“With gentle consistency, we will be able to rewire our nervous system." -Dr. Aimie Apigian
Dr. Aimie is a Board-Certified
Preventive and Addiction Medicine Physician with a Double Masters
in Biochemistry and Public Health. She specializes in trauma,
attachment and identifying and reversing the effects of stored
emotions in the body and on our health. Having personal experience
in foster parenting, adopting and then her own chronic fatigue and
autoimmune issues, she has discovered that negative life
experiences become our biology, not just psychology. Compromising
every system in our biology, these stored emotions cause
inflammation, digestive issues and contribute to all disease and
aging. Stored emotions become the biggest thief to our health,
happiness and aliveness without us ever knowing.
A
2-time Summit Host, she is the founder and director of Family
Challenge Camps, a weekend intensive for families, and founder and
CEO of Trauma Healing Accelerated where she provides education and
courses for those wanting to hack their survival systems and
accelerate their healing journey from trauma to achieve their best
mental and physical health. Her courses include experiential
courses for the general public on shifting The Biology of Trauma
and a certification coach for those in a healing profession to have
more tools for understanding and addressing the Biology of Trauma.
In today’s talk we discuss the negative health consequences of
stored trauma and steps we can all take to start healing. Make sure
to stay until the end when Dr. Aimie takes us through two exercises
to reduce overwhelm that will leave you feeling relaxed and
expanded.
