Are you stuck in a constant state of hypervigilance? Are you concerned about what it’s doing to your body?
Today, Steph & Craig are joined by Melissa Romano, founder of Reclaiming Healthy, an online initiative designed to help you reconnect with your body and find true wellness.
In this episode, Melissa shares her insights on the impact of trauma and how it can affect your relationship with yourself and your body. She discusses the importance of unlearning harmful patterns and beliefs, trusting your instincts and emotions, and embracing self-awareness and self-compassion.
Melissa opens up about her personal journey and struggles with healing from a lifetime of repressed trauma and how she moves through life today in a completely different way.
Melissa is a breath of fresh air and breaks down the somatic experience of healing in a way that will light up things inside of you. For example, how she managed to reprogram her brain to start seeing signs of safety instead of always searching for signs of danger.
If you’re struggling on your path right now, this ones for you.
