Trauma and the Inability to Rest
Manage episode 352121043 series 3004488
We briefly talked about the death cycle of winter and rebirth in the “Trauma & the Holidays” episode, but today, Trauma Rewired is addressing how trauma inhibits our ability to rest — which is a crucial element to healing and changing maladaptive behaviors.
Hosts Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristoff of Brain-Based Wellness discuss the consequences of poor rest, including derailing the brain’s functioning. Similar to when you’re fatigued and at your full capacity, constantly running on high alert can make us more susceptible to triggers and result in stress responses.
Most of us already know that sleep is necessary for our overall health and wellbeing, but letting the mind and body truly rest is also crucial to healing. Memory integration and nervous system regulation are infinitely harder to achieve when we don’t leave time for rest and recovery.
Tune in to learn why slowing down is sometimes hard to do, and how to support yourself in the process!
Topics discussed in this episode:
- How trauma affects our internal states
- Why rest is crucial to our health, but can also feel threatening
- Actions Elisabeth is taking to change her behaviors and let herself rest
- Reasons it’s difficult to rest and recover, and its effects
- The loop of trauma and inability to rest
- Trauma and Stress responses
- Experiences with insomnia
- Is rest a privilege?
- Rest vs. freeze/shut down
- The role of rest in the healing process
