Listen Later

Have you ever wondered how trauma impacts your mind and body? Or how you can truly heal from life’s most challenging moments—whether you’ve faced a wildfire, a loss, or another form of pain?

In this episode of The Food Heals Podcast, host Allison Melody and guest JJ Flizanes come together to share their experiences with the devastating California wildfires and explore the healing tools that can help us overcome trauma—whether we’ve been directly affected by fires or not.

First, Allison and JJ reflect on their own wildfire stories, discussing the emotional and neurological toll these events can take. Then, JJ introduces her powerful Radiant Sacred Circle Meditation, a free 14-minute guided visualization designed to channel love, strength, and healing energy to those impacted by the fires.

Through this meditation, you’ll: ✨ Connect with a community sending collective love and light. ✨ Visualize healing energies flowing to those in need. ✨ Find peace within yourself while contributing to collective healing.

The conversation goes deeper as Allison and JJ explore additional tools for healing trauma and regulating the nervous system, including:

  • Meditation to calm neurological dysregulation.

  • EFT/Tapping to release stored pain and rewire emotional triggers.

  • EMDR Therapy for processing traumatic memories.

  • Brain Rewiring through neuroplasticity, blending science and spirituality to change our reactions and heal at a deeper level.

Whether you’ve experienced the devastation of wildfires or are seeking ways to heal from other forms of trauma, this episode is filled with actionable insights and hope.
