What Generational Trauma Healing Actually Looks Like (It's Not What You Think)

Generational trauma healing isn't about "just breaking the cycle." It's about regulating what was never regulated in your family's nervous system. In this episode, counselor and author Elisha breaks down the science of inherited trauma — epigenetics, how trauma lives in the body, and why your hypervigilance, people-pleasing, and anxiety may have started before you were born — and walks you through what healing actually looks like using the R.E.S.T. Framework (Regulate, Experience, Surrender, Trust). You'll learn: • What epigenetics reveals about inherited trauma • Why generational trauma lives in your nervous system, not just your thoughts • How to apply the R.E.S.T. Framework specifically to family trauma patterns • A 2-minute somatic breath practice for generational trauma • What Exodus 34:7 actually means about generational patterns and God's healing • Why co-regulation with a safe God is neurologically real — not just spiritual language 🎯 Free S.T.A.R.T.
