The Unconscious Mind: How Trauma Shapes Your Brain, Body & Nervous System

Send us Fan Mail What’s happening beneath the surface of your conscious mind—and how might it be shaping your life without you realizing it? In this episode of the Autonomic Homeostasis Activation (AHA) Podcast, Tom Pals and Ruth Lorensson explore the neuroscience of the unconscious mind, trauma, somatic healing, and nervous system regulation—and why true wellbeing may require us to look beneath the surface. Drawing on the insights of Carl Jung and the emerging understanding of how the brain continues to process, learn, and problem-solve beyond our conscious awareness, they explore how unresolved experiences can influence our emotions, behaviors, and even our bodies. From recurring dreams and somatization to hypnotherapy and AHA problem solving, Tom and Ruth discuss different ways of accessing what's happening beneath conscious awareness—and the role the brain may play in bringing those hidden experiences into the light. What might change when we stop looking only outside ourselves and begin listening to the wisdom within?
