The Happier Life Project

Bonus: Navigating Trauma in Relationships with Dr. Aimie Apigian


Listen Later

Welcome to this bonus episode of The Happier Life Project with host Gabby Sanderson.

We’re following on from Tuesday’s main episode with Dr. Aimie Apigian, and today we’re diving even deeper. This bonus conversation explores the powerful connection between relationships and trauma; how to support someone close to us who is struggling, and the vital inner work we need to do when their trauma responses trigger our own.

Dr. Aimie is a double board-certified physician in Preventive and Addiction Medicine, and founder of the Mind-Body-Biology Institute. She’s changing the way we understand trauma by showing us that it isn’t just stored in the mind—it’s stored in the body at a cellular level.

Her brand-new book, The Biology of Trauma (with a foreword by Dr. Gabor Maté), has just been released. This conversation was recorded shortly before publication, so you’ll hear Dr. Aimie sharing her insights right as the book was about to launch. If you haven’t already, make sure you go back and listen to Tuesday’s episode too as it’s packed with even more tools and insights.

As a practical takeaway, Dr. Aimie has also shared her 5-Day Nervous System Reset, a resource with five somatic exercises (worth $99) designed to calm and reset your body for those who purchase the book: http://biologyoftrauma.com/book

Whether you’re on your own healing journey or walking alongside someone else on theirs, this bonus episode offers practical tools and compassionate insights to help you navigate those challenges.
