💨Breathe to Heal: A Somatic Journey to Reclaim Your Inner Child: Early Bird Pricing through July 10th - get your damn spot now!
So often the moment we finally started healing is also the moment everything falls apart.
For so many trauma survivors, healing doesn’t feel like light and liberation at first—it feels like chaos, confusion, and losing your grip on reality. This episode dives into what it actually looks like when the nervous system starts to thaw.
Cory Scott is trauma-integration coach, an EMDR-certified therapist, and Somatic Experiencing practitioner who brings deep nervous system wisdom to her work. But before she became a trauma specialist, she was a young woman clawing her way out of an eating disorder, dissociation, and suicidal ideation. Her own recovery now fuels the way she helps others find safety, connection, and wholeness in their healing journey.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
- Why EMDR can be powerful—but also dangerous—without the right groundwork, especially for those with complex trauma or a history of dissociation.
- How disordered eating is often less about food—and more about control, shame, and survival, especially for adult children of dysfunctional families.
- What dissociation actually looks and feels like in the body, and how to recognize when you’re outside your window of tolerance.
- A free and accessible somatic tool from HeartMath that can help regulate your nervous system in moments of overwhelm (yes, even when you're heating up your coffee).
- Why real trauma healing isn’t about gritting your way through the pain—but expanding your capacity for joy, love, and pleasure.
