    Autoimmunity and Post-Traumatic Growth: When the Body Becomes the Teacher

    In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we explore autoimmune conditions through a nervous-system and psychoneuroimmunology lens—moving beyond the idea that the body is "attacking itself." Instead, we examine autoimmunity as an adaptive output of a system that has lived in chronic threat for too long. Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof unpack how immune response, emotional expression, boundaries, trauma history, and social stress intersect at the level of physiology. Drawing on research from ACEs, chronic inflammation, the HPA axis, the inflammatory reflex, and shame-based immune activation, they explain how the brain's predictions—rather than isolated biology—shape immune behavior. You'll hear why autoimmune conditions disproportionately affect women and marginalized communities, how emotional suppression and boundary violations translate into inflammation, and why anger, shame, and safety are biological—not just psychological—processes. The episode closes with a grounded conversation on post-traumatic growth: what it means to live in partnership with the body, retrain predictions through sensory and interoceptive work, and expand resilience alongside medical care. This is an invitation to replace self-blame with curiosity—and to see regulation, expression, and safety as central to immune health.     Timestamps 00:00 – Intro: Autoimmune as protection, not self-attack 08:40 – Autoimmune, ACEs, gender, and nervous system prediction 21:05 – Chronic inflammation, HPA axis & the inflammatory reflex 35:20 – Boundaries, anger, shame & post-traumatic growth 52:00 – Closing reflections & integration     Key Takeaways Autoimmune responses can be understood as nervous-system outputs shaped by prediction and chronic threat. Early adversity, emotional suppression, and social stress significantly increase inflammatory load. Boundaries are physiological capacities rooted in interoception and proprioception—not just communication skills. Training safety, expression, and regulation can complement medical care and reduce flare frequency.     Call to Action:   Join us for a free NSI workshop Feb 11: Integrating the Nervous System with Precision and Purpose: https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/integration-workshop/   Learn to work with Boundaries at the level of the body and nervous system at boundaryrewire.com Sacred Synapse: an educational YouTube channel founded by Jennifer Wallace that explores nervous system regulation, applied neuroscience, consciousness, and psychedelic preparation and integration through Neurosomatic Intelligence.  Wayfinder Journal: Track nervous system patterns and support preparation and integration through Neurosomatic Intelligence.

    In this encore episode, we highlight vitamin D₃ in gastrointestinal health, with a focus on intestinal barrier function and the gut-immune axis. We discuss how vitamin D is metabolized into its active form, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, and how 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D can support intestinal health, while highlighting intestinal mucosal anatomy.Topics:1. Introduction - Highlighting intestinal barrier function and the gut-immune axis with a focus on vitamin D₃ 2. Vitamin D Synthesis and Metabolism - Skin and 7-dehydrocholesterol; dietary intake.- Transported through the bloodstream bound to vitamin D binding protein.- First hydroxylation in the liver to form 25-hydroxyvitamin D₃ (25(OH)D₃).- Testing.- Second hydroxylation in the kidney to form the active 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D₃ (1,25(OH)₂D₃).- Local activation also occurs. 3. Intestinal Barrier Anatomy - The intestinal epithelium forms a selectively permeable monolayer that interfaces with the gut lumen.- Covered by a mucus layer.- Tight junction proteins and paracellular permeability.- The lamina propria and Gut-Associated Lymphoid Tissue (GALT). - Maintaining tolerance.  4. Vitamin D - 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D₃, tight junction integrity, immune regulation, and more. 5. Vitamin D₂ and D₃  6.

    Today is the Part 2 re-run of the vitamin D series, Tara moves beyond basic lab values and takes a closer look at what can happen when vitamin D supplementation goes too far — and why more is not always better. She explains how today's standard reference ranges are built on shaky assumptions, how high-dose vitamin D can create real imbalances in the body, and why symptoms like mood changes, calcium shifts, mitochondrial stress, and even worsening autoimmune issues can sometimes be linked to over-supplementation. Most importantly, Tara shares a smarter, root-cause approach to supporting healthy vitamin D levels without relying on megadoses that may do more harm than good.  In Part 2, Tara covers: • Why common vitamin D reference ranges may be misleading • Signs and symptoms of vitamin D overload • Why a "just take more" approach misses the bigger picture • The key cofactors your body needs to properly use vitamin D If you've ever been told to simply increase your vitamin D without deeper investigation, this episode will help you ask better questions and take a more balanced, informed approach to your health.   Mentioned in this episode: MegaSporeBiotic – Click HERE to grab this probiotic and use my practitioner code, which also gets you 10% off: TaraMegaSpore Paleovalley – Grab your goodies as mentioned in this episode, HERE Blue Light Blocking Glasses Recommendations: Baxter Blue (Australian site) Save 15% when you use Tara's code: Tara15 Bon Charge Save 15% when you use Tara's code: TARA15   HRT Made Simple™ - Learn how to confidently speak to your doctor about the benefits of hormone replacement therapy so you can set yourself up for symptom-free, unmedicated years to come without feeling confused, dismissed, or leaving the medical office minus your HRT script.

