When that safety, that felt sense of safety is there, we will be able to access the words and we don't need to prepare for the interviews as much.
I think that's really powerful regarding the connection between the vocal cords and the diaphragm and the pelvic floor.
You know, I love to bring Mama Vegas into the conversation, and that's because it literally connects our throats and our diaphragms and of course, our whole torso down to our pelvic floor.
And anytime we make any kind of noise, any sustainable, I should say in particular, like toning or humming or singing, we're vibrating the entirety of the vagus nerve.
And that to me, is what allows us to be able to move flexibly back and forth between those states of survival and then those states of collapse and then also being in a more regulated state.
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, Elizabeth Christof, founder of Brainbase.com comma, an online community where we train the nervous system daily for resilience, capacity, and real behavior change.
And I'm also the founder of Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification, an ICF accredited course for therapists, practitioners, coaches to bring change from the level of Narva system.
I'm your co host, Jennifer Wallace, a neurosomatic practitioner that supports women in leading their truest lives by bridging the worlds of nervous system health and plant medicine spaces.
I'm also an NSI educator, and I'm so excited for this next cohort that's enrolling in the spring.
Having neurosomatic intelligence means that we understand that everything we do impacts our nervous systems, including our relationships.
If you want to experience deeper, more meaningful connections to ourselves and to others, including emotionally, we have to learn to work with our nervous systems.
The next round of NSI is enrolling now@neurosomaticintelligence.com.
dot hey everyone.
I am really excited to chat today because actually on my own healing journey, I'm at a place where I'm discovering that whole new, deeper level of working somatically with my voice and vocal cords and throat.
And it has had such an impact on the patterns held in my body of moving into fruits, freeze, bracing in the diaphragm, my pelvic floor.
And it's also making a huge impact on my behavior, my ability to more effortlessly express myself or set boundaries or communicate with clarity and ease.
And that's without even cognitively working on any of this, it's by working with my nervous system and my body.
And today we are joined by Elise Bessler, who is an expert in activating and liberating the voice.
She's a singer songwriter herself, voice and communication coach, and an NSI certified practitioner.
