In the latest podcast episode of the MindHealth360 Show, Dr. Aimie Apigian delves into the neurobiology of trauma and how it impacts our mental and physical health. As an MD with a background in biochemistry, public health and functional medicine, Dr. Apigian bridges the gap between the biochemical and the psychological aspects of trauma. She explains how life experiences are stored in the body and how trauma can lead to nervous system dysregulation, contributing to various mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and insomnia.

Aimie Apigian, MD MS MPH is a leading medical expert on how life experiences get stored in the body and on accelerating the trauma healing journey through her signature model and methodology, The Biology of Trauma®, based on her personal health and trauma journey.

In this episode, learn about:

The interconnectedness of the nervous system and the immune system and the connection of the autonomic and central nervous systems.
How dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system drives mental and physical health issues.
How one individual neuron cell is getting signals, and its receptors, and its mitochondria.
The role of our biochemistry in understanding trauma and nervous system dysregulation.
How chronic stress and trauma can lead to cellular dysregulation and chronic symptoms.
Practical approaches to restoring the body's health through integrative trauma therapy.
The importance of creating micro-moments of safety to support the healing process.

We are so excited to announce that Dr. Apigian will be one of our keynote speakers at the IMMH 2024 Conference in Washington DC from 10-13 October.