    What if depression isn't “all in your head," but in your body?
In this powerful conversation, host Erin Kerry is joined by Dr. James Greenblatt, MD—one of the world's leading voices in functional and integrative psychiatry and the pioneer of low-dose nutritional lithium for mental health. For more than 30 years, Dr. Greenblatt has been sounding the alarm that psychiatry can do better. Much better. And the research finally agrees: depression is influenced by nutrient deficiencies, immune activation, gut dysfunction, endocrine imbalance, and the brain's biochemical wiring. This episode unpacks the root causes of depression, why nutritional psychiatry is essential for healing, the truth about serotonin, what clinicians get wrong about deprescribing, and the overlooked nutrients that often make the difference between struggling and thriving. If you've ever felt hopeless, stuck, or confused by your symptoms—or if traditional treatments haven't worked—this episode will help you see your mental health through an entirely new (and hopeful) lens. Key Topics: - Why nutritional psychiatry needs to be integrated into all mental health treatment plans - The role of amino acids as precursors for neurotransmitters - Serotonin and depression: science vs. marketing - What everyone should know about deprescribing antidepressants - How B vitamins impact mood, methylation, and energy production - The mineral deficiencies most commonly seen in depression - The nutritional patterns that support recovery from chronic low mood - Root causes of PMDD and natural ways to reduce symptoms - Why Vitamin D is a pivotal regulator of mood and stress - The surprising role of cholesterol and healthy fats in mental health—and why low cholesterol can increase depression risk - How functional psychiatry gets to the root cause instead of masking symptoms - A preview of Dr. Greenblatt's new book, Finally Hopeful

    From Survival to Learning: Why Motivation Shuts Down Under Chronic Stress

    Have you ever shared an idea, been met with silence, and felt your body instantly brace like something was wrong? Or walked to your car and suddenly felt flooded by an old fear, even though nothing "new" happened? In this episode, we explore how trauma and chronic stress can shift the brain from learning mode into survival mode, shaping what we remember, how we recall it, and how safe it feels to stay curious. You will hear why memory is not a perfect recording, how present-day state influences recall, and how the nervous system can tag even subtle cues, like a pause or a tone, as danger when past experiences taught your body that silence equals disconnection. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof (founder of BrainBased.com and the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification) and Jennifer Wallace (Neurosomatic Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Guide) are joined by Matt Bush, founder of Next Level Neuro and lead educator in the NSI certification. Together, they unpack explicit vs. implicit memory, how the hippocampus, amygdala, and prefrontal cortex influence recall and learning, and how regulation, sensory inputs, and repetition can support integration and post-traumatic growth.   Timestamps: 00:00 A real-life trigger: when silence, social cues, or context flips the body into survival 08:00 Memory basics: explicit vs. implicit, plus episodic, semantic, emotional, and procedural memory 16:00 Why memory is reconstructive: state, prediction, and sensory integration shape recall 24:00 Trauma + memory: hippocampus, amygdala, and why facts fade while sensations intensify 33:00 Learning after trauma: attention as a nervous system state, and why willpower is not the lever 42:00 Memory reconsolidation and "windows" for updating threat charge with regulation 55:00 Psychedelics, preparation, and nervous system training: capacity, safety, and integration 1:07:00 Motivation, dopamine pathways, and rebuilding curiosity through safe repetition 1:18:00 Closing reframes: contraction and expansion, neurodiversity, and reducing sensory "noise" Key Takeaways: Trauma can disrupt how memories are stored and recalled, especially under high stress, without it being a personal failure. Memory is reconstructive, and your current nervous system state can change how both positive and negative memories feel. Learning is embodied: attention, curiosity, and motivation depend on safety signals in the body, not just mindset. Regulation plus recall can create opportunities to update threat charge and build new predictions over time. Repetition is not just practice. It is consistent exposure to safety while doing something new.

