythm regulation, and somatic healing. This episode isn't about a one-size-fits-all gut protocol.

We often think of trauma as a deeply personal experience, shaped by our childhood, relationships, and emotional wounds. But what if some of our deepest pain didn't start with us? What if trauma is embedded in the very systems we're born into - our medical institutions, cultural ideologies, and societal norms? In today's episode, we're joined by Dr. Tayla Shanaye, somatic therapist, scholar, and expert in birth trauma and structural oppression. Tayla joins Elisabeth and Jennifer for a powerful exploration of how ideologies like white supremacy, patriarchy, and ableism don't just shape policies, they live in our bodies, shaping how we birth, connect, and heal. Together, they discuss the medicalization of childbirth, the systemic invalidation of birthing bodies, and how trauma is passed down generationally through embodied experiences. This episode invites us to look at birth as more than a physical event, it's a moment of transformation, a portal, and for many, a site of trauma that is rarely acknowledged. Tayla also shares deeply personal stories of pregnancy, birth, and healing, highlighting the need for preparation, integration, and community-based support to create a culture where somatic safety and agency are the norm. You'll hear how nervous system awareness, collective ritual, and somatic abolitionism can radically change how we relate to our bodies and to each other. If you've ever felt broken by birth, silenced in your experience, or curious about how deep healing begins at the structural level, this episode is for you. Topics discussed in this episode: ● The medicalization of birth and its traumatic impact ● Why trauma is systemic—not just personal ● How ideologies like racism and patriarchy are embodied ● The role of the nervous system in healing generational trauma ● Somatic healing and reclaiming bodily agency ● Historical roots of obstetric violence and experimentation ● The missing rituals of birth preparation and integration ● How voice, safety, and co-regulation shape our healing ● The vision of community-led, embodied care ● Why embodiment is key to creating real culture Ready to reclaim your voice, your safety, and your power?
