Trauma, Chronic Pain, & Somatic Healing with Dr. Peter Levine

In this episode of the Activate Change Podcast Chloë has a conversation with one of the most influential figures in trauma healing: Dr. Peter Levine, founder of Somatic Experiencing®.

Originally recorded in 2019, this conversation explores how trauma lives in the body—and how true healing happens not just in the mind, but at the level of our physiology and nervous system. 

Whether you’re brand new to somatics or well-versed in nervous system work, this interview is packed with insights that continue to ripple through the field of trauma recovery today.

What You'll Learn:

• How trauma lives in the body—and why it doesn’t resolve with insight alone

• The link between trauma and chronic symptoms like pain, fatigue, anxiety, and autoimmune conditions
  
  
• What happens when trauma energy is finally released—and how it becomes a wellspring of creative life force to channel in new and exciting ways
  
  
• How sexual trauma carries its own unique imprint, and what healing can look like

• How trauma and chronic stress impacts the immune, endocrine, and digestive systems

• And yes—we even talk about chakras and subtle energy systems, and how they relate to fight, flight, and freeze

• And so much more!