    In this eye-opening episode with Nadine Artemis, author of Renegade Beauty and Holistic Dental Care, we challenge everything you thought you knew about the sun. She unpacks why sunlight has become so controversial, tracing the history of heliotherapy and the very real biological need humans have for natural light. Nadine dives into the surprising benefits of sun exposure even in the winter, how light entering the eyes affects our hormones, and what the melanoma research actually shows when you look beyond the headlines. The conversation takes a bold turn as she exposes the real issues with modern sunscreen, explores vitamin D–rich foods in cold climates, and explains the deep connection between sunlight, bone health, and strong teeth. We also discuss tanning beds, the melanotan peptide, melatonin as a form of internal sun protection, and what our skin was truly designed to do. Packed with practical daily sun and light guidance, this episode will completely reshape how you think about sunshine, skin health, and long-term vitality. Nadine Artemis, the author of Renegade Beauty and Holistic Dental Care, is the creator of Living Libations, a pure and luxurious line of organic oral care, botanical beauty care, and medicinal elixirs often called the “holy grail” of wholesome skincare. Artemis is an innovative aromacologist, and her healing formulations and her concept of renegade beauty encourage effortlessness, engaging with the elements, and inspires people to rethink conventional notions of wellness and beauty.

With an extensive background in chiropractic care, Dr. Hieshetter has gained recognition for her innovative approach to healthcare, focusing on the interplay between modern medicine and holistic treatments.

Episode Summary: In this engaging episode of Functional Health Radio, Dr. Kristin Hieshetter delves into the alarming decline in life expectancy in the United States and the rise of chronic diseases among children. She questions the efficacy of current healthcare spending and emphasizes the importance of optimizing human potential through functional health strategies. The episode is packed with actionable insights on protecting DNA from free radical damage and improving overall well-being. Dr. Hieshetter introduces the concept of the "Core 4" essential supplements—multivitamins, magnesium, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamin D3 with K2—and highlights their critical role in promoting longevity and preventing chronic diseases. Drawing from recent studies, she discusses how these supplements can enhance cognitive function, reduce inflammation, and support cellular health.

    Today's episode is a rerun of one of the most important conversations I've ever shared on the podcast, all about vitamin D. As the podcast library grows, some truly foundational episodes can get buried, and this is information that's simply too important to lose. This is part one of a two-part series, and if you've never listened (or even if you have), it's well worth revisiting. Is your vitamin D "deficiency" actually a misdiagnosis? In this eye-opening episode, Tara dives into one of the most misunderstood nutrients in functional medicine: vitamin D. While most practitioners rush to prescribe high doses of vitamin D based on a single lab marker (25(OH)D), Tara challenges the status quo and breaks down why this approach can be both misleading and harmful, especially for women in perimenopause.  She explains the critical difference between 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)₂D, why elevated active vitamin D (1,25) often goes unnoticed, and how it can actually suppress your vitamin D storage while driving up inflammation, calcium loss, and even contributing to autoimmune conditions and bone loss. This episode is a must-listen if you've ever felt confused about whether to supplement or if you've been taking vitamin D long-term without fully understanding how it works in your body. In this episode we cover: The difference between storage vs. active vitamin D (and why you must always test both but your practitioner likely hasn't) The issues with vitamin D testing that scientists are hotly debating (can you even trust your lab result?) What is the optimal reference range for vitamin D? And why ranges are terribly inflated and many are not to be trusted. What really drives down vitamin D in the body and how to come at this from a root-cause perspective instead of drowning yourself in vitamin D supplements If you're thinking about taking D, already taking D, or have been told your vitamin D is "low" (it likely isn't) then this one is for you.   Mentioned in this episode:

