Embodiment has many different meanings, but to be embodied from a neurosomatic intelligence perspective relates to the integration of the body, mind and spirit. It means you are aware of the connection between your body and its internal sensations, your emotions, and your behaviors.   Sharing her journey to embodiment and how she uses it in her work as a mindset coach is Tracy Litt, speaker and founder of The Litt Factor. Tracy is also a bestselling author and her new book, “Expander: For Trailblazing Women Building a New World,” outlines the damaging paradigms that hold us back and what we can do to replace them.   In this episode, Tracy helps us look at embodiment through the lens of neurosomatic intelligence, including how it impacts our relationships, career, and health. You’ll learn more about dissociation, what keeps us from feeling and being in our bodies, and how emotional expression will transform your life.   There is a natural fear to change and embodiment, but you have to remember that YOU are the creator of your own life. Tune in to find out how to start healing through nervous system work!   Topics discussed in this episode:   What embodiment truly means Embodiment as necessary for change Our personal paths to embodiment The importance of slowing down What disconnects women to their bodies The freedom of emotional expression Training your nervous system to safely process emotions How Tracy uses NSI tools to help clients Tracy’s new book, Expander What Tracy took away from the NSI Certification course   Learn more about Tracy Litt and her company, The Litt Factor! www.thelittfactor.com   Read Tracy’s FREE eBook, Expander: For Trailblazing Women Building a New World! https://www.theexpanderbook.com/ Want to learn more about neurosomatic intelligence, and how it can help you and your clients?  https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com/?utm_medium=aff-traumarewired&utm_content&utm_source   Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer: https://www.rewiretrial.com  Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846   FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired     This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com

That’s why we start off this episode with a definition by somatic practitioner, Prentis Hemphill: “Boundaries are the distance at which I can love you and me simultaneously.” Joining hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth for a second time is Margy Feldhuhn, CEO of Interview Connections and neurosomatic intelligence coach. They’ll explore the role of boundaries in our lives, including how they open the door for authentic self-expression and deeper relationships.    You’ll also learn more about codependency, fawn response, the neuroscience of emotions, how boundaries cause disease, and the connection between attachment and the ability to set and respect boundaries.   Tune in as we dive deeper into boundaries, and find out how you can use NSI tools to feel safe enough to discover and express your boundaries!   Topics discussed in this episode:   Why boundaries are so important Boundaries and our need for connection versus autonomy How the 3 F’s lead to self-abandonment and lack of boundaries Self-expression and authenticity What leads to codependency Margy’s experience with quiet manipulation Cultural body boundary violations The neuroscience of emotions and emotional processing Respecting other people’s boundaries The impact of emotional neglect on our ability to set/receive boundaries How boundaries affect our emotional and physical healthy Using neurosomatic tools to move stress through the body   Get more information on Margy Feldhoun’s company, Interview Connections, here: https://interviewconnections.com   Connect with Margy:  https://www.instagram.com/heymargy/ https://www.tiktok.com/@heymargy   Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer: https://www.rewiretrial.com Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program here: https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com/?utm_medium=aff-traumarewired&utm_content&utm_source   Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired   Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 Head to https://calendly.com/traumarewired/consultation for a consultation to identify trauma responses in your own life and learn how to train your nervous system to move out of behaviors that aren’t serving you!   FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com  

Believe it or not, the brain and nervous system process social threat and physical threat the same way, making them equally as harmful to our health. That means that the cultural beliefs that shape our society are causing real trauma and dysregulating our nervous systems.   Today, Jennifer and Elisabeth are talking to Christy Chung, a certified NSI practitioner, advocate and healer, on this episode centered around culture, community, and the nervous system. They discuss how social stressors (such as gender, sexual orientation, race, socioeconomic status, etc.) can cause unsafe relationships with people and society, and the NSI tools that have helped Christy in her racial equity work, as well as on a personal level as a queer, Asian woman.   Christy also sheds light on the impact that long-term social threat, especially racism, has on the health of those affected. Plus,you’ll  learn a few interesting facts you might not know — like how culture has shaped our anatomy and biased our brains!   This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to find out how they can not only support their own nervous system and stay healthy, but change the harmful system of our society. Tune in now!   Topics discussed in this episode:   Christy’s businesses and activist work Unsafe relationships with people, society, and culture Dealing with conflict and repair work with NSI The relationship between social stress and attachment Minority stress theory and social safety theory The impact of chronic stress on the body from an NSI perspective Examples of how culture shapes brain function How Christy uses NSI tools in her work and personal life Making an impact and sacred responsibility   Resources mentioned in this episode: Sonya Renee Taylor Gabor Maté “The neurobiology of social stress resulting from Racism: Implications for pain disparities among racialized minorities” by Joanna M.
