What is Trauma and how we can heal with Rama AchalaTrauma Informed Somatic Coach & Medicine WomanRama is a trauma informed and somatic practitioner, a plant medicine integration coach, a teacher of kambo amazonian medicine, a speaker and a medicine woman. She has supported thousands, all over north America and Costa Rica, to heal mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. After being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, Rama went against the recommendations of Dr's, said no to injections and pharmaceuticals, and chose her own healing journey. That journey lead her to plant medicines like ayahuasca, San Pedro and the frog medicine, Kambo. She spent many years working with shaman and curanderos, processing unhealed trauma, integrating mystical experiences and remembering the scariness of life.On Rama's own healing journey, she learned how deeply mind, body and emotions are connected and how chronic illnesses can stem from unprocessed trauma stored in the body and unconscious mind. She believes we all have the ability to heal ourselves, if we are willing to listen to what our bodies are telling us.Linkshttps://www.heartofkambo.comhttps://www.instagram.com/heartofkambo?igsh=MTlybW51OTlqendzbg%3D%3D&utm_source=qrTags:Alternative Healing Techniques,Chronic Illness,Mind-Body Connection,Mindset,Plant Medicine Integration,Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD),Psychedelics,Self Care,Self-Discovery,Trauma Recovery,What is Trauma and how we can heal with Rama Achala,Podcast,Live Video Podcast InterviewSupport PEG by checking out our Sponsors:Download and use Newsly for free now from www.newsly.me or from the link in the description, and use promo code “GHOST” and receive a 1-month free premium subscription.The best tool for getting podcast guests:https://podmatch.com/signup/phantomelectricghostSubscribe to our Instagram for exclusive content:https://www.instagram.com/expansive_sound_experiments/Subscribe to our YouTube https://youtube.com/@phantomelectricghost?si=rEyT56WQvDsAoRprRSShttps://anchor.fm/s/3b31908/podcast/rssSubstackhttps://substack.com/@phantomelectricghost?utm_source=edit-profile-page
False accusations cut deeper than most people realize. For survivors of abuse, they don't just create conflict — they echo the original wound. In this episode of The Empowering Story Podcast, I share how facing false accusations retraumatized me by triggering the very silence I knew as a child: no one defended me, no one spoke up, no one stood beside me. We'll explore: ✨ How the body remembers abandonment long before the mind can name it ✨ Why false accusations uniquely target a survivor's reclaimed strengths — voice, credibility, boundaries ✨ The paradox of being a trauma professional who is still human and still triggered ✨ How I learned to turn triggers from derailment into bridges of resonance with my clients ✨ Why integration requires community — and how to discern safe people from unsafe ones This isn't about erasing pain. It's about transforming it. About shifting from wounds we carry to wisdom we own.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken and Heather Hughes dive deep into the topic of addiction — exploring what drives addictive behaviors, how trauma and unmet needs often fuel the cycle, and why Splankna can be such a powerful tool in the healing process. Together, they examine addiction not only through the lens of neuroscience and psychology but also through faith, Scripture, and God's heart for freedom. ✨ Takeaways: Addiction is often rooted in unresolved pain and generational patterns. Understanding the brain's reward system helps explain why addictions feel so overwhelming. Faith and inner healing offer hope when willpower alone is not enough. Splankna provides a way to uncover the spiritual and emotional roots of addictive behaviors. God's design for healing means freedom is possible — even from long-standing patterns.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura shares the powerful origin story that brought her into the world of Splankna: her son Noah's miraculous breakthrough from debilitating separation anxiety. After a unique Splankna session revealed a subconscious memory from infancy, Noah experienced an overnight transformation that reshaped his behavior and brought peace to their family. This story is a touching example of how early life trauma can remain hidden—and how healing is possible when we tap into the subconscious mind. ✨ Takeaways: Subconscious memories, even from infancy, can have profound effects on our current emotional struggles. Splankna accesses the body's stored memory through muscle testing, revealing root causes that talk therapy may not uncover. Healing can come quickly and powerfully when the root issue is addressed. Noah's one-session transformation illustrates the incredible potential of faith-based energy work. This experience is what convinced Laura of the depth and validity of Splankna.

Checking in after 2 years since I was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer to share that recovery from the trauma of a diagnosis is possible. In the last episode I talked about inner strength that I use in managing my mindset as a survivor. The outlook of knowing I will be ok and controlling the things I am allowed to control does not restrict me from looking back at my recovery. This podcast is about sharing my story and advocating. The milestones of recovery from what makes up a diagnosis are important to reflect on, in my opinion. Since it is summer, I am going to my pool fairly often right now. I love how the water feels on my body and swimming has always been a therapeutic activity for me. So of course I went to my pool as soon as I could after my surgery (2 years ago). As I work to set goals in my life (also something I talked about in the last episode), I am planning more fun activities each week. Last week I met up at the pool with a few friends and neighbors. This pool time (alone or with friends) is what I call a “great escape”. It is not really an adventure but it takes me to such a different place the moment I enter the gates of the pool. I crave these moments away from all that makes up my life. In the pool (at the pool), it is a time to move in the water and release physical and emotional tension as I swim (usually very leisurely) up and down the lanes. Last week, when I was with my friends, we sat and ate chips and dip (definitely therapeutic) before going to kick and talk in the water. We had a lot of space to ourselves and it was a completely relaxing block of time. So as in last week's episode I talked about doing more than just going through the motions of each week in a month, year, etc., I share my experience of how this can be such a boost to keeping connected and having a positive outlook plus some fun during a day in my breast cancer life. I cannot say for sure if I would have found it so important to block out fun and intentionally plan my life ahead (for fun and function) if I had not been diagnosed with breast cancer. I do know that because of my breast cancer experience, I am grasping on to opportunities to have fun and connect with others, while also taking care of me with great intention.

