How to Calm, Soothe, and Rewire Your Nervous System for Lasting Peace with Vandana Atara Noorah

I was so grateful to join Shreya on The Soul Mirror for a transformative conversation on healing trauma and restoring balance to the nervous system. Together we explored how trauma—both personal and ancestral—shapes the way we feel and respond to life, and why real healing must include the body as much as the mind and spirit.

I shared how unresolved emotional wounds can begin even before birth, how generational imprints affect our well-being, and why somatic practices are essential for releasing trauma stored in the body. We also discussed the risks of spiritual bypassing—using only “high-vibration” states to avoid emotional work—and the importance of integrating spiritual guidance with grounded, embodied practices.

During the episode, I offered a simple self-soothing ritual you can use anytime, anywhere, to bring your nervous system back into balance. Whether you struggle with anxiety, insomnia, or emotional overwhelm, these tools can help you return to calm, compassion, and grounded presence in just a few minutes.

This dialogue is an invitation to remember that healing is not about blame—it’s about awareness, acceptance, and finding the right support so we can live with greater peace, self-acceptance, and authenticity.