    The Difference Between Coping and Emotional Capacity

    Have you ever felt like you have done everything "right" and you still hit a stress ceiling? You have gone to therapy, set boundaries, practiced self-care, learned regulation, and yet you still find yourself snapping, shutting down, or running on empty. This episode explores what it can look like to move beyond coping and into true emotional capacity. Not a life without stress, but a wider internal ability to meet life as it is, without collapsing into burnout or disconnection. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof (founder of BrainBased.com and the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification) and Jennifer Wallace (Neurosomatic Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Guide, founder of Sacred Synapse) are joined by RaQuel Hopkins, a therapist and certified coach known for her work on capacity and adult development. Together, they unpack the difference between resilience, distress tolerance, and capacity, why "regulation" can sometimes become suppression, and how relating to emotions as data can create more choice. They also explore boundaries through the lens of self-trust, and why honoring "I do not want to" can be a meaningful step toward recovery and growth.   Timestamps: 00:00 – Why "doing everything right" can still feel like a ceiling 06:30 – What capacity means (and why it is about who you become) 14:30 – Resilience vs distress tolerance vs capacity 23:30 – Emotional strength, fragility, and the regulation misconception 34:30 – Boundaries, self-trust, and choice vs depletion 46:30 – Protective emotions, curiosity, and integration 56:30 – Corporate environments, pressure, and being human at work 1:03:00 – Closing reflections and where to find RaQuel 1:05:30 – Listener invitation and next steps (trial + workshop) Key Takeaways: Capacity is not just "holding more." It can be about meeting life as it is and adapting without losing yourself. Regulation is not the same thing as calm. It is about modulation and appropriate responsiveness. Emotional strength includes feeling emotions without being defined by them. Emotions can be information, not directives. A "hard no" can sometimes be a signal of depletion, not clarity. Self-trust can reduce the need to announce boundaries. Protective patterns once helped you survive. Growth can start with curiosity rather than judgment.

    Perimenopause & Memory One of the most frustrating parts of perimenopause for me has been memory. I'll literally walk into a room and have no idea why I'm there. That's always happened to me to a certain degree — my brain moves fast, I think quickly, and that's something people either love or hate about me. But this feels different. This is a whole other level. Lately, it feels like I can't access old memories as easily. My long-term memory feels sketchy, and I don't know if or when that changes. I know a lot of women experience this, but it's still incredibly frustrating. Honestly, this might be the part of perimenopause that makes me feel the most insane — the memory issues and the brain fog. Those two things can really mess with you because they make you question yourself. And that's scary. There are times when I feel genuinely fearful about how out of it I feel. I just want to say this out loud: it's normal. But that doesn't mean it doesn't suck. When it comes to memory and brain fog, there are so many things we're told to do — omega-3s, B12, iron, hormones, estrogen, progesterone, supplements on supplements. At this point, I feel like I have supplement fatigue. I don't even know if that's a real term, but it feels real to me. I do know that some basics make a difference. Vitamin D helps. B12 shots help. Sublingual B12 helps. Liquid iron helps. Those foundational things absolutely matter. But beyond that, I honestly don't know. There are millions of supplements out there, and I question whether most of them truly make a meaningful difference for everything we're dealing with in perimenopause — or if it really comes down to hormone replacement therapy. I'd love to hear other women's experiences, because when I talk to women around my age — a little younger, a little older — very few are actually educated about perimenopause and everything that comes with it. And that's incredibly frustrating. So many symptoms get misinterpreted. Anxiety, for example. I have a close friend going through this right now with intense anxiety and what I call health anxiety. Women, in particular, experience this a lot. And so often, it's hormonal. When your hormones are out of balance, anxiety can come rushing in. When we don't talk about it, we assume, “It's just me,” or “I just have anxiety.” I was diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder at 18 — and it turned out to be my thyroid. Looking back on my life, every period where I experienced anxiety or panic attacks has always traced back to hormones being out of balance — thyroid hormones, estrogen, progesterone, iron levels. Low iron alone can send anxiety through the roof. Anxiety isn't a normal state. Neither is depression. Your body is communicating that something needs attention. For me, memory issues are worse at certain points in my cycle. That pattern is very clear now. And when women talk to me about anxiety that feels like it comes out of nowhere — especially when life is generally okay — I always say: get your hormones checked. Even if life isn't okay, still get them checked. As for supplements, I'm still undecided. The basics matter, but beyond that, I'm not convinced. I keep coming back to hormone replacement therapy as the thing that actually makes a tangible difference — maybe not for everyone, but for many of us. Perimenopause is not just hot flashes and mood swings. That's how it was explained to us, and it's wildly inaccurate. It's so much more than that. One example for me was joint pain. I struggled with really painful joints until my estrogen was adjusted. I'm currently at a pump and a half, which feels like my sweet spot. And the joint pain is gone. Completely. Zero. It takes time to dial things in, but I'm incredibly grateful. Because being in pain, forgetting things, feeling grumpy, and feeling sad all at once is just too much. I hope this helps. And if you forget to listen — well, I guess that's on theme.

