  • 18. Reframe: Symptoms & pain as your body taking care of you

    Experiencing physical pain, exhaustion, chronic health conditions or symptom flare ups are no fun. But what if your sensations and symptoms are your body's way of taking care of you? Of sending your signals about what your body needs? In this episode I introduce and explore this simple yet profound idea. This episode explores

    • The idea of pain, symptoms, and sensations are both messengers and ways our body tries to meet our needs and take care of us
    • What common symptoms and sensations could mean from a somatic and emotional perspective
    • Ways to connect with your body and ask your body what it needs
    • Jaclyn Explores is hosted by Jaclyn Shea (she/her) a somatic coach, embodiment facilitator, science communicator, and health researcher.

      • 16. Intention & Integration: the critical but often missing pieces in transformation & growth

        We often assume transformation happens during an experience, like during a therapy session, a retreat, a peak experience (hello plant medicine!), etc. But our intentions before and how we integrate the experience are as much if not more important. This episode explores:

        -What outcome and process intentions are and why both can be our North Star guiding us

        -Why integration is as important if not more important than the transformative experience itself

        -How to integrate experiences so your life truly transforms and the learnings become embodied transformation

        -Why processing the "bad" does more for our growth and only processing what's working and feels good

        -Journal prompts to integrate and digest

        -How to click somatic save

          • 10. What is trauma?

            The term trauma gets thrown around a lot but what exactly is trauma? In this episode we explore three core concepts that define trauma. This episode aims to provide a high level overview of trauma by explaining what it does to our brains and bodies and how common life experiences can cause trauma. Trauma is not just MAJOR events like war but can be caused by seemingly everyday experiences that are too much or by what we don’t experience that we really should have. If you’ve ever wondered if you’ve experienced trauma, this episode is for you. 

            This episode does not cover DSM diagnoses or complex neuroscience although it does discuss complex PTSD and how the brain changes at a high level. I’ll deep dive into the neuroscience and research another time!
