CONTENT HEADS UP: Be enriched by a thoughtfully crafted conversation where sensitive topics related to trauma, torture, and self-loathing are gently woven into a narrative that is ultimately about love. There are no graphic descriptions of torture, just some causes and effects, but we nonetheless recommend that sensitive listeners prioritize their well-being and engage at their own discretion/pace. Also, for those intrigued by the idea of swimming with whales, a friendly reminder to follow safety guidelines and never venture alone into such deep waters.SYNOPSIS:Join us in this episode as we connect with Amber Gray, a masterful Human Rights Psychotherapist and Somatic and Dance/Movement Therapist with over 25 years of experience. Through her profound insights gained from working with survivors of trauma, particularly torture, war, and human rights abuses, Amber shares invaluable lessons and practices.Ali and Amber explore the profound lessons Amber has gleaned from her work with both whales and torture victims, professors and shamans, including the complexities of dissociation, what traditional trauma recovery misses, and the impactful ability to shift one's state of being.Amber's integrative approach, which merges refugee mental health and torture treatment with creative arts, mindfulness, and body-based therapies, offers a unique perspective on healing. The discussion also delves into the innovative Restorative Movement Psychotherapy, a resiliency-based framework co-created by Amber and her clients, designed specifically for trauma survivors in diverse cultural contexts.MORE ALI MEZEY:Website:  https://www.alimezey.comPersonal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course informationTransgenerational Healing FilmsMORE AMBER GRAY:Website: https://ambergray.comTo be with Amber and the whalesBIO: Amber is a Human Rights Psychotherapist and a Somatic and Dance/Movement Therapist who has worked with survivors of interpersonal, collective  and intergenerational trauma, particularly torture, war, and human rights abuses, for 25 years.

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. It's about understanding the gut-brain connection, why your symptoms may keep returning, and how nervous system regulation, emotional integration, and personalized healing can restore your health from the inside out. If you've struggled with leaky gut, autoimmune symptoms, histamine intolerance, or protocols that didn't work, this conversation offers a grounded, compassionate path forward. Topics discussed in this episode: ● The gut as an emotional and sensory organ ● How chronic stress depletes minerals and slows digestion ● Parasite cleansing and root-cause gut healing ● Why top-down protocols often fail without nervous system regulation ● The impact of childhood trauma on long-term health ● Gut-brain axis, emotional suppression, and vagal tone ● Circadian rhythms, blue light, and hormonal regulation ● Emotional digestion vs. food digestion ● Somatic tools for safe and effective healing ● Why small daily shifts create the deepest change Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching program: neurosomatic.com/leadership   Learn more about Christy Nault's work at: Website: christynault.com Instagram: instagram.com/itschristynault Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the fall cohort now: neurosomaticintelligence.com Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: rewiretrial.com Find Trauma Rewired on YouTube: YouTube.com/@TraumaRewired Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group: facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use our exclusive offer: drinkag1.com/rewired Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

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?

In this episode, we're going to explore the power of being fully present with the painful emotions we experience and how, exactly, to do this (as well as how not to do it). This topic might seem like an oddly placed one in the midst of a season of episodes that's intended to be geared towards conscious relationships. And yet, the truth is that emotional opposites are intimately entangled. Painful emotions and pleasurable emotions are, in essence, two sides of the same dualistic coin. And that's why this episode is included here in the midst of a season about conscious relationships, love, connection, etc. Because to love more consciously we must bring more consciousness to all of our feeling experiences—the painful ones included.ResourcesFocusing ResourcesFocusing Therapy: The Classic Six StepsFocusing-Oriented Therapy Instructions (PDF guide)Focusing-Oriented Therapy One: Learning How the Body Speaks and Listening so it Heals (workshop)Podcast EpisodesEp. 92: Beyond Victimhood—Reclaiming and revealing your own inner HeroEp. 88: Healing Beyond Shame: How shame sustains shadow repression + how to disintegrate 'Shamewalls'Ep. 32: Spiritual Bypassing and the Fragmented SelfEp. 10: Triggered: Using emotional triggers as a roadmap to healingReclamation Radio by Dr. Kelly Brogan: Ep. 100—How to Stop Repeating Toxic Relationship PatternsBooksHow to Be Loving* by Daniella LaPorteHow to Do the Work* by Dr. Nicole LePeraThe Surrender Experiment* by Michael A.

In a spontaneous episode, Ethan discusses grief and loss while processing multiple events. At a recent compassion meditation retreat, colleague and friend René Fay gave a presentation where she discussed the need to “Microdose Grief,” to take it in little by little so that we can honor the small moments of loss to develop familiarity with the experience when the big waves come. Through remembering the life and the recent death of a dharma friend, Ethan explores a famous buddhist quote about impermanence (“The Cup Is Already Broken”) and explores how grief can be used as a tool for popping our hearts and minds outside of the confines of linear time, into the spontaneous presence and open-heartedness of what the Zen masters call “Being Time.” This episode of The Road Home is dedicated to the memory of Ralph De La Rosa, who was a friend (and a guest on the podcast) who passed away suddenly on May 10, 2025. Ralph was a dharma teacher and trauma therapist, as well as the author of three books which each explored Internal Family Systems and Somatic Therapy in relation to Tantric Buddhist thought: Outshining Trauma, Don't Tell Me To Relax, and Monkey is the Messenger.

