If they have knowledge that can help us heal - body, mind and soul - I'm happy to have a chat with them and share with you!\" As my skills improve (technology wise) I'll be sharing information in an editorial / information sharing format as well. Madonna has been studying healing modalities for 3 decades and has been a kinesiology trainer for over 15 years. As a naturopath and kinesiologist, energetic healer and nutritionist, herbalist and homeopath, radio guest for a dozen years - there is a massive amount of knowledge that she has to draw from.

They explore the deep interplay between trauma, ACE scores, blocked primitive reflexes, gut–brain inflammation, cortisol patterns, and nervous‑system wiring. Together, they explain how early experiences — from birth interventions to childhood stress — shape the way adults interpret tone, conflict, feedback, and social cues. They also discuss how modern lifestyle factors, sensory overload, diet, and microbiome imbalance can amplify emotional reactivity and make everyday interactions feel threatening. The conversation moves into practical, grounded strategies for building resilience: breathwork, grounding, nervous‑system retraining, reflex integration, and diversifying life roles to reduce sensitivity to criticism. Madonna and David also explore family dynamics, relationship patterns, and why unresolved trauma can make certain people or environments feel unsafe. The episode concludes with a demonstration of the Moro reflex exercise, showing how simple movements can help rebuild neural pathways from the survival centres of the brain to the problem‑solving regions — creating more calm, clarity, and emotional stability. 0417 643 849 for appts 🔗 TriGLP (Orygn) • Customer link: https://madonnaguy.myorygn.co/shop • Retail/distributor: https://madonnaguy.orygn.co/shop Metagenics Practitioner Shop • https://www.metagenics.com.au/pages/practitioner/madonna-guy?referral=nele-0910-7616 Cerule Stem Cell Support • https://madonnaguy.cerule.com • https://madonnaguy.cerule.com/www/shop • https://madonnaguy.cerule.com/www/Affiliate?country=AU #NervousSystemHealing #TraumaInformed #ACEAwareness #EmotionalResilience #Holistic…","meta_description":"In this episode, holistic counsellor David Sheil and kinesiologist/naturopath Madonna Guy unpack why some people feel “picked on” even when no one is targ…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":3366,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-natural-alternative-with-madonna-guy-5290149/episodes/354-why-some-people-feel-picked-on-trauma-reflexes-gut-brain-wiring-nervous-system-patterns/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-natural-alternative-with-madonna-guy-5290149/354-why-some-people-feel-picked-on-trauma-reflexes-gut-brain-wiring-nervous-system-patterns.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
