    Attachment, Relational Stress, and Rewiring Complex Trauma

    What happens in the brain when a stress response is activated ? How does developmental trauma shapes our nervous system and subconscious reactions as adults?   Today, we're answering those questions and diving deeper into how the brain develops through social interactions, why social connection is a survival need, and what happens in the body when we experience connection with other people.   Matt Bush is joining Jennifer and Elisabeth to discuss the impact of trauma on the brain’s functioning, and therefore, our relationships, expression, sense of safety, and overall health. They talk about what happens when you’re not primed for connection in childhood, how the brain is wired to be part of the social structure in relationships, what part of the brain guides us toward dysregulation and protective outputs, and lots more.   In this episode we delve into the intricate relationships between high ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) scores, developmental trauma, and their lifelong impacts on individuals' stress levels and physical health. The conversation highlights the critical role of early childhood experiences, particularly the bond with caregivers, in shaping one's ability to manage stress and form healthy relationships.   We know that connection is crucial to our survival as humans, but for those with complex trauma, even the healthiest relationships can trigger a stress response and lead to maladaptive behaviors. This episode provides a comprehensive look at how stress impacts our relationships and physical health, and highlights the importance of consistent nervous system training to rewire the brain’s response to stress and build resilience.   You’ll also learn why complex trauma is an attachment would, and most importantly, that change is possible and how you can get started NOW. Tune in for all this and more!   We discuss chronic inflammation and its connection to social threats and shame, noting that these emotional stressors can trigger physical responses.   Talking Points: Impact of high ACE scores and developmental trauma on stress levels and physical outcomes. Influence of early childhood experiences on the HPA axis and long-term stress responses. Role of attachment theory and the impact of caregiver availability. Relationship between social threats, shame, and inflammatory responses. Importance of training the nervous system through neurosomatic integration (NSI) tools. Personal narratives on managing complex PTSD and changing attachment patterns. Exploration of the OODA loop in processing and responding to environmental stimuli. Emphasis on the potential for neuroplasticity and intentional change in nervous system responses.   Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the next cohort enrolling now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com   Connect with Matt Bush: https://www.nextlevelneuro.com/ matt@nextlevelneuro.com   Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com   Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired   Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846   FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired   This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com   Trauma Rewired podcast  is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

    Neurodivergence, Early Childhood Trauma, and Brain Development

    In this episode of Trauma Rewired, hosts Elisabeth Kristof, Jennifer Wallace, and Matt Bush delve into the intricate relations between complex trauma, neurodivergence, and brain function dysregulation. The conversation highlights how gradual exposure to non-threatening stimuli can help manage threat responses, and the importance of achieving balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems for resilience. They discuss neurological pathways affected by trauma and neurodivergence, focusing on the interplay between creativity, logical processing, and emotional regulation. The hosts emphasize understanding oneself deeply, revealing personal strengths, and valuing unique sensitivities to foster self-compassion and improve coping mechanisms. Elisabeth Kristof underscores the vital role of play in activating joy and the significance of building a nurturing internal environment. She explains that while it's impossible to fully "rewire" oneself, there is potential for experiencing new ways of thriving through the nervous system. The episode also explores vertical integration, encompassing the brainstem, limbic system, and prefrontal cortex, discussing how disruptions lead to chronic stress and emotional reactivity. The hosts examine societal expectations and their impact on neurodivergent individuals, advocating for a shift towards recognizing and celebrating unique neurological differences.   Topics Discussed: Gradual exposure to non-threatening stimuli for managing threat responses. Dysregulation in brain function and its impact on behavior and diagnosis. Role of play in activating joy and fostering emotional health. Vertical integration and its necessity for maintaining presence and connection. Impact of early childhood trauma on nervous system programming.

