Both big and little traumas that are left unresolved can have a huge impact on what is going on in your life today. By doing the emotional work and becoming a master at navigating your emotions, you will see major improvements in your health and your life.
 
Learning About Trauma With Dr. Elena Villanueva
Dr. Elena Villanueva is an expert in evidence-based approaches for finding and treating the underlying causes of chronic illness and brain-related conditions. Using the most advanced approaches in epigenetics and biohacking, Dr. V’s approach incorporates the merging of science and spirituality and the integration of the mind/body/spirit for the healing and optimization of the human body and mind. Her new 5 Part Series Mental Health Master Class is a 101 introduction to trauma and how it could be affecting your health.
 
How Trauma Impacts Our Health
One of the biggest root causes of hormone issues is trauma and chronic stress. It can impact your energy, sleep, mood, metabolism, reproductive system, and more. Unresolved trauma can show up in our relationships, our ability to communicate, and our ability to handle our emotions. Trauma could be the underlying cause that is making you sick or keeping you from healing. Unresolved trauma literally changes our biology and physiology and can even be passed down through genetics and epigenetics. This is why it is so important to learn how to navigate our emotions for our physical and mental health.
 
What to Do When You Feel Triggered
If you have been feeling triggered lately, you are not alone. But the good news is that triggers are really just a warning sign from your body. If you are able to listen to your body and use the techniques Dr. V shares in this episode, you can go from being the victim to the victor. 
You have the power to master your emotions and work through your trauma and create a new reality with your health and everything in your life.
