Lesson Overview

25.24 – What Trauma Does to the Brain and Body: Trauma isn’t just emotional—it changes how your brain and body work. Constant stress floods you with adrenaline and cortisol, keeping you alert even when life is calm. Memories can feel fragmented because your brain prioritized survival over storytelling. You may have stomach issues, headaches, or sudden panic that seems random. Understanding the science removes shame: these reactions are biology, not weakness. Practices like grounding, movement, and mindful breathing help regulate the nervous system back toward balance. Recovery means teaching your body it’s safe again. Knowledge becomes medicine—each fact turns fear into understanding, and understanding becomes the start of healing.
