    Episode Summary: In this enlightening episode, Les Raymond sits down with Michael Ruscio, a renowned functional medicine practitioner, to delve into the intricate relationship between thyroid health and gut function. They explore common misconceptions surrounding thyroid symptoms, the limitations of relying solely on blood tests, and the importance of a holistic approach to health. Michael shares insights from his research and clinical experiences, emphasizing the need to look beyond thyroid hormones to address underlying gut issues that may be affecting overall well-being.

    1. Understanding Hormonal Interplay:

  • Exploring Writing and Meditation for Healing Complex PTSD with Anna Runkle
    2024/10/01

    In this insightful episode of The Mindful Movement, host Les Raymond sits down with Anna Runkle, also known as "The Crappy Childhood Fairy." to explore how trauma, often rooted in childhood, shapes the nervous system and impacts both mental and physical health. Together, they unpack practical techniques for healing, including Anna’s twice-daily writing practice and emergency regulation strategies. Learn how to re-regulate your emotions, address emotional flashbacks, and take ownership of your healing journey. Whether you’re dealing with complex PTSD or simply looking to improve emotional resilience, this conversation is filled with valuable tools and wisdom.

    Key Takeaways:

    The Mind-Body Connection: Trauma deeply impacts both mind and body, often manifesting as chronic stress or illness. Healing requires addressing the nervous system and emotional well-being in tandem.

    Dysregulation from Trauma: Childhood trauma can leave lasting imprints on the nervous system, leading to emotional dysregulation and patterns of behavior that persist into adulthood.

    Understanding Emotional Flashbacks: Emotional flashbacks are overwhelming feelings tied to early trauma. Recognizing them is key to re-regulating and moving past them.

    The Healing Power of Writing: Anna emphasizes the importance of a daily writing practice, done twice a day. This practice helps clear out mental clutter, process emotional flashbacks, and reset the nervous system.

    Emergency Regulation Techniques: In moments of intense emotional stress, simple techniques like immersing your hands in hot or cold water or taking a quick walk outside can help reset and re-regulate your nervous system.

    Taking Ownership of Your Healing: True healing requires personal responsibility. By recognizing and managing emotional flashbacks, you can take control of your responses and maintain healthier relationships.
