In a world filled with noise, speed, and constant distractions, it's easy to feel overwhelmed, anxious, and disconnected. But what if the answer to our modern crisis isn't something new—but something ancient? In this episode of The Science of Self-Healing, we explore how meditation—once seen as a spiritual ritual—is now backed by science as a powerful tool for mental, emotional, and physical transformation. You'll discover what meditation really is, how it affects the brain and body, and why even just a few minutes a day can lead to deeper healing, clarity, and peace. Whether you're a skeptic, a beginner, or someone looking to deepen your practice, this episode offers insights and inspiration for anyone ready to reconnect with themselves and reclaim calm in the chaos.

In this candid and heartfelt episode, I sat down with military‑veteran‑turned‑author J.M. Zamudio to unpack a powerful story of complex PTSD and the lifelong impact of growing up as an adult child of an alcoholic. From her “dark night of the soul” in 2021 to the 2025 release of her debut novel, Memories of You, Jess describes how dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness meditation, and radical self‑love helped her crawl “out of the grave by her fingernails.” Listeners will hear practical insights on emotion regulation, distress‑tolerance skills, and harm‑reduction techniques with an honest look at how impostor syndrome can keep trauma survivors from seeking help. If you're searching for guidance on healing childhood trauma, overcoming depression, or finding the right therapist, this conversation offers a roadmap packed with lived experience and evidence‑based tools. The episode also explores the ripple effects of recovery: rebuilding intimate relationships, transforming pain into creative fuel, and learning to accept compassion from others. CONNECT WITH J.M.
