Why Your Body Remembers What Your Mind Tries to Forget

Have you ever felt "stuck" in a cycle of anxiety or exhaustion that no amount of talk therapy seems to fix? In this episode of Unscripted with Nompumelelo, we dive deep into the "Bible of Trauma"—The Body Keeps the Score by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk.

We explore why trauma isn’t just a memory, but a physical rewiring of our biology.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why traditional talk therapy doesn't always work for trauma.
• The science behind why we "snap" or disassociate during conflict.
• How alternative therapies like yoga, drama, and massage can help unlock healing.
• The 5-Minute Body Audit Challenge: A simple tool to start befriending your nervous system today.
