The Dysregulated Nervous System—Why Stay Stuck When You Can Heal?
The Dysregulated Nervous System—Why Stay Stuck When You Can Heal?
Mindbody Wellness Clarity Tips
Dear Awesome Woman,
Trauma healing is possible. And when I refer to trauma, I’m speaking about all types of trauma—from being yelled at home on a regular basis, to suffering humiliation in a classroom situation at school, to being bullied, or worse.
For example, being yelled at as a child in school or at home in unpredictable ways causes the nervous system to become dysregulated. Those traumatic experiences stay stuck in the body because at the time of their happening, there was a stress response activated in the body. The heart rate sped up, the muscle tone increased and the body was signaled to prepare for fight and flight.
But what happens to most of us as children in these situations? We freeze.
As children, we can’t run—there is no where to go.
As children, we can’t fight back—we are too afraid of angering the authority figure even more.
The body didn’t complete the action it so desperately wanted to take in those terrifying, humiliating experiences. We just felt so small and powerless.
The good news is that as adults, our bodies can heal. Neural pathways can shift—the brain is flexible. We can unfreeze from those traumatic experiences. As spiritual speaker Gedale Fenster says, “Wisdom is memories without emotion.” The somatic/mindbody healing work I do with clients gives their bodies the opportunity to release the stuck energy of the past and healing occurs. Their systems are rejuvenated and they can move on instead of staying frozen in time, with traumatic events running the show. The ruminating ceases, and “aha” moments refresh and soothe. This is a tremendous blessing because who wants to stay frozen when you can heal?

“Miriam’s support has been nothing short of a blessing. She guided me through an intensely stressful period of my life with laser focus and crystal clarity. I’m thankful to expand my team of angels and look forward to continuing to evolve with her!” — LauraLee, Boulder
Exciting news to share! My memoir, God Said What?! #MyOrthodoxLife is out on Kindle and print! I had to go through many “Rings of Fire” during the eight year long journey of writing it, editing it, designing it and publishing it. What a trip! But a worthwhile one indeed to share this tale of love, faith, and Kabbalistic mystical happenings. Enjoy!
“I picked this book up on the recommendation from a friend and once I started reading, I couldn’t put it down. Miriam’s memoir of her journey to find faith in God’s love and the wisdom of the Torah is set to the backdrop of connecting to romantic love. The way she wrote about her struggles to find and accept faith, it felt as if she was pulling me right along with her and I was somehow blessed with a piece of her hard earned wisdom. While I am not of Jewish faith, I felt deeply connected to what she shared. And in the final chapter, her call for everyone of all faiths to do what we can to allow love to transform the world into a place of peace. It is just the salve I feel the world needs right now for deep healing.” – Sherrie Papa
