Are you sure it was this stuff? There is no scientific evidence that this Polyvagal Therapy works. While the vagus nerve does play a role in transmitting and integrating emotion-related signals between the brain and the rest of the body, there is no evidence to suggest that it has any control over such behavior.

YES!!!!! This is how I feel. Some things don’t need re-wiring, they instead need to be wired for the first time !!!!!! So much resonates with me. Thank you 🙏

That upbringing was straight in the 60s. Not to mention many other factors in my young life. Glad to be attempting to heal at the age of 63. This all sounds so me.Ty❤️

Makes total sense! Wiring parts that weren’t wired in childhood! Thank you

I have noticed since I have been watching your videos and talk, my nervous systems seems to be more calmer; I can't explain it but you have made me become aware of it, like a holistic living system thats connected to everything. When you speak I can see how all your nervous systems are in harmony and it is very calming and spiritual feeling which I like and are drawn too.

This is exactly what I needed to find right now. I’m going through a lot of changes right now with my mental health. I have been making positive changes, but it’s been overwhelming and my way of coping with overwhelm is, on top of learning how to sit with my emotions, is research. I’ve been through a lot of trauma, some childhood, some domestic, some alcohol dependency related, but I’m healing now and it’s nice to know what going on in my noggin and still give myself kudos for how far I’ve come.

I had to mix my meditation with journaling. Meditation doesn't make you anxious, it just shows how severely anxious you already are. it's like a weird mirror. If you don't have counseling or don't reflect on your life and feelings - seeing that mirror is frightening. Also popular meditation is always the sitting still and trying to silence a mind. Well if you experience trauma - how can you tell your brain to quiet? Your brain is screaming, lol. So do the meditation that works for you. I have ADD - meditation is lying in bed or doing gardening. When my brain feels safe, then it quiets. Remember, you and your body are healing together.

you are incredible!! been battling mysterious physical and mental health issues for quite some time now and have been researching so much about trauma and it’s link to chronic illness - and it’s funny, i keep telling everyone “i feel like my nervous system is out of whack or misfiring - it’s something new every week!” - just embarked on a neuroplastic journey not too long ago and i haven’t been holding myself accountable as much as i should. your approach is so refreshing. i look forward to continuing binging your videos!!

Good stuff! I recently started an exercise program with the help of a trainer and look at it as physical therapy. I come from that dysfunctional family background and know how to close off feelings. So when the trainer asks things like how did your body feel after the last session, it takes a moment for me to come up with a coherent answer. These training sessions are baby steps for me to become more active with my body and in the world. It's giving me permission to focus incrementally and not rush to the nearest gym to pump iron. Be well all. Thank you Irene.

Thank you. Very well explained. Blessings from South Australia 🌷

This is so helpful. I just restarted therapy for childhood trauma and since I just got started, the first session triggered an avalanche of memories and feelings. On one hand it felt good to learn something about myself but then I needed answers and researched and got totally overwhelmed my own body physically got up and walked away from the computer. I wasn’t listening to my body and I went too fast. This video was very helpful ❤️

I've been working through this the past few years and the biggest critics I've had to deal with have been my "care team" who don't get on board with anything until they "discover" it themselves months after I bring it up.

Absolutely mindblow. Thank you sooo much for this information. I had the same problem with meditation, meditating years and I progressed very slowly. Not long time ago I started to build "safe space" in my imagination and that helped me ALOT, I started to feel the body more and also let emotions to release. I see that feeling safe is REALLY important.. Thanks also for your other videos, it helped me to do this safe space.

My experience is that a life with trauma can make it impossible to organize your nutrition and exercise as much as you should. My trauma stops me from doing those things. I need to feel safe to be able to give myself this so I prefer to start with inner work. I've come quite far in my neuromodulation now and I'm able to stay with my feelings, so personally I haven't gone through the steps in that order.

