 In this episode, Gregory explores how NATURE THERAPY can support TRAUMA HEALING for those with CPTSD. Drawing from both scientific research and personal experience, he explains how even brief natural encounters can help regulate an overwhelmed NERVOUS SYSTEM, reduce HYPERVIGILANCE, and interrupt DISSOCIATIVE STATES. From forest bathing to simple windowsill gardening, Gregory offers TRAUMA-INFORMED approaches accessible to everyone, regardless of mobility, living situation, or energy levels, emphasizing that healing connections with nature don't require special training or perfect circumstances.

Key Takeaways

What You'll Discover
• Simple five-minute practices to use nature for nervous system regulation • How to create a "nature emergency kit" for times when going outside isn't possible • Techniques for adapting nature therapy to urban environments and limited mobility • The science behind why natural settings help reduce rumination and negative thought loops • Real stories from listeners who've incorporated nature into their trauma recovery