EP297: Can I Trust Me to Show Up? In this episode, we take a close look at something we don't talk about enough: the quiet ways we drift from ourselves. We often pride ourselves on being reliable, supportive, and present for others—but what happens when we're not offering the same loyalty inward? This isn't about harsh self-criticism or impossible standards. It's about noticing the gap between what we say we want and what we actually follow through on when it comes to our own needs, boundaries, and truth. We explore why we tend to abandon ourselves in small ways and how that adds up over time—not because we're weak, but because we were taught to survive that way. This isn't about fixing yourself. It's about remembering how to listen, recommit, and rebuild the trust you've been craving from within. No drama. No shame. Just one small, self-honoring moment at a time. Three Takeaways: 1. There's a big difference between being dependable for others and being dependable for yourself. 2. The small moments where you follow through—or don't—have a bigger impact than you think. 3. Rebuilding self-trust doesn't require perfection, just consistent presence and gentle repair. Top of Form Bottom of Form Every small promise you keep to yourself matters. That's how the healing begins. Get your FREE Boundaries Ebook here! If you're ready to find your voice, set healthy boundaries, and create more fulfilling relationships, this guide is your roadmap!

Burnout and trauma can feel like dead ends, but what if they're inflection points for growth? In this episode of Heartline: Changemaking in Healthcare, I, Dr. Andrea Austin, share a deeply personal chapter from my book Revitalized, reflecting on my recovery from soul-level burnout during the pandemic. Drawing on lessons from therapy, coaching, and vulnerability, I explore the power of “and”—embracing pain while finding joy. I discuss top-down (e.g., CBT) and bottom-up (e.g., EMDR, somatic) therapies, along with the role of coaching for future-focused growth. Inspired by Dr. Lorna Breen's story, I advocate for stigma-free mental health support and share the power of having hard conversations to foster revitalization.You'll hear how to:· Differentiate therapy and coaching to address burnout or trauma.· Embrace vulnerability to build connection and resilience.· Navigate life quakes with intentional inner work.If you're grappling with burnout or trauma, this episode offers hope and practical steps for healing.
In today's solo episode, I open up about the ongoing evolution of my grief journey after losing my husband, Paul. I reflect on how my grief has shifted over time—from a gaping wound to a quiet, ever-present companion. It hasn't been easy. The emotional challenges, the deep inner work, and the conscious choices I've had to make are all part of this path toward finding moments of peace and even joy. I share from the heart about how grief transforms as life moves forward, how healing doesn't mean forgetting, and why it's so important to honor your own unique process. Whether you're just beginning your grief journey or have been walking it for years, I hope this episode brings you comfort, understanding, and a reminder that healing is possible—even when it feels out of reach.

Your mind says you're safe, but your body still feels tense, overwhelmed, and stuck in danger mode. Why does this happen? In this mini episode, Dr. Aimie goes into the biology behind why mental and emotional healing doesn't always translate into physical healing. You'll learn how trauma gets “stuck” in your nervous system, why your body can keep sending danger signals even when your mind feels better, and practical ways to help your body feel safe enough to recover. Your nervous system works like a dashboard, constantly checking if you can handle what's happening or need to shut down. When it stays stuck in survival mode, even after therapy, it can cause chronic pain, fatigue, and other symptoms. The good news is, you can help your body feel safe again and start to heal. In this episode, you'll find out more about: The difference between stress vs. trauma (and why it's not about the event itself!) Why your body creates a personal safety filter based on past experiences How inflammation, toxins, and hidden stressors send danger signals to your nervous system Why your body's natural healing shuts down when you're in survival mode Simple ways to track and shift your nervous system state every day Whether you're doing your own healing or supporting clients who still feel stuck physically despite mental progress, this episode reveals the missing piece of trauma recovery. You'll gain a clearer understanding of the body's signals and walk away with practical tools to help the body catch up with the mind.
Once paraded in the media as a hero, Dr. James Henry became the symbol of a “progressive” military—the first openly transgender active-duty officer. But the story the public saw was only part of the truth. In this episode, Dr. Henry shares what really happened behind the scenes. The early struggles with identity. The weight of religious shame. The celebration that came with transitioning—and the breakdown that followed. He opens up about being misdiagnosed, overmedicated, and failed by the very systems meant to protect him. Now, years later, Dr. Henry faces a federal indictment after a confrontation with the FBI. This is not a story of affirmation. It's a story of survival, betrayal, and the cost of speaking out.
