And now there is scientific evidence linking the two - if we work on healing the trauma, the body recovers, too.Adriana Bucci is a life coach and narcissistic abuse survivor who helps people untangle the invisible threads between trauma, toxic relationships, and chronic pain.She shares how growing up with a narcissistic mother, and later dating narcissistic partners, left her carrying pain in ways she didn’t even realize. We talk about the mind-body connection — how years of gaslighting, repression, and emotional abuse can show up as migraines, autoimmune flare-ups, skin conditions, or chronic illness. And most importantly, Adriana explains how healing your emotions can begin to heal your body.We cover practical tools like journaling safely (without fear of your abuser reading it), the Gray Rock Method, and how to reclaim your energy from someone who only wants to drain it. Adriana reminds us that anger is not our enemy — it’s our body’s way of saying enough.Get Adriana's 7 STEPS GUIDE FREE HEREAdriana's LINKSABOUT ADRIANA BUCCIAdriana is the founder of Let's Get Your Shift Together.
