Healing Trauma from the Inside Out with Nataschaa Chatterton
It's almost like it's locked in that place. It's stuck in the same state that it was in in the time of trauma, but it didn't actually get to complete that energy.
What if your body holds the key to healing your deepest wounds? In this eye-opening episode of 'Change Truth', Carl Christensen sits down with Nataschaa Chatterton, a seasoned Trauma Therapist with expertise in Somatic Trauma Therapy, Reiki, Acupressure, Breathwork, Yoga, and Addictions Recovery. Nataschaa brings a wealth of knowledge to the table, sharing how trauma impacts the nervous system and leaves us with ingrained physical reactions that no longer serve us.
She dives into the two main approaches to healing trauma: working from the brain down to the body and from the body up to the brain. Her focus is on the latter, using somatic practices to help people break free from unhealthy patterns and complete their energy cycles. But it's not just about techniques and theories; Nataschaa shares personal stories, including her own journey through addiction and recovery.
