Podcast Episode: Breaking the Chain—Rewiring Your Brain Chemistry After Trauma

Welcome to The Courageous Survivor: Breaking the Chain. In this powerful episode, Paula Walters takes you on an enlightening journey into the science behind our "happy hormones"—dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins. With nearly five decades of personal experience overcoming chronic trauma, addiction, and the medical system's failures, Paula shares how understanding and naturally boosting these key brain chemicals has transformed her life.

Discover how trauma disrupts these hormones, leading to issues like anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and a lack of motivation. Paula provides practical, holistic strategies she's implemented to restore balance in her life—strategies you can start using today to begin your own journey toward healing and well-being.

From morning routines and dietary changes to building meaningful connections and practicing gratitude, this episode is packed with actionable insights. Paula also previews the next episode, where she'll dive into the impact of cortisol, adrenaline, and noradrenaline on trauma survivors.
