The Complexity of Memory and Trauma

Explore the intricate world of memory and trauma and delve into how generational trauma impacts our nervous system, behavior, and even our genes. Discover the fascinating science behind neuropeptides, epigenetics, and how your body stores and processes traumatic memories. 

The hosts explore how generational trauma manifests through behavioral, nervous system, and epigenetic changes, and discuss how consistent, daily practices can aid in reshaping the brain and healing somatic experiences. They emphasize the importance of working with the nervous system, highlighting the availability of various healing modalities and practitioners.

Elisabeth and Jennifer  illuminate the interplay between mind, body, and soul, stressing how memories live in our bodies and influence various physiological functions, from heart rate to muscle tension. They delve into the intricacies of how early experiences, ingrained somatic memories, and emotional landscapes affect our present health and relationships.

This episode underscores the capacity to rewire the nervous system and the empowerment that comes from understanding and transforming past traumas.