Hi Frida, Jen here from Team Lyon. The experience you describe is common for those of us with trauma histories. Often we need to grow nervous system regulation and capacity before we're able to take steps like eating healthier and exercising consistently. Have you seen Irene's free Healing Trauma video series? It's a great way to get the bigger picture and to put this info into context. I'll link to it here in case you want to check it out. irenelyon.com/healing-trauma

Ahhh this is so helpful! I’m finally getting to a place where meditation isn’t painful and it was definitely because I’ve been working on the other stages without realizing it. Wish I had seen this years ago

Thank you so much for your channel. It is been very helpful and informative. I've been recovering from my childhood traumas for over a decade now and during this time I've seen many psychotherapists. Sometimes those interactions have been more retraumatizing than actually healing. I feel like my own inner work and research from KZread, studies and books have helped me a whole lot more. For example, I was seeing a specialized traumatherapist who always engouraged me to focus on that part of the body where I felt the pain or numbness. That usually made me feel so much more disconnected and unsafe. She also encouraged me to just keep on deep breathing although I said to her that I just can't do that now no matter how hard I try. Then sometimes when big feelings like anger was coming on the surface and I started to feel helpless in the session she came into my chaos and started to fix it. When I said that I want to take a moment to regulate and can you please back of a little and give me space she couldn't do that and instead she started to ask me questions like "Well, how do you want me to help you then". At that point I just went to completele freeze. I've had similar experiences with many therapists. It also happens in several other occasions like in sport hobbies and even with singing classes. When you start to feel like your body is or is getting into freeze or other survival mode and you start to get panic and become passive people usually just seem to automatically push more. Give more advices, ask questions, even punishment.. Just about everything that just makes you feel more insecure. I cannot understand that. But I guess it just shows that most of us actually don't understand and listen to our bodies and when we see others in pain or helpless we cannot feel compassion and be there for them because we can't keep our own system separate from others and take the pressure off to create safety. That is a common pattern and cycle I see a lot. What you explain in your videos makes perfect sense to me and that is what I have learned through my own experiences and studies. But still it would be so helpful to find more interactions that actually helps you feel more safe because although I'm starting to understand myself, make progress with healing and connecting with my body I find it very hard to feel safe with other people and confronting them just keeps on triggering my body and leave me dissosiated for days or even weeks. It takes so much time for me to get my nervous system calm again. Sometimes it has made me isolate for long periods of time. On the other hand isolation helps with the safety but at the same time it can also enlarge the void between the connection and trust with other people. That is a conflict I find very hard to solve and I feel like it limits my life so much. I can't do things I'd like to because it takes so much time for me to recover from these interactions with people. And very rare people seem to understand. Sometimes it's so frustrating to try to explain yourself to people who just don't see or hear you and who keep on forcing and judging and systematically belittling your experiences.

08:41 Norman Doidge, _Brain's Way of Healing_ He talks about the 5 stages of neuroplasticity.

Thank you so much! I’ll totally get your e-book. One of the problems I have is depersonalization-derealization disorder (I’ve had it for over ten years) and in stationary treatment they advised me to be mindful and meditate and it does help, just the mindfulness mindset did already help me a lot to move to the right direction but it helps only to a degree and then it doesn’t anymore. I used to make body scans every day for about 9 months and at the beginning it was helpful and I was a little calmer and then it got really bad, I almost couldn’t get endure staying still for five minutes because my whole body felt like a thousand ants were running all over it. I saw that as me having to learn to cope with my anxiety and after a while it did get better. But then after another while it got worse again and I didn’t have the energy to do this fight again so I stopped. But I am still meditating every once in a while although it’s difficult because it has teached me to focus my system and get out of the flight mechanisms I am living in all the time, even if it’s just a bit. I still get really anxious because I can’t deal with myself yet. My experience when I try to stop and look inside is more like I am looking and then falling into an abyss and there is nobody to help me. Like existing is pain and I shouldn’t exist. Mindfulness and meditation helped me start to teach my body and mind that it’s okay to exist and calm down at times. It doesn’t work completely and I guess my nervous system and psyche is just not there yet, but it does help nonetheless.

Hi nyctilla, Jen here from Team Lyon. From a nervous system perspective, depersonalization-derealization disorder is something we can experience when the nervous system uses freeze as it's go to response for dealing with stress. When this is the case, meditation can sometimes help manage symptoms but it's not a long term solution. The good news is that this (and a lot more!) can change when you learn to grow nervous system regulation and capacity. I'll link to a few of Irene's resources that might be of interest.

Team Lyon Dear Jen, thanks for your response. This explanation resonates with me a lot. I have actually even described my state of being as “living in the freeze response” (means “Totstellreflex” in German which translates to “reflex to play dead”) before I had done much research on trauma and just knew about those three types of responses. I’ll check those resources out!

Hi Zen Lipstick, Seth here from Team Lyon, thanks for being here!

