Why Your Body Won’t Heal From Stress and Trauma

What if your body isn’t broken—but trying to tell you something you’ve been ignoring?

Sahar Paz is a somatic practitioner, founder of House of Paz, and a stage 4 cancer survivor whose work bridges nervous system regulation, emotional healing, and embodiment. After decades of living in survival mode—and a life-altering diagnosis—she transformed her approach to healing by reconnecting with the body rather than fighting it.

In this conversation with Eric Edmeades, Sahar shares how trauma, stress, and modern life disconnect us from our bodies—and how small, practical shifts can restore clarity, resilience, and real healing. This episode explores what it truly means to feel safe in your body again.

Key Takeaways

→ Your nervous system, not willpower, determines your ability to heal and make better decisions.

→ Chronic stress and unresolved trauma can manifest as physical illness and disease.

→ Simple practices like breathwork, movement, and awareness can rapidly shift your state.

→ Healing starts when you stop fighting your body and start listening to it.

→ Small, consistent choices create lasting transformation, not extreme overhauls.
