Did you know that trauma and stress can be physically stored in your hips? In this episode, we dive into the science of somatic healing, exploring how emotions, tension, and even generational trauma can get locked in the psoas muscle and pelvic region. We’ll break down why this happens, how it affects your nervous system, and powerful ways to release it through breathwork, movement, and awareness.

If you’ve ever experienced tight hips, lower back pain, or unexplained emotional releases during stretching or breathwork, this episode is for you.

What You’ll Learn: 

  • The physiology of trauma storage in the hips and psoas muscle How chronic stress, emotions, and past experiences impact the pelvic area 
  • Why women are more likely to hold tension in their hips due to biology & social conditioning 
  • How breathwork and somatic healing can help release stored trauma 
  • Practical stretches, breathing techniques, and movement exercises to create emotional and physical relief
