💨Breathe to Heal: A Somatic Journey to Reclaim Your Inner Child: 6-week course combining breathwork, somatic practices & part work
---
Why do I feel like I’m dying just because someone didn’t text me back? If you've asked yourself this, you’re not crazy — and this episode is for you.
Andrea is riding solo in today’s deep dive into emotional flashbacks, the hallmark symptom of Complex PTSD. These aren’t your typical flashbacks — there’s no visual replays, just an overwhelming flood of emotions from your childhood that hijack your present. If you’ve ever spiraled over something that seemed way too small to cause that much pain, this episode will hit home.
Key Takeaways:
🔹 What emotional flashbacks are — and how they differ from traditional PTSD flashbacks
🔹 The neuroscience of what’s happening in your brain during a flashback
🔹 How childhood abandonment trauma gets triggered in adult relationships
🔹 13 practical steps to regulate and recover in the moment
🔹 Why self-compassion (not shame) is the antidote to emotional regression