    Trauma, Nervous System Health, and Attachment Shape Wellness

    Trauma isn’t just a single event—it’s the ongoing experience that unfolds afterward. Our access to resources, support, tools, and coping mechanisms greatly influences how our brain and nervous system are patterned in response to trauma, which in turn shapes our emotions and behaviors. By understanding these patterns as protective adaptations rather than flaws, we open the door to repatterning our nervous system and transforming our responses. In today’s episode, we revisit a powerful conversation between Elisabeth and Jennifer, who explore what happens in the brain and body following a traumatic event. They discuss how trauma imprints in the body, creating activation patterns, and how healing is possible by building the capacity to feel and engaging with community. We are highly impressionable beings—our experiences and perception of sensory inputs shape our reality. But this adaptability also makes healing possible. By repatterning neural pathways, reshaping nervous system responses, and shifting our perspective, we can build a life in which we respond consciously rather than react automatically. If this topic resonates with you, be sure to tune in and explore what it truly means to carry trauma in the body and how to heal. Don’t miss this enlightening episode!   Topics discussed in this episode: How trauma manifests in the body as illness and disease Bodily responses shaped by past trauma The role of co-regulation with a trusted, safe person How the brain constructs trauma experiences through sensory input Trauma’s impact on activation patterns and frontal lobe shutdown Chronic threat detection and its role in nervous system dysregulation Tools from NSI to improve sensory processing accuracy in the brain The significance of neuroplasticity in healing Relational healing and addressing attachment wounds Building the capacity to feel as a pathway to healing Recognizing the collective dimension of healing Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the next cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com   Book your NSI Discovery Call here:  https://calendly.com/traumarewired/nsi-discovery-call-with-jennifer   Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com   Contact us about private Rewire Neuro-Somatic Coaching: https://brainbased-wellness.com/rewire-private-neuro-somatic-coaching/   Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired   Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846   FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired   This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast  is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

    Sleep and Insomnia are Evidence of How Trauma and Attachment Impact the Nervous System

    In this episode, we delve into the profound connection between trauma, attachment wounds, and insomnia. We begin by discussing how secure attachments, particularly with family members like grandparents, can mitigate stress but their loss can trigger insomnia and other physical symptoms. Both hosts share personal anecdotes to highlight the pervasive impact of family disruptions and relational stressors on sleep patterns and mental health. The dialogue underscores how medical trauma exacerbates feelings of vulnerability and helplessness, often leading to severe insomnia. The hosts explore the complicated interplay between trauma-related HPA axis dysregulation and sleep cycles. Dysregulated cortisol levels, triggered by trauma, disrupt the natural circadian rhythm, leading to sleep issues such as frequent awakenings and trouble achieving deep sleep. Jennifer and Elisabeth emphasize that while general sleep hygiene recommendations—such as reducing screen time and exposure to natural light—are useful, they often fall short for trauma survivors. For this group, insomnia is connected more deeply to stress and attachment-related issues, necessitating specialized approaches to treatment. Throughout the discussion, the hosts provide insights into the physiological processes governing sleep, such as homeostatic sleep drive (Process S) and circadian rhythm (Process C). They offer practical advice like morning light exposure and winding down before bed. They also explain how REM and non-REM sleep stages contribute to emotional processing and memory consolidation, making sleep an essential component of recovery and mental health. The episode concludes with actionable tips for better sleep hygiene and stress management, acknowledging the intricate challenges faced by those dealing with complex PTSD and trauma-induced insomnia. Topics Discussed Secure Attachment and Stress : The impact of losing secure attachments, leading to stress and insomnia. Family Disruption : How significant family breakdowns and ongoing conflict impact mental health and sleep. HPA Axis Dysregulation : The role of trauma in disrupting the HPA axis and elevating cortisol levels, affecting sleep cycles. Medical Trauma Impact : The link between medical trauma, vulnerability, and insomnia. Trauma and Circadian Rhythm : How trauma-related dysregulation affects the balance between melatonin and cortisol. Sleep Hygiene Tips : Practical strategies for better sleep, such as exposure to natural light and reducing screen time. REM and Non-REM Sleep : The importance of these sleep stages for emotional processing and memory consolidation. Emotional Flashbacks : How nighttime triggers emotional flashbacks associated with past trauma, disrupting sleep.
