Welcome to The Underlying Answers Podcast—a deep exploration into the intelligence of the human body, the hidden patterns shaping our lives, and what it truly means to heal. I believe the next era of healing is reconnection—reconnection to our bodies, to ourselves, and to a more complete understanding of what it means to be human. One where science, energy, consciousness, lived experience, and faith inform one another instead of competing for the right answer. Each episode explores how the body, nervous system, emotions, behaviors, relationships, beliefs, and life experiences are deeply interconnected. Through the lens of the Six Frequencies of Human Regulation™—spiritual, energetic, mental, emotional, physical, and behavioral—we uncover how the body adapts for survival, stores life experiences, and continually communicates through symptoms, sensations, emotions, and behavior. Hosted by Cindy Costley, creator of EBDT™ (Electromagnetic Body Desensitization Technique), these conversations explore the deeper intelligence that connects healing, regulation, adaptation, and transformation through the hidden patterns shaping the human experience. Some conversations are deeply personal. Others are expansive, intuitive, philosophical, or unexpectedly confronting. Together with practitioners, researchers, authors, survivors, and thought leaders, we create space for deeper exploration, unplanned insight, and the kinds of conversations that emerge when people are willing to ask better questions about healing, consciousness, and what it truly means to restore human health and potential. Whether you're navigating your own healing journey, a practitioner expanding the way you understand the body, or someone who simply senses there is more to healing than we've been taught, this podcast invites you into a different kind of conversation—one rooted in curiosity, humility, and the belief that some of our greatest breakthroughs happen when we reconnect what has been separated. Let's Restore the Design together.

    Healing Through the Eyes of a Neuroscientist: Where Science, Spirituality, and Consciousness Meet

    Healing Through the Eyes of a Neuroscientist: Where Science, Spirituality, and Consciousness Meet What if healing isn't about choosing between science and spirituality—but discovering how they were always meant to work together? In this episode of The Underlying Answers Podcast, Cindy sits down with neuroscientist Dr. Cindy Sholes for an open and thought-provoking conversation that challenges the traditional boundaries of healing. Together, they explore how neuroscience, consciousness, spirituality, and integrative healing practices each contribute valuable pieces to understanding the human experience. Rather than viewing Western medicine, Eastern practices, and consciousness as competing approaches, they discuss how fear, personal experiences, and deeply held beliefs can unknowingly create barriers that prevent us from embracing a more complete model of healing. The conversation also explores why lasting healing often requires looking beyond symptoms to identify the originating events, patterns, and beliefs that continue to shape our health. By understanding what lies beneath the surface, we can begin moving from simply managing symptoms to addressing the deeper causes that influence how we think, feel, and function. Whether you're grounded in science, drawn to spirituality, or simply curious about how these worlds can complement one another, this episode offers an invitation to rethink what's possible when we stop asking which approach is right—and begin asking how they can work together. In this episode, we discuss: • Why science and spirituality don't have to exist on opposite sides of healing • The role of consciousness in creating lasting transformation • Finding the originating event instead of chasing symptoms • How beliefs can become protective patterns that quietly keep us stuck • Fear as a barrier to receiving healing from unexpected places • Why integrating Western medicine, Eastern practices, and consciousness creates a more complete healing model • Learning to trust the wisdom and intelligence of the body To learn more about Dr. Cindy Sholes and her work, visit: Emotions Matter.

    When the Scream Wants to Come Out: Practical Self-Care for Real Life

    What does self-care actually look like when you're overwhelmed, exhausted, caring for others, and barely making it through the day? In this episode, Cindy sits down with Rebe Goebel, trauma-informed somatic healer, author, advocate, and mother of two neurodivergent teens, for a refreshingly honest conversation about what it means to care for yourself when life doesn't slow down. Together, they explore the human side of stress, caregiving, nervous system regulation, and the moments when emotions feel so intense that "the scream wants to come out of your mouth." Rather than focusing on self-care as something that only happens on vacation, at a spa, or during a retreat, Rebe shares practical strategies that can be integrated into everyday life—even in the middle of chaos. Throughout the conversation, Rebe offers simple yet powerful tools for staying present, habit-stacking supportive practices, and learning to prioritize your own well-being while continuing to show up for the people who depend on you. This episode is a reminder that healing doesn't always happen in grand gestures. Sometimes it begins with a single pause, a deeper breath, or a moment of choosing yourself in the middle of a difficult day. In this episode, we discuss: • Practical self-care for real life—not ideal life • Nervous system regulation during stressful moments • Why pauses are more powerful than most people realize • Habit stacking and creating sustainable, supportive practices • Caregiving without completely losing yourself • Responding instead of reacting during difficult moments • The relationship between presence, resilience, and healing Connect with Rebe Goebel: www.rebegoebel.com Rebe Goebel | Author (@rebegoebel) • Instagram profile Join our free community, Restore the Design, where we explore the deeper connections between the body, nervous system, healing, and what it means to live in alignment with how we were designed to function.

