The Importance of Emotional Processing and Regulation - DENT Model Trauma
Emotional processing is essential for humans, but our society doesn't value or provide time for it. This is why when you finally have some space, like on a vacation perhaps, you may get hit with a trauma response seemingly out of nowhere. Just like it did for me on my recent trip to Paris. I’m not just talking about the ones we all know, fight, flight, and freeze. There are three more “F”s that belong to that system! Today I want to share with you the DENT(Dynamic Experiential Narrative Theory) model of trauma.
Let’s discuss:
🔹Your body’s different responses to trauma, stress, and anxiety, including flight, fight, freeze, fawn, flood, and fatigue.
🔹How somatic or embodied yoga practices can be helpful for emotional processing and regulation.
🔹Why listening to your body and practicing self-care is crucial for maintaining balance and well-being.

Less Is More - How To Honor Yourself & Your Students with Elena Brower
Today, I interview one of my biggest mentors, Elena Brower. I ask her about the tension many of us feel as yoga teachers: How do we honor our own personal practice (which may be morphing away from the style of yoga we’re known for), while still meeting our students' where they are? How do we not feel pigeon-holed by a certain technique or style? And trust our own voice? Listen in as we discuss:
🔹 How Elena’s teaching reached me in the most unexpected of places, changing the trajectory of my life and career
🔹 Where yoga and buddhism differ, overlap and compliment one another
🔹Workaholism and how to craft your time to honor your own needs
We also discuss our favorite books, and ways to open up space for creativity in your life. Thank you, Elena, for your energy in this conversation.
GUEST EXPERT: Elena Brower | https://elenabrower.com/
Mother, mentor, poet, artist, volunteer, bestselling author and host of the Practice You Podcast, Elena Brower has taught yoga and meditation since 1999. Her first book, Art of Attention, has been translated into seven languages; her second, Practice You, is a bestseller. Elena's first collection of poetry, Softening Time, was released in May 2023.

Customer Reviews
Wow!
Love the Uplifted Podcast! I’m starting from the beginning and learning soooo much! Brett has so much knowledge to share herself and I am loving all of the different guests she has on, I listen everyday and have not been disappointed!!
Brett Larkin’s podcasts inspire me to take action
Brett Larkin’s Uplifted Podcast inspires me to take more action and risks, to put a bad video or blogpost out there just to confront my own perfectionist tendencies. Brett’s guests and topics introduce me to new ways of seeing the world; The power of archetypes, the Psychic Teachers. I am always looking forward to the next episode. The podcast never disappoints and always inspires me.
How to apply yoga in every day life
I love this podcast, especially when Brett asks about what their daily morning routine looks like. It was on her podcast that I heard a guest say she meditated in her bed every morning first thing and that was a game changer for me and i haven’t missed a morning meditation since implementing that into my routine.
