How Trauma Survivors Learn to Trust Their Own Body Again

Rebuilding Body Trust After Trauma: Practical first steps for survivors who no longer trust their own instincts

Leanne Sheargold had a stroke at 28 while raising three sons under five, and she has spent the years since working out, then teaching, how a body that once failed someone can be trusted again. She works with women who came through trauma disconnected from their body and their instincts, women who describe reading themselves the way they would read a stranger. Her first step is never insight, it is safety: small repeatable practices that make it bearable to notice a signal before deciding what it means. She runs that body-based work alongside therapy rather than in place of it, adding energy and ancestral practice where clients want it, and a book on the approach is due out with Baloa Press. Listeners leave with one practice they can run the same day, and a clearer sense of why self-trust has to be rebuilt rather than waited for.