In this episode, we're going to explore the concept of emotional addiction. Season 4 is all about conscious relationships—with loved ones, partners, family members, friends, colleagues, and perhaps most importantly, with ourselves. The better we know ourselves and the more we understand how this human body computer system that we inhabit works, the more consciously we're able to show up in all aspects of our lives, relationships included. Sources + Resources List (it was too long to include in the show notes, so I dropped the list in a google doc for you)_____Disclaimer: This podcast is intended for entertainment and informational purposes only and does not substitute individual psychological advice.*This is an affiliate link.

In this episode, we break down what somatic therapy is, how it differs from talk therapy, and bust some common myths about it. We also dive into the fight-or-flight response, how unprocessed stress impacts emotional regulation, and practical ways to use somatic therapy techniques in daily life.

"Mariya Javed-Payne takes us on a deep dive into one of the most unconventional and neuroscience-backed healing modalities—brainspotting. As someone who battled severe addiction and exhausted traditional therapeutic approaches, she experienced a profound breakthrough through this somatic-based intervention, ultimately leading to her full recovery and a commitment to guiding others on their healing journeys." Journey into the world of brainspotting therapy , where the cerebellum plays a key role in emotional processing , and humor  becomes an unexpected tool in trauma healing. Dive into the depths of collective grief , explore marginalized healing practices, and uncover the powerful intersection of medicine and therapy.Key Highlights 

In this episode of the Homebody Podcast, I explore the multifaceted nature of healing, focusing on the importance of combining body-based practices like somatic therapy with traditional talk therapy. We delve into the limitations of verbalising emotions and explains how somatic therapy addresses stored trauma in the body, highlighting the gut-brain connection, showing how nutrition and gut health play a significant role in emotional wellbeing. Additionally, we discuss the crucial role of light exposure in regulating mood, sleep, and overall mental health. Tune in for practical tips on lifestyle changes and body awareness techniques to enhance your healing journey. Key Takeaways: - Healing involves both intellectual understanding and body-based practices. - Talk therapy can help process thoughts, but it may not create a full body shift in healing. - Somatic therapy addresses emotional trauma stored in the body, facilitating deeper healing. - The limbic system stores emotional experiences, making it difficult to fully process them without body-based work. - Nutrition and gut health have a significant impact on mental and emotional wellbeing. - Morning sunlight exposure is essential for regulating mood and sleep. - Reducing blue light exposure at night can improve sleep quality and mental health. - Breathwork and grounding practices are simple ways to support nervous system regulation. - Combining body-based healing with cognitive processing creates a comprehensive healing plan. - Experimenting with different techniques helps find the ones that resonate most with your healing journey.

Episode Overview:In this episode, I have the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Hebe Dickins, a somatic therapist, energy psychologist, and yoga and meditation teacher. Hebe's journey started in the world of acting, but her deep curiosity about the mind-body connection led her into the fields of trauma healing, energy psychology, and somatic therapy.We dive deep into what trauma really is, how it can show up in our lives (often without us realizing it), and the power of the body in processing and healing emotional wounds. Whether you've explored somatic work before or are just hearing about it for the first time, this episode will give you a fresh perspective on the ways trauma can manifest and how we can reconnect with ourselves through the body.What We Discuss:What trauma really is and how it affects the nervous systemThe difference between “talk therapy” and somatic therapyWhy so many people feel “stuck” and how trauma can be at the root of itThe body's role in storing and processing traumaHow trauma can impact relationships, intimacy, and self-worthWays to tell if you're embodied or disconnected from your bodyPractical steps to start reconnecting with your body and emotionsThe importance of honoring our nervous system's capacity and not pushing beyond our limitsHow Hebe's own journey with trauma healing has shaped her work todayHow to Know if Trauma is Affecting YouHebe shares some key signs that you might be carrying unresolved trauma in your body:You feel stuck in life, unable to move forward despite wanting to.You experience chronic stress, fatigue, or a feeling of "shutting down".You tend to be in a constant state of hypervigilance or overthinking.You struggle with intimacy, emotional numbness, or disconnection from loved ones.You feel like you're always on autopilot, disconnected from your emotions or physical sensations.If any of these resonate with you, Hebe offers insight into gentle, body-based healing approaches that can help.How to Start Reconnecting with Your Body:Pay attention to your body signals. Start noticing when you feel tension, numbness, or ease.Engage in body-based practices. This could be as simple as stretching, yoga, dance, or breathwork.Ask yourself, "What's great about this that I'm not getting?" This question can shift your perspective when facing challenges.Slow down and practice self-compassion. Your body is always working for you—listen to what it's trying to say.Resources & How to Connect with Hebe:Hebe's Website: AliveUK.co.ukFinal Thoughts:This conversation with Hebe was rich, insightful, and deeply grounding.

In this episode, Stef and Sarah delve into the emotional topic of the mother wound. The discussion begins with light-hearted banter but quickly deepens into a profound conversation about the impact mothers have on their children. They explore insights from books like "Mother Hunger" by Kelly McDaniel and "Discovering the Inner Mother" by Bethany Webster but also bring personal experiences into the room. The hosts discuss the different ways mothers can nurture and unintentionally wound their children (is the Mother Wound even avoidable from an existential perspective?) and how these experiences shape adult relationships and self-concept, including our relationships with food and bodies. They also touch on the societal pressures mothers face and the challenges of achieving a balance between nurturing, protection, and guidance.
