What if your anxiety, chronic pain, or exhaustion isn’t something to “think” your way out of?

Somatic therapist Raquel Deville joins Vibe Science to explain how the body stores unresolved stress — and why tremoring, shaking, and other involuntary movements are essential for true nervous system regulation.

In this episode, we explore:

• How trauma lives in the body, not just the mind

• Why neurodivergent individuals experience stress differently

• The science behind TRE (Trauma Release Exercises)

• Why socially “awkward” body responses are often signs of healing

• How to safely reconnect with your body’s natural release mechanisms
  

This conversation is especially powerful for listeners navigating ADHD, autism, giftedness, chronic stress, or burnout — and anyone curious about somatic healing beyond talk therapy.

What if healing starts with feeling safe in your body?

In this powerful episode of Vibe Science, we sit down with Dr. Dave Rabin, neuroscientist, psychiatrist, and Chief Medical Officer of Apollo Neuroscience, to explore why modern mental health treatments are falling short — and what science already knows that most people don’t.

Dr. Rabin breaks down the neuroscience of stress, PTSD, and recovery, explaining how soothing touch, vibration, music, and safety signals directly regulate the nervous system. He also dives deep into the controversial FDA rejection of MDMA-assisted therapy and why non-drug solutions like Apollo Neuro are becoming critical tools for healing.

This conversation bridges hard science and human connection, revealing why loneliness, chronic stress, and disconnection may be the biggest public health crisis of our time — and how we can actually fix it.

Why traditional PTSD medications only work for ~30% of people

How MDMA-assisted therapy achieves up to 88% response rates

Chronic pain doesn’t come from one place — and it can’t be healed in isolation.

In this episode of Vibe Science, we sit down with Vinny Crispino, founder of Pain Academy, to unpack his journey from elite Division I swimmer to a life-altering back injury that forced him to rethink everything he knew about healing.

After years of surgeries, rehab protocols, and specialists that focused only on the injury, Vinny discovered that true healing required a broader approach — one that integrates movement, nervous system regulation, emotional awareness, and whole-body function.

This episode explores:

Why pain often lingers long after injuries “heal”

The limits of Western medicine — and where it shines

How emotional stress shows up physically in the body

Why compensation patterns create chronic pain cycles

The power of awareness in reconnecting mind and body

How healing pain often transforms relationships and quality of life

Vinny shares why pain is not a flaw — but feedback — and how learning to listen to your body can unlock physical freedom and emotional clarity.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, broken, or afraid to move again, this conversation offers a radically empowering perspective.

Keep up with Vinny!
