Trauma Rewired

From last week's episode on perfectionism to topics like CPTSD elements or intuition, Trauma Rewired has discussed numerous issues that result from trauma. You've heard a lot about the nervous system and how important it is to regulate it, but how exactly do you do that? During this first installment of a three-part series on core beliefs, you'll learn how to deconstruct the beliefs that drive your harmful behaviors and create a loop of dysregulation. For example, Elisabeth shares her holiday-related anxiety that is leading to trauma responses like perfectionism; and Jennifer helps her trace back these beliefs and rewire the nervous system — just like they would any client. In the spirit of the holiday season, Jennifer and Elisabeth will also be sharing two neuro drills that can bring you to a feeling of safety when in a state of high stress and dysregulation. This will enable you to challenge the beliefs that have a negative impact on your health and healing. Change becomes possible when your brain and nervous system are on the same page, and listening to this episode will help get you there! Topics discussed in this episode: How core beliefs can develop in childhood Changing limiting beliefs from a neurosomatic perspective An example of tracing back a belief Driving behaviors of limited beliefs How the body feels accepting limiting beliefs vs. the opposite belief Taking action and changing behavior What happens after new beliefs are achieved?

Our society rewards those who work hard, appear to never make mistakes, and seem to have everything under control. We've collectively decided on what perfect looks like and attributed perfectionism with the ideal person. What if we told you that perfectionism is actually a protective measure used to prevent oneself from feelings of rejection, abandonment, and worthlessness? These words don't quite scream "perfect" do they? Trauma Rewired hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth have touched upon this trauma response before, but today's episode is a deep dive into how it can develop and lead to harmful avoidance behaviors. They deconstruct perfectionism, including defining the three types of perfectionism and how it interplays with CPTSD elements like the inner critic. You'll learn the many health consequences that the chronic stress of perfectionism can cause, and how to distinguish excellence from perfectionism. Jennifer and Elisabeth also share their experience with perfectionism, and how it can push us into burnout or freeze states. Perfectionism is not an attainable goal, which makes it debilitating and a hindrance to healing trauma. To take the first step towards moving out of perfectionism, tune in! Topics discussed in this episode: Defining the 3 types of perfectionism Perfectionism as a trauma response Jennifer's example of setting yourself up for failure The effects of perfectionism on our health Maladaptive coping mechanisms for perfectionism How to recognize perfectionist behaviors and thinking Jennifer on taking action against her perfectionism Trauma healing, neurosomatic intelligence, and integration Limiting beliefs push the loop of perfectionism Elisabeth on the importance on self-regulation tools in her life How perfectionism negatively affects organizations and employees Steps Elisabeth has taken to heal her perfectionism and workaholism Learn more about Elisabeth Kristof and her company, Brain-Based Wellness, here: https://brainbased-wellness.com/about/ Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! www.traumarewired.com 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!

The many gifts received through ceremony with ayahuasca from start to finish cannot be measured within the confines of the days in a retreat. The potential reveals itself during ceremony, but the gifts are found once you're released into the world again, armed with awareness. However, potential is just that. How do you take that potential and transform it into healing? Integration after ceremony is arguably the most crucial part of the whole process, because this is where you train your body to receive and transmute the heavy dysregulated energy you've been carrying in your nervous system your entire life, into regulation. Our host, Jennifer Wallace, recognized this after an extremely eye opening ceremony, that was in fact dysregulating in nature, so she knew there was a lot of work to be done post ceremony. Integrating the new information into her life in order for her body to feel safe was one of the greatest gifts she gave to herself, because now it has helped her create the big life she knew she could live. Jennifer is able to live fully expressed, and if she isn't, she has the tools to bring her back to that aligned place.Jennifer has learned the tools to integrate the lessons that come up during plant medicine ceremonies and she wants to share her methods with you. Tune in to hear the importance of integration and how Jennifer was able to achieve it by healing her nervous system.

Dissociation is more common than you think and exists on a spectrum, impacting personal experiences and healing. The hosts discuss its protective role during trauma and stress, revealing how it can distort memory and emotional processing. They delve into how dissociation affects body perception, complicating issues like body dysmorphia. The conversation also emphasizes the importance of reconnecting with emotions and the body, exploring tools like vagus nerve training. Finally, societal pressures and their impact on self-perception are examined, advocating for self-acceptance and emotional safety.

Trauma Rewired has addressed many issues that arise when trauma is stored in the body for years, decades, or even a lifetime. One of them is that this type of chronic stress can lead to autoimmune diseases, heart disease and more, as well as intensify pain experienced from these serious health issues. A dysregulated nervous system resulting from trauma leads to emotional and physical pain, but how do you heal yourself from trauma, while also fighting for your physical health? Tune in to hear how both plant medicine and Western treatments can work together to heal the different facets of your health. It's been two years since Anna Gieselman was on the podcast to speak about her lupus journey, an autoimmune disease, but she's back today to update us!