Also in my experience the issue with meditation is that moving is discouraged and it could potentially trigger a freeze response and following the breath if it's shallow and rapid can create more agitation and discomfort. What's more beneficial is resourcing and moving away from uncomfortable sensations so the nervous system feels more contained, has more capacity and feels safe and not go into overwhelm.

I can totally relate to trying to have a calmer life and only feeling like being in a room with someone who is just screaming.

Totally agree with this but learning TM in '87, having an incredible sense that I had touched a Magnifence within me for the first time, CHANGED MY LIFE. I've not missed a day of meditation since, have found many other inc Vipassana 10 day silent retreats, my latest discovery is WIM HOF breathing, cold showers, push-ups. Meditation changed me from the INSIDE. I neuromodulate by daily Wim Hof breathing, cold showers, meditation, yoga.Thank you for your lessons.

Relate to the mindfulness/meditation bits. I often used to find meditation mind numbing - just absolutely nothing there in my mind, in a strange quiet disconnected kind of way. But when I got into psychotherapy, started to realise how much I dissociated and I started to connect to my feelings, then meditation started to feel like a useful tool - I started to feel (sometimes scary) feelings come up during it and also moments of calm from it. I don’t think that would have happened without my therapist first helping me sit through feeling my feelings in therapy. I had a controlling, abusive, religious upbringing too like the people Irene describes.

Good stuff

It makes so much sense not to add in extra neuro differentiation exercises if the body is already complete disregulated. If you already know how to calm your system, then things like meditation can be extremely beneficial

I am just starting with you. I've always sensed that the pain I felt in the body was from a reaction to fear I sense in the environment. And mindful relaxation doesn't do it for me. I'm either hyped up or on the bed exhausted. I shall look for the e-book.

Check out Norman Doidge's work for background reading. Be gently diligent and persistent and plan to play the long game. First Stage- Neuroculturate - Establish Good Lifestyle behaviours- good food, sleep, exercise. Second stage- Capacity to neuromodulate which means being able to regulate our nervous systems. Third part in sequence- Neurostimulation, out in sunlight, exercise enough only, swimming and more. Fourth step- neurorelaxation- rest, regenerate. not just in sleep. Even one minute every hour of the waking day is very good. Fifth Step- neurodifferentiation, ability to tell the difference between, previously tangled, states. So good, Thank you Irene- heart heart heart

I had a Greek World History teacher in high school who was passionate about Greek history and culture and who spent an inordinate amount of time on the Greek ideal of Sound Body, Sound Mind. That was 40 years ago. Crazy how much of our scientific "discovery" seems always to have correlations to ancient wisdom from a variety of disciplines. Also, how much arrogance has separated us from those disciplines, as if the ideas hold no value unless they are ours. How much energy are we wasting essentially reinventing the wheel? Alan Watts, Joseph Campbell, and Lao Tzu, the Bible, and myriad other purveyors of great ideas in philosophy may not explain the mechanical processes involved, but long ago identified operative keys and desired results. I don't need to know how an internal combustion engine works in order to drive a car. But, I appreciate VERY much that you've taken the time and effort to identify the complexity of the systems involved and describe how to manage them in coordination to facilitate healing because study of the ancients may give you the tools, they stop short of giving you the manual to use them most effectively. And going at it in a haphazard fashion could take decades with no promise of achieving the desired outcome. I'm glad to have all of that knowledge (liberal arts degrees ARE beneficial -- but that's an argument I engage in elsewhere), but very much needed a qualified guide to help me apply what I know. Thank you for being my guide! I can't tell you how excited I am to finally understand what has been happening to me and to have at least a solid direction in which to begin. I feel like I found you just in the nick of time as my therapist just this week started me on a daily routine of meditation to sort of calm my trauma responses in advance of their triggers (though I don't know what they are) which makes zero sense to me. I felt like she was giving me a prescribed response, generic to PTSD, without fully understanding the complexity component of my trauma.