  3. From Pressure to Partnership with Your Body

    From Pressure to Partnership with Your Body

    So many women have been taught to approach health, healing, and body change through pressure, restriction, self-criticism, and force — believing that if they could just try harder, control themselves more, or finally “fix” themselves, lasting change would come. But what if that pressure is actually part of what keeps people stuck? In this episode of The Underlying Answers Podcast, Cindy sits down with Mindset & Embodiment Coach Jami Fassett to explore the deeper patterns behind nervous system safety, self-trust, body image, emotional healing, and sustainable transformation. After spending 27 years trapped in the all-or-nothing dieting cycle, Jami experienced a radical shift that changed everything: learning to lead with joy, self-partnership, and safety instead of pressure and punishment. Now, after maintaining a 70-pound weight loss for eight years, she helps women create supportive, sustainable change without fighting themselves in the process. Together, Cindy and Jami explore: • Why pressure-driven healing often backfires • The nervous system’s role in lasting change • What self-criticism does to the body over time • Why joy and safety matter in the healing process • Rebuilding trust with the body after years of control and criticism • The difference between forcing change and supporting transformation This conversation is a powerful reminder that healing may not come from learning how to push harder — but from finally learning how to work with yourself instead of against yourself.

    Your Biology Is Personal: Rethinking Wellness, Stress & Healing

    In this episode of The Underlying Answers Podcast, Cindy Costley sits down with Coach Colt from Reclaim Wellness for a conversation exploring the growing disconnect between modern wellness culture and the individuality of the human body. Together, they discuss why one-size-fits-all approaches to health often leave people feeling frustrated, exhausted, and disconnected from themselves — and what begins to change when we start recognizing that our biology, stress responses, energy, and healing patterns are deeply personal. This conversation explores: Personalized wellness and genetic individuality Stress and its impact on the body The relationship between body awareness and healing Why many people feel like they are “failing” wellness plans Rebuilding trust with the body instead of working against it The deeper intelligence behind symptoms, fatigue, and dysregulation This episode invites listeners into a broader conversation about learning to understand the body as an intelligent, responsive system — not a problem to fight against. Because your body isn’t random. It’s patterned. Want to continue the conversation beyond the podcast?

    What If Your Symptoms Are Trying to Tell You Something?

    In this episode of The Underlying Answers Podcast, Cindy Costley introduces a new way of looking at symptoms—one that shifts from trying to fix the body to beginning to understand it. Most people have been taught to suppress, manage, or push through what they feel. But what if your body isn’t malfunctioning… what if it’s responding? Cindy shares a simple, grounded overview of how stress and past experiences can influence the body—impacting the nervous system, immune response, and overall regulation—and how those responses can show up physically over time. More importantly, she introduces the first step in reconnecting with your body: awareness. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why symptoms may not mean what you think they do How stress and past experiences can influence physical responses What it means to begin seeing your body as a messenger A simple way to start building awareness through a “Purposeful Pause.” If you’ve ever felt frustrated, confused, or disconnected from your body, this episode will help you take the first step toward understanding what it may be trying to tell you. Because your body isn’t working against you. It’s communicating. And when you begin to listen… Everything can start to make sense. It’s time to restore the design.

    I Was "Allergic to the World"

    In this episode of The Underlying Answers Podcast, Cindy Costley shares her personal journey of developing severe, life-altering reactions at the age of 15—and how those patterns continued to expand over time. What began as visible rashes and reactions to foods, environments, medications, and materials slowly progressed into a body that felt like it was reacting to everything. After years of searching for answers, pushing through life’s challenges, and navigating additional stressors—including loss and single motherhood—Cindy reached a breaking point at age 48 when her body could no longer keep up. Following a severe anaphylactic reaction and a rapid decline in her health, she was faced with a perspective that changed everything: Her symptoms were not random—they were connected to unresolved experiences her body had been holding all along. In this episode, you’ll learn: How physical symptoms can develop and expand over time Why your body may be responding to more than just your current environment The connection between stored stress, past experiences, and physical reactions What it means to begin seeing your body as a messenger instead of the problem If you’ve ever felt like your body is unpredictable, limiting your life, or not making sense—this episode will help you begin to see your symptoms through a different lens. Because your body isn’t working against you. It’s responding. And when you begin to understand why… Everything can start to change. It’s time to restore the design.

And more importantly… it was communicating. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why your body may not be “malfunctioning” the way you think How symptoms can be signals, not just problems What it means to begin listening to your body in a new way Why healing may not be about fixing—but about understanding If you’ve ever felt confused by your symptoms or stuck searching for answers, this episode will shift how you see your body—and where you begin looking for answers.
