In this episode, Dr. Aimie walks us through why everything we think we know about trauma is wrong!

Her incredible journey that led her to eventually create The Biology of Trauma ™️ may require tissues!

She helps us shift perspective on the historically faulty trauma healing approaches and right away tells us some ideas we may have had wrong.

Time does not heal!
Love does not heal!
Trauma is not about events!

We have had it all wrong!

The Biology of Trauma™️
Instability and insecurity in early childhood leads to nervous system dysregulation.
This subconscious/unconscious process occurs when we feel unsafe and leads us to become someone other than we really are.

The freeze response aka overwhelm
Autoimmunity
Chronic Pain
Chronic Fatigue
Fibromyalgia
and more are expressions of the freeze response

Supporting your system when you're in the freeze response is possible, but typical stress management may flare your symptoms.

LISTEN TO YOUR BODY

Trauma is stored in your body!
