The amount of time and patience it takes to heal the body cannot be understated. Pushing our own personal boundaries to create a larger capacity to be witnessed and seen, can feel counterintuitive at times. However, if we can dig deep to understand how the nervous system attempts to protect us, even when it doesn’t feel like it, we can come to a place of deep compassion for ourselves and others to allow our bodies to feel safe again.   In today’s episode, our hosts Elisabeth and Jennifer sit down with somatic practitioner, podcast host, and founder of Holistic Life Navigation, Luis Mojica, to discuss what it means to heal the body to live authentically rather than in a trauma response. In this conversation, our hosts and Luis unravel the complexities of somatic healing and how inflammation shows up in the body as a protective response. They also discuss how shame is actually stress and how that relates to our health, even in the most “optimal” health conditions, and how boundaries are the key to creating more connection with the self and others, and much more.    Healing is not linear, sometimes it feels as if things are getting worse before they get better, however when we are trying to create safety in the body after years of dissociation, or being in our F responses, it takes consistent effort along with a healthy dose of faith and hope that things can and will become easier the more we believe that healing is possible.   Join us to explore these topics and much more!    Topics discussed in this episode: Understanding your capacity in somatic healing Why embodiment does not mean peace Emotional neglect associated with childhood body boundary violation How trauma states cause inflammation in the body Inflammation is the body protecting itself The connection between somatics and nutrition Inflammatory response from prolonged stress from shame The deep healing that comes from being witnessed and witnessing others Fawning vs. Boundaries Supporting constriction in somatic healing Patience that is required in healing the body Connect with Luis Mojica by visiting the Holistic Life Navigation website here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/   Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: 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 Trauma Rewired podcast  is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

  • We are so excited to welcome back Luis Mojica, an incredible somatic practitioner, podcast host and founder of Holistic life navigation.

  • We first spoke with him about Fawn and sexual fawn, and today we are diving into deep waters again, exploring our relationship to trauma, links between trauma and autoimmune, shame response and boundaries, and so much more.

  • This episode, we're going a little bit deeper into some of our own experiences.

  • We will discuss early childhood sexual abuse, not in detail, but it will be mentioned.

  • You are the expert of your own nervous system.

  • If this feels unsupportive for your growth, out of sync with your capacity today, feel free to skip this one and we will catch you next week.

  • Welcome to Trauma Rewired, the podcast that teaches you about your nervous system, how trauma lives in the body, and what you can do to heal.

  • I'm your co host, Jennifer Wallace, a neurosomatic psychedelic preparation and integration guide.

  • And I'm also an educator for the neurosomatic intelligence coaching certification.

  • And I'm your co host, Elizabeth Christoph, founder of Brainbase.com, an online community where we get together to use applied neurology and somatics for nervous system health, behavior change and resilience.

  • And I'm also the founder of the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching certification course.

  • One of the first things that I wanted us to talk about a little bit, Washington just kind of our relationship to trauma, and we all are obviously people that are like in the work and the listeners are often in the work.

  • And we've been exploring that.

  • I've seen you exploring a lot in your social and in the newsletters that I read from you.

  • It's sort of this minimum effective dose with the healing work and not necessarily always feeling like we have to go so far deep into the experience to get the benefits of, of some of that healing.

  • In one of your, I think it was a recent newsletter, you said, or maybe it was a social post.

  • PTSD is the experience of the body remembering and expecting threat.

  • Focusing on my past traumas only worsened symptoms.

  • Feeling where I was now completely transformed, feeling where I was now completely transformed my body and mind.

  • And so that kind of relationship between, yes, we need to process some, but also there's this nuance of also allowing ourselves to be present and start to move beyond that.
