## Resource

What if the anxiety, burnout, or emotional pain you carry isn’t just in your mind, but stored in your body? What happens when trauma becomes the doorway to transformation? In this episode of the Drop the Needle Podcast, Jim Alstott sits down with trauma release practitioner Matan Cohen-Citron, who shares the powerful story of how a near-death experience changed the course of his life. After the accident, Matan struggled with PTSD, panic attacks, and a nervous system completely out of balance. But through years of study, practice, and more than 20,000 healing sessions, he discovered how trauma lives in the body and how it can be released. Together, Jim and Matan explore: • The hidden trauma pattern of self-abandonment • How emotions and stress become stored in the body • Why traditional talk therapy often misses the body completely • The surprising role of hypnotherapy in rewiring beliefs • The connection between movement, music, and emotional release • Why love and self-awareness are essential for healing This conversation is both deeply insightful and practical for anyone interested in mental health, trauma healing, spirituality, and personal transformation. If you’ve ever wondered why certain patterns keep repeating in your life, this episode may help you understand why. Sound Bites "Self-abandonment is a common trauma pattern." "Toxic masculinity is often held in the heart." "Love is the most powerful healing tool."
