Episode # 166 Shadow Work: Healing Attachment Wounds with Dr. Nima Rahmani


Listen Later

What if your strongest triggers were actually gateways to profound healing? Dr. Nima Rahmani takes us on a powerful journey from his days as a successful chiropractor to becoming a specialist in shadow work and relationship transformation – but not before experiencing his own painful wake-up call.

After finding himself trapped in toxic relationship patterns that culminated in a physically abusive incident, Dr. Nima was forced to confront the attachment wounds and self-abandonment cycles driving his behavior. The insights from this personal reckoning now form the foundation of his revolutionary approach to becoming "trigger-proof."

Through vivid storytelling and practical wisdom, Dr. Nima explains how our childhood conditioning teaches us to abandon ourselves for connection, creating unconscious patterns that follow us into adulthood. He challenges common misconceptions about trauma healing, warning that diagnoses can become prisons and that many spiritual practices actually help us avoid feeling difficult emotions rather than processing them.

The conversation explores shadow work – the integration of disowned parts of ourselves – and how our strongest triggers reveal where we're still fragmented. Dr. Nima shares how healing isn't about never getting triggered, but developing the capacity to recognize self-abandonment in the moment and respond from our adult self rather than our wounded inner child.

Whether you're struggling with codependency, finding yourself in repetitive relationship patterns, or simply wanting more emotional freedom, this episode offers a compassionate roadmap toward secure attachment and authentic self-expression. Dr. Nima's forthcoming book "Becoming Trigger-Proof" promises to expand on these transformative concepts when it releases next year.

Dr. Nima Rahmany is a leading expert in shadow work, emotional regulation, and healing attachment wounds. After a successful career as a chiropractor, he left the profession to dive deep into the realm of trauma healing and relationship transformation. Driven by his own journey of overcoming toxic patterns and becoming "trigger-proof," Dr. Nima now helps high achievers, parents, and professionals break free from the cycles of codependency and self-abandonment.