Very good and well explained In my opinion you need more than anything else is to go into one’s feelings, to experience true wholeness. Meditation will just suppress and maintain trauma.

hi Irene, i recently had a (what can i only describe as psycosis due to THC use and large amounts of coffee), there are 4 mounths since i sleeped at all. I sometimes get to the point of my eyes closes but just when to fall i have a twitch of hands like i'm afraid to go sleeping. I coming more in the present and slowly recovering. What i did to get thru was a lot of meditation and i trust my body. Funny thing is before i started all this i had my best 2 weeks of my life and did amazing job with my T.

pco2004, Jen here from Team Lyon. Irene covers these in her 21 Day Nervous System Tune Up course and more comprehensive SmartBody SmartMind program. She also has a related free e-book. I'll share links to all three in case you want to check them out. 21 Day Nervous System Tune Up - 21daytuneup.com/ SmartBody SmartMind - smartbodysmartmind.com/ 5 Stages of Neuroplastic Healing - irenelyon.com/5-stages-of-neuroplastic-healing

Thank you for all the information, very helpful. I would like to share that the „ Wim Hof - Method“ breath-work and exposure to cold ,...like cold showers has helped me a lot. It helped me to overcome overthinking, reduced stress and has boosted my immune system. I highly recommend it. Thanks again for your content.

Thanks for sharing your experience! For Irene's thoughts on Exposure to cold (especially long periods of time) I suggest checking out this video - kzread.info/dash/bejne/e6Wg1M-we83cnZs.html Nicole - Team Lyon

Recovery isnt linear. 2 steps forward 1 step back.

Irene, you really are a Godsend. I believe you are an angel sent here from above to spread your spiritual work. While you may not talk about the spirituality, let me tell you, it shines through you anyhow!! Muah! Oh! is it SAFE to bingewatch your videos all day long for days at a time? I feel like it helps me so much.

Hi Terry, Seth here from Team Lyon. Thanks so much for your lovely comments! It's actually a good question - whether or not it's good to binge watch this kind of content. I would say that one would want to err on the side of caution as even taking in this theory and knowledge can be activating for someone with a trauma history. Soi just watch your system, as well as the videos! If you find yourself getting agitated, or numb, or checking out, etc... then leave it and go do something else for a while :)

Wow an actual blueprint. Tough when your inability to neuromodulate fucks everything up, takes time to lesrn and thats where im at

I had lower limb dystonia of my left foot that just started out of nowhere a couple of months after the stroke.. slowly got worse as the cramping and contractures have become more rampant with certain movements. Just walking across the floor can trigger it. Really looking for options. Thank you for your education!

Sorry can't remember which video you used the train track analogy. It really sent me to a very difficult place of grief and rage. Then new perspective. Something happened 10 years ago that has me convinced that I blew out my wheels back then. Therefore I can't build a new train without wheels. I gotta rebuild the wheels from scratch and I really don't know how and too angry about that to focus. I really needed to cry for 2 hours about my loss of wheels. So then I could get to the place where I could comprehend building new wheels. Reassuring myself that I for the first time in years am in a place to safely express these emotions. Thank you.

I have been stuck in fight or flight my whole life because, as a hypersensitive person with a constantly stressed out and scared mother, I never learned to calm down. I already improved my lifestyle, but how do I start tackling the second step if I never learned to calm down in the first place?

Ashwagandha is a hormone regulating herb (adaptogen) it reduces the stress hormone cortisol to healthy levels. Adaptogens also have many other benefits and I recommend to include it in your vitamin stack. Make sure you take 400mg of quality magnesium per day, a good form of magnesium supplement is Magnesium Bisglycinate, it is well absorbed by the body, another form of magnesium to take (which is like ice-cream for the brain) is called Magtein, this is a patented version of magnesium designed to cross the blood brain barrier. To answer your question - "how do I start tackling the second step if I never learned to calm down in the first place" Research, take control of your wellbeing, no one else will do it. Because of early trauma we didnt learn things at the critical time, but we are still alive and can learn now. How sick of suffering are you? Ask yourself these questions, Is just coping good enough? There is so much more we can do for ourselves, it is not hard work because it is your own liberation from suffering you are involved in, it can turn into a creative joy. Our trauma is not our identity, you are Eternal Consciousness, observing the play of existence. I recommend meditation also.

This is So me! My life has been horrific and I am literally Frozen in my nervous system..to the point of partial paralyzation. This gives me Hope. I am practicing forgiveness and gratitude and this is really helping but I have people in my life who challenge me and this makes it harder. Life has been very hard for me.

