Why does holding onto traumatic experiences keep you from feeling fully alive? In this episode of You Make Sense, Sarah unpacks why nervous system safety is the foundation of both healing and creating the life you desire. She explains that unresolved trauma gets stuck and stored in the body, and later in life, when anything reminds your nervous system of that experience, it reacts as if the danger is happening again in the present.
