Her work is rooted in the belief that true healing happens not just through insight—but through embodiment.If you’ve been trying to think your way out of stress, anxiety, or burnout—but your body still feels stuck—this episode is for you.In this episode of The Rising, Janel sits down with Jacklynne Marder, therapist and somatic practitioner, to explore what somatic healing really is, why nervous system regulation matters, and how the body can hold onto stress and trauma long after the mind understands it.Jacklynne breaks down the mind-body connection, the role of the vagus nerve, and how to recognize when you’re living outside your “window of tolerance.” You’ll learn the difference between hyperarousal (fight or flight) and hypoarousal (freeze or shutdown)—and why so many people don’t even realize they’re dysregulated.In this episode, you’ll learn: ✨ Signs you’re dysregulated (even if you look “fine”) ✨ How trauma triggers live in the nervous system ✨ Why talk therapy helps—but sometimes isn’t enough ✨ The first step to regulation: body mindfulness + body scans ✨ A powerful tool to release stress: shaking (yes, really) ✨ The 3-step somatic reset: mindfulness, curiosity, allowing ✨ Progressive muscle relaxation for anxiety relief ✨ The grounding phrase that changes everything: “I am safe.”Janel and Jacklynne also talk about why we avoid discomfort (hello, instant gratification), how “Netflix and numb” keeps the stress cycle going, and why 2026 doesn’t need more resolutions—it needs more regulation.Links & Resources: 📲 Follow Jacklynne: https://www.instagram.com/jacklynnemarder_psychotherapy 🌐 Learn more: https://www.jacklynnemarderpsychotherapy.com 👉 If this episode helped you, please rate, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs more peace.Click here to follow Janel on Instagram.Click here to WATCH this episode.
