Unlocking Healing: Polyvagal Theory and Somatic Practices with Justin Sunseri

We have this biological wiring for seeking closeness and attachment and safety from bonds with others. And that's one of the main things that gets kind of tangled up with, like Cptsd or chronic trauma, where, if you have these repeated ongoing experiences that show you that people aren't safe but at the same time you're still as a mammal, you're always going to have those biological wirings to seek safety and connection.
Ever wondered how the body plays a role in healing from trauma? In this episode of 'Healing from the Inside', Kina Penelope sits down with Justin Sunseri to explore the transformative power of polyvagal theory and somatic healing. They dive into the intricacies of how our nervous system impacts our ability to feel safe and connected, challenging the limitations of traditional therapy models that often overlook the body's role in recovery.
Justin brings a fresh perspective on how understanding our biological wiring can help survivors of trauma move from defensive states to a place of calm and connection. The conversation covers essential tools like co-regulation and self-regulation, which can create reparative emotional experiences and aid in the journey towards healing. They also touch on the importance of validation and non-judgmental education to help survivors let go of self-blame and focus on the present moment.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of trauma recovery. Whether you're a therapist seeking new approaches or a survivor searching for hope, Kina and Justin offer insights that can truly make a difference. Tune in for an enlightening discussion that not only informs but also inspires.
