Building on this knowledge, this cutting-edge guide offers simple skills for connecting and calming your body, balancing your emotions, and rewiring old patterns of reactivity for better self-regulation.

Are you struggling with IBS, Crohn's Disease, constipation, IBD, or other gut issues, and nothing is helping? If you have tried everything and aren’t feeling better, your vagus nerve might be the culprit. Trauma, chronic stress, or surgery can damage your vagus nerve and put you into a perpetual state of fight, flight, freeze, instead of rest, digest, and heal. When the vagus nerve isn’t working properly, there is a lack of communication between the gut and the brain.

Trauma is an inevitable aspect of life. You or anyone you care about has almost certainly been through trauma, whether it was "big-T" trauma like mental, physical, or sexual assault, or "little-t" trauma like divorce, loss of employment, terrible childhood events, or any scenario where you seemed worthless, frightened, or helpless. But we can recover. It doesn't have to be a lifelong process. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a form of psychotherapy that has been shown to help individuals recover from trauma and enhance their quality of life.

When a traumatic event occurs, our body triggers its “fight or flight” response. In many scenarios, the emotional reactions of this response get trapped, disrupting the feedback loop between our mind and body, leading to an imbalance in our nervous system function. Over time this can cause chronic stress, pain, high blood pressure, and a weakened immune system. This, alongside regular triggers in our everyday life, will manifest into a disconnection between our mind and body and create a constant feeling of dissociation from our emotions, with minimal control over how we feel.

More than 20,000 people have been educated to utilize the Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) technique since it was established in 1989 by psychologist Francine Shapiro. When Shapiro was out on a stroll in the woods one day, she observed that her bad feelings began to subside when she moved her eyes rapidly from side to side. This led her to theorize that EMDR could have some beneficial benefits. In a similar vein, she discovered that patients had the same good impact. People who have gone through traumatic situations and who participate in EMDR treatment may find that it ...
