In this episode, we speak with Dr. David Berceli, a renowned expert in trauma intervention and conflict resolution, and the creator of Tension and Trauma Release Exercises (TRE). Dr. Berceli shares his insights on how stress can impact the body, and how this is especially relevant for those struggling with infertility.

He explains that the trauma from a stressful event is not from the event itself, but rather from the sense of losing safety and connection. This loss of safety and connection is particularly relevant for individuals trying to grow their families, as the stress of infertility can be comparable to that experienced by those with a terminal illness or cancer.

Dr. Berceli emphasizes the importance of releasing stress stored in our bodies to mitigate the effects on our well-being and fertility. He also discusses the science behind how chronic stress gets trapped in the body and impacts health, including the hypothalamus pituitary ovarian axis.

Berceli's expertise provides a unique perspective on the emotional and physical impact of infertility, and the importance of holistic approaches to healing.
