Your body is designed to operate in its best intelligence with the information that it has. Thankfully, as we give it different information, create different experiences for ourselves, we can change that and it can feel different. It can do different, but at this time, it's doing the best with what it has, the best with what we have given it.
Ever wondered how your body reacts to trauma on a cellular level? In this episode of 'The Biology of Trauma with Dr. Aimie', listeners are taken on a fascinating journey into the parasympathetic state, an often-overlooked aspect of our nervous system that plays a crucial role in trauma recovery. Dr. Aimie Apigian teams up with Jodi Cohen, an expert in essential oils and trauma healing, to break down the three states of the autonomic nervous system.
They shed light on the misunderstood freeze response and emphasize why recognizing these states is essential for effective healing. With practical advice on using essential oils, deep breathing, and intentional stillness, this episode offers valuable tools to help listeners navigate their trauma healing journey. Whether you're dealing with trauma yourself or working in a field that supports others, understanding the parasympathetic state could be the missing piece in your approach to recovery.
