Powered by RedCircle
IIn this second episode of a five part series, our cohosts talk about how the mind, body, and soul react to stress, trauma, and abuse. Looking at the nervous system, we discuss why we react the way we do and what it means. Today we look at the fawn response, which in its more complex form is trauma bonding. In this episode you will learn how to identify the victim and abuser, and why we stay in toxic relationships.
