What happens when you combine groundbreaking neuroscience with practical trauma therapy? In this episode of 'The Biology of Trauma', Dr. Aimie sits down with Dr. Stephen Porges, the brilliant mind behind the polyvagal theory, to discuss how our nervous system holds the key to healing. This conversation dives deep into how attachment, freeze responses, and functional diseases are all connected through the lens of polyvagal theory. Dr.
Porges shares his expertise on how creating new, safe experiences can dramatically improve both physical health and emotional well-being. They explore how our bodies react to trauma on a cellular level and why understanding these reactions is crucial for recovery. Dr. Aimie also highlights her 21-day journey into the nervous system, offering listeners a hands-on approach to better understand their physiological responses.