    What if the places we have been hurt most, our relationships, can also become the places where we grow? In this episode, we explore relational healing as a powerful driver of post-traumatic growth. Together, we unpack why safe connection can feel threatening after complex trauma, how protective patterns like fight, freeze, and fawn are intelligent adaptations (not personal failures), and why "capacity" is less about willpower and more about what your nervous system can hold in real time. You will hear how micro-moments of self attunement can reduce hypervigilance, build trust from the inside out, and turn insight into embodied change. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof (founder of BrainBased.com and the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification) and Jennifer Wallace (Neurosomatic Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Guide) are joined by Piper Rose, a Neurosomatic Relationship Coach, founder of Shadowplay Coaching, and Director of Operations and Continuing Education at NSI. Piper shares an honest, grounded look at how co-regulation, repair, and "the burden of love" can become a training ground for deeper intimacy, resilience, and self compassion. Timestamps: 00:00 Intro: Why healing is relational, not just individual 03:30 Meet Piper Rose and what "Neurosomatic Relationship Coaching" means 08:20 Trauma, attachment wounding, and protective F responses in relationships 16:10 Reframing patterns as adaptations, not defects, and finding the "gifts" inside them 22:40 Neuroscience of connection: co-regulation, threat prediction, and updating the model 31:30 Why safe relationships can trigger fear, emotional flashbacks, and vulnerability 41:10 Self attunement, needs, and practicing repair in micro-moments 49:20 Community, nature, and animals as lower-risk pathways to relational practice 56:30 Closing reflections: building trust, capacity, and support beyond one relationship Key Takeaways: Relational patterns like fight, freeze, and fawn are often strategic survival adaptations, not signs you are "broken." Safe connection can feel dangerous when your nervous system is trained to predict harm in intimacy. "Capacity" is not just skill or knowledge. It is whether your body can access those skills under pressure. Self attunement, like responding to thirst, overwhelm, or startle, builds a foundation for secure internal attachment and clearer boundaries. You do not have to do relational healing alone. Support teams, community, nature, and animals can provide safe enough co-regulation while you build trust.

    This episode covers: • Colon Cancer in the Young and Why Risk May Start in Infancy New reporting highlights a troubling rise in early-onset colon cancer, including cases in highly fit endurance athletes. Researchers identified a distinct DNA damage signature linked to colibactin, a toxin produced by certain strains of E. coli, with evidence suggesting the damage may occur in infancy. Dave explains why fitness alone isn't protective, how early-life microbiome disruption and low-fiber modern diets stack long-term risk, and why earlier screening and gut-supportive habits like fiber, resistant starch, and circadian alignment matter more than ever. Source: https://www.businessinsider.com/why-so-many-young-people-getting-colon-cancer-answer-infancy-2025-12 • Kefir-Derived Bacteria, Immune Aging, and the Thymus A mouse study found that a kefir-derived bacterial strain, even when heat-inactivated, reduced age-related thymus shrinkage and lowered inflammatory signaling like IL-6. Dave breaks down why the thymus is central to immune aging, how chronic inflammation accelerates immune decline, and why your immune system responds to microbial signals, not just live probiotics. He explains how consistent fermented foods can act as immune training rather than a one-off supplement strategy. Source: https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/magazines/panache/popular-drink-can-reverse-aging-this-beverage-can-improve-immunity-and-help-achieve-longevity-finds-research/articleshow/126162250.cms • Why Vitamin D Doesn't Work Without Magnesium A human trial shows that magnesium status strongly determines how vitamin D behaves in the body. Magnesium is required for the enzymes that activate vitamin D, and deficiency can block its effects. Dave explains why some people see no improvement despite supplementing vitamin D, how magnesium restored low levels and normalized high ones, and why nutrient networks matter more than megadosing a single vitamin. Source: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/12/251228020010.htm • The Selenium Sweet Spot and Mortality Risk A large population analysis found a U-shaped relationship between dietary selenium intake and mortality. Low selenium increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, while higher intake offered no additional benefit and may increase risk. Dave explains selenium's role in antioxidant defense, thyroid function, and immunity, why deficiency and excess are both problems, and how to approach selenium as a precision nutrient rather than a blanket supplement. Source: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-025-29228-3 • Time-Restricted Eating: Why the Window Matters More Than the Meal A randomized controlled trial compared early time-restricted eating, late time-restricted eating, and unrestricted eating. Both time-restricted groups naturally ate fewer calories without dieting, mainly by reducing snacking, while the unrestricted group drifted upward. Dave explains why the real benefit isn't metabolic magic but behavioral control, how eating windows reduce decision fatigue and metabolic noise, and why consistency beats perfection when using time-restricted eating as a long-term tool.
