In this episode, Amy speaks to Trauma Informed Personal Trainer, Laura Khoudari, who opens up about what she does and why her work is important not only for others, but for herself too. She talks about how through training the body, one can increase their capacity for stress – both physically and mentally – as well as how she found herself on this path.Laura's mission is to increase access to body-based treatment for individuals living with trauma, chronic stress, and chronic pain, in order to help them feel safe in their bodies, create the conditions for healing, improve their quality of life, and begin to thrive. Her holistic programs draw from body-based trauma healing modalities, neuropsychological models, psychodynamic theory, mindfulness practices, and exercise science.
