How does trauma live in the body and influence our long-term health?

Can suppressed emotions contribute to chronic inflammation and illness?

What’s possible when we work with the body’s natural intelligence to heal?

 

In this episode of Kaleidoscope of Possibilities – Alternative Perspectives on Mental Health, Dr. Adriana Popescu is joined by holistic trauma specialist Veronica Merchak to explore the connection between trauma, inflammation, and healing. Veronica shares her unique approach to helping clients process trauma, combining modalities like BodyTalk, Trauma/Tension Release Exercises (TRE), and her own method called Quantum Field Talk Therapy.

Veronica brings personal experience and professional insight into how the body stores trauma and suppressed emotions—often beneath our awareness—and how those energetic imprints can manifest in physical dysfunction, chronic inflammation, and illness. She offers hope, perspective, and practical tools to support healing and transformation at all levels, empowering us to look at what’s possible when we reconnect with the body’s natural wisdom.

• How unresolved trauma gets stored in the body and contributes to chronic inflammation
