our mind can forget.
But your body never does.

This episode breaks down how unresolved stress, childhood survival patterns, emotional backlog, and everyday overwhelm don’t just affect the body — they literally code your cells, your digestion, your absorption, your inflammation, and your nervous system.

Inside, we explore:

• How the body stores unprocessed experiences
• Why cells “close their doors” under stress
• Why digestion shuts down when you’re anxious
• The exact cellular shifts chronic stress creates
• Why healing doesn’t land when your body doesn’t feel safe
• How your beliefs about food change your metabolism
• The Stanford milkshake study
• The gut–brain connection through the vagus nerve
• Why your inner child still drives your physiology
• How to teach your body that safety is the new normal

This episode blends science, somatics, psychology, epigenetics, and energy — and it will change how you see your body forever.

Next week:
How stress patterns get passed down through generations — and how you can rewrite the code.
