Episode Synopsis

In this deeply personal episode, Rohini shares her transformative journey of resolving childhood trauma and related autoimmune conditions through following inner guidance rather than conventional medical approaches. Rohini explores the crucial distinction between disassociation and dis-identification, emphasizing that we are not our wounds but rather the compassionate witnessing presence that tends to them. She shares how physical symptoms became messengers calling her back to her body, ultimately leading to profound healing through trauma-informed somatic work, Ayurveda, and reconnecting with ancestral wisdom.This episode illuminates the powerful connection between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and autoimmune conditions, particularly in women. It's a passionate reminder to anyone going through similar things that you're not broken — your bodies are honestly communicating what requires attention and healing.Key themes include trusting your inner authority over external medical opinions, the body as messenger rather than enemy, post-traumatic growth through integration rather than bypassing, and the liberation that comes from feeling safe to inhabit your own body. This is a vulnerable and empowering exploration of healing that challenges conventional approaches to trauma and autoimmunity.Dive deeper with 1:1 mentorship with Rohini.Join The Light Gets In — the weekly online somatic experiencing + meditation drop-in🪶 Send Rohini a text Join my Substack newsletter, The Immateria: https://theimmateria.substack.com/subscribe Work with me 1:1 Inquire about Organizational Consultancy Drop-in to the weekly online somatic experiencing & meditation session The Light Gets In: rohiniwalker.com/thelightgetsin Visit my website: rohiniwalker.com Message me by emailing me at [email protected] or on Substack.
