Episode Synopsis

Physical Signs of Mother Wound Trauma and How to Heal It - How trauma lives in your bodyYour body remembers everything: every dismissal, every criticism, every moment when you needed comfort but didn't receive it. In this episode, I explore how childhood trauma and mother wounds manifest physically in your adult body. From chronic headaches and digestive issues to autoimmune conditions and sleep disturbances, I explain how your nervous system learned to stay on high alert and why that tightness in your chest or knot in your stomach isn't "all in your head." You'll discover how chronic stress in childhood rewires your body around trauma, making it incredibly efficient at spotting danger but forgetting how to relax. Most importantly, I share practical tools for helping your nervous system learn it's safe now, including breathing techniques that target your diaphragm, grounding methods beyond the standard 5-4-3-2-1, and ways to create environments that signal safety to your body.With this episode you'll be able to:Recognize how childhood trauma shows up physically in your adult bodyUnderstand why your nervous system stays stuck in high alert modeIdentify your body's early warning signals before your brain catches upPractice deep diaphragm breathing instead of shallow chest breathingUse natural self-soothing mechanisms like drinking from straws or gentle pressure pointsCreate calming environments that help your nervous system feel safeDevelop a new relationship with your body based on trust and collaboration instead of criticismConnect with Brittney:Instagram: @theBrittneyScottWebsite: www.brittneymscott.comConsultation to work with BrittneyFree Resources!Don't forget to journal about when your body feels safe versus when it goes into stress mode - this information is gold for understanding your triggers and healing patterns!Mentioned resources:Body awareness journaling techniquesProgressive muscle relaxation practicesTrauma-informed massage therapyProfessional support for trauma recoveryIndividual coaching for understanding mother wound body responsesHelp me reach more mothers and daughters by following the show & leaving a rating or review on Apple & Spotify!Keyword tags:trauma in the body, mother wound healing, nervous system regulation, body awareness, chronic stress, trauma recovery, physical symptoms, hypervigilance, body signals, Brittney Scott, somatic healing, nervous system healing, childhood trauma, stress response, body wisdom