Hi kathleen Wharton, it's inspiring to hear that watching this gives you hope. Sometimes we may have early or developmental trauma without knowing it, and this can have a massive impact on our health and on our life. I saw that you're planning to watch Irene's Healing Trauma training which is a great start. I'll link to two other resources that might also be supportive as they are things you can practice. - 4 Steps to Calm Overwhelm: irenelyon.com/4-steps-to-calm-overwhelm/ - Ancient Anxiety Medicine: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Yn131cSRhaaxnbA.html Jen - Team Lyon

Team Lyon I know I had trauma. My father killed my mother and then himself when I was seven years old and I was there. Then I married a very religious selfish man and was beat down by him and his church for over 30 years. I am not sure I will recover in this life time!

Hi I have pulsating tinnitus. Doctors say blood vessels in brain coursing along hearing nerves. Accupuncture had helped as did yoga. Can your approach help? Thanks

In your e-book on this, neurostimulation and neuromodulation are switched, neurostimulation being the second stage and neuromodulation being the third. Which order is correct?

What stage are you in? You recently said that you don't know if we are ever done releasing old stuff, so are you still in the modulation stage? Is it even one big sequence that happens once or does it happen several times on a smaller scale? Like, that you relax a bit after releasing one chunk of stress and then need more rest to detoxify from that stress?

Hi! Love your work! what would you recommend I study if I wan to support my coaching clients with Trauma work/ Nervous system tools but dont necessarily want to do a 3 year training right now? Which courses would you recommend, do you have one and if i did want to do the full training, which one would you recommend? I am in Australia. Thank you!

Hi Hypnosis for Entrepreneurs, Jen here from Team Lyon. Great to hear that you're interested in Trauma/Nervous System work! If you haven't already seen it, I'd recommend Irene's free Healing Trauma training. It's not a training in the sense that you're asking for one, and it gives a great overview of key concepts related to healing trauma through working with the nervous system. Irene's online programs aren't designed to be trainings for practitioners, and they are a great way to get this work into your own system which is a huge part of doing this work with clients. Her 21 Day Nervous System Tune Up can be a great place to start, and what you learn there would be supportive to most any other training you'd do. The Somatic Experiencing Training is a 3-year training, and the first year is foundational so some people do just the first year and then decide if they want to continue. What you learn in the first year is broadly applicable if you want to learn general concepts and practices related to working with trauma (it won't make you "trauma trained" and is always important to stay in your scope of practice). Here are a few links for you: Free Healing Trauma training: irenelyon.com/healing-trauma The 21 Day Nervous System Tune Up: 21daytuneup.com Somatic Experiencing Training: traumahealing.org/training-event-search/

If you resonate with Irene's teaching style, I encourage you to consider joining the 21 Day Nervous System Tune Up. It's a great way to go deeper into nervous system education and practice and to support and inform related professional steps you may decide to take.

Hi there, is the link to the e-book still available, please? ‘Sequencing’ is something that I have been paying more attention to during my orientation and resourcing journey personally and professionally. I love when you make these big concepts so digestive and attainable through the awareness of 5 steps for example. Fascinating stuff! Do you offer a certified course for physical therapists? Also, what is the best way to refer a client to you, please? Many thanks, Vanessa

Hi Vanessa, Seth here with Team Lyon. Yes, it is always available... irenelyon.com/5-stages-of-neuroplastic-healing. Irene offers two different online programs for learning about and healing trauma, but at this point doesn't have any kind of teacher training or certification course. Since she puts all her energy into creating this online world of trauma healing she doesn't see clients privately anymore, so the best thing would be to refer them to her KZread channel, her website, or her online programs. Here's some links! Website - irenelyon.com/ Free Resources - irenelyon.com/free-resources-2/ 21 Day Tune Up - 21daytuneup.com/ SmartBody SmartMind (only runs once a year) - smartbodysmartmind.com/

Can the brain start to heal while doing a taper off benzos or do you have to be completley off the medication for that to happen?

Irene, part of my movement in healing is going to someone who does cranial sacral work and SOT. He does techniques to "reset the nervous system". What are your thoughts on this?

@teamlyon3109

Hey! Nicole here from Team Lyon. So great that you're working with someone who does cranial sacral work and SOT work. It's hard for me to know what he's doing when "resetting the nervous system". My sense is that it's supporting the system to "settle"? They key with this work lies in shifting out of survival and into regulation. The trauma/survival piece is often missing in modalities. It doesn't mean that the work can't be helpful. It just means that it might not support accessing these deep layers. I would suggest asking him what he means by "resetting the nervous system" :)
