Why do so many people feel disconnected from their bodies even while doing "healthy" things?

In this episode of the EASE OS™ Podcast, Dr. Connie Cheung explores the somatic layer of healing — how chronic stress, nervous system dysregulation, posture, trauma, and performance-based wellness disconnect us from our bodies over time.

Drawing from decades of experience in physical therapy, yoga, functional medicine, and her own kidney failure and transplant journey, Dr. Connie explains why yoga was never meant to be performance — it was meant to be a laboratory for awareness.

Topics include:
➣ nervous system regulation
➣ somatic healing
➣ trauma stored in the body
➣ chronic tension and posture
➣ yoga as a somatic laboratory
➣ functional medicine and nervous system health
➣ physical therapy and embodiment
➣ chronic stress physiology
➣ mind-body connection
➣ burnout and disconnection
➣ autoimmune and nervous system patterns
➣ why awareness must come before intervention

This episode is for anyone who feels exhausted trying to "fix" themselves while feeling increasingly disconnected inside.
