Unveiling Trauma: the Mind and Body effects

This Episode is the second on the series. It explores the lasting impact of traumatic events on mental health and well-being. Very briefly we discover the automatic coping responses our minds and bodies have developed over thousands of years: fighting, fleeing, freezing, submitting, and dissociating. Gain insight into the brain's intricate processing of trauma through the thalamus, amygdala, and hippocampus. The thalamus acts as a gatekeeper, assessing information for threats and signalling the amygdala. The amygdala, the brain's alarm centre, releases stress hormones to prepare the body for action. The hippocampus, like a filing clerk, compares traumatic memories to determine the level of threat. Understand how trauma memories are stored differently, causing confusion and strong emotions. Experience how triggering a traumatic memory activates the amygdala, leading to the release of stress hormones and feelings of terror or numbness. Join us on this transformative journey as we delve into the complexities of trauma and its effects on our minds and bodies. Hope you enjoy!
