About this episode
It seems our culture appropriates, wraps and repackages almost anything it can get its hands on. So, after yoga, meditation, plant medicine, the newest buzz word seems to be trauma. But beyond it being - in my eyes often banalized - what is actually trauma? And how does it relate to NeuroBalancing?
It’s my great pleasure to be in this virtual room together today with Johannes Eisenburger, one of my closest friends and a trained trauma therapist. So, like always in this podcast series, before we dive into the topic itself: What were the pivotal moments in your life that made you the human being that you are - and how do they relate to the overarching topic of today?
Let’s start defining trauma: The difference between shock, developmental and attachment trauma.
Survival strategies and coping mechanisms.
Your near death experience and the biggest aviation accident in German history.
Why do people - depending on the depth of their trauma - continuously retraumatize themselves?
The Drama Triangle - and how to break free of that vicious cycle.
Our healing journeys: Let’s share some commonalities in our healing journey (shock trauma) and maybe also some differences. Especially where the different modalities helped us.
Neuro-states dictate how we feel, think and engage with the world.
Nervous system eats strategy for breakfast.
How does trauma relate to a dysregulated nervous system?
The dark side of the psychedelic renaissance, like psychosis or spiritual narcissism.
Choose your guides wisely!
Finally - why did you consciously coin your work neuro-balancing, instead of trauma healing?
