Trauma: Have you read books full of all the reasons why trauma is linked to disease but felt a crucial piece missing? 

What to actually DO? 

This week, Dr. Aimie Apigian, double board-certified physician, trauma specialist, and author of the upcoming book The Biology of Trauma: How the Body Holds Fear, Pain, and Overwhelm, and How to Heal It, is going to make you feel seen and SO much more capable as you navigate trauma in your own life, or with someone you know going through it or trying to heal. 

Aimie shares her deeply personal experience that shaped her desire to understand trauma and healing on her own journey, and translates this into powerful work as a physician supporting patients with compassion and solutions. 

She even takes us through 2 simple exercises to feel safe in your body NOW whenever you might need them - I’ve used them ever since we recorded this. 

Enjoy the show, 

Alexx Stuart, your host.
