When you experience trauma it can trigger a cascade of physiological and psychological responses in the brain. Here are some ways in which emotional trauma can impact the brain: 1. Amygdala activation: The amygdala, a part of the brain responsible for processing emotions, can become highly active during and after a traumatic event. This can cause emotional responses, such as fear and anxiety, to be heightened. 2. Altered prefrontal cortex activity: The prefrontal cortex, involved in higher-level

We know that trauma impacts the amygdala and the hippocampus, but a study of a tiny region of the brainstem demonstrated the processes that determine which memories are preserved during highly emotional circumstances. ⬇️. “A surge in locus coeruleus activity during highly emotional or arousing events, such as a car crash or a scene of violence, helps to transform those experiences into vivid and lasting memories,” said David Clewett, the study's lead author and a New York University postdoctoral

Trauma changes how the brain and body respond to stress. After trauma, the brain’s “alarm system” (the amygdala) becomes too sensitive, and the part that calms it down (the prefrontal cortex) gets weaker. This makes even small stressors - like an email from your boss - feel like life-or-death situations. Your body reacts the same way to both: fast heartbeat, tense muscles, panic.. anxiety … It’s not a choice; it’s just how trauma rewires the nervous system. If you would like to learn how to over

Stress creates rapid molecular changes inside the amygdala, the brain region that processes fear, alertness and emotional reactions. When the body senses a stressful event, nerve pathways send fast signals to the amygdala. This activates cells that release chemical messengers such as glutamate. Glutamate makes nearby neurons fire more easily, raising the overall activity level of the region. At the same time, stress hormones released from the adrenal glands begin to reach the brain through the b

EMDR isn’t magic, it’s neuroscience. When you experience trauma, your brain’s memory network gets fragmented and stuck in the amygdala (your fear center), instead of integrated in the hippocampus (your story center). That’s why you know the event is over but still feel like it’s happening. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation to re-activate the trauma network while you’re grounded in the present. This dual attention forces the brain to reconsolidate the memory with new meaning and lower emotional int
