Robert Cefoli: The Neuropsychology of a Firefighter — Rescuing the Nervous System with TRE | Episode 82

In this episode, our guest is Robert Cefoli, the Director of Health and Fitness at FDNY and Co-Founder of Fyr Tribe, a non-profit dedicated to helping firefighters recover from trauma. We discuss the work environment, the stress and trauma that firefighters are exposed to, the bio-psycho-social health challenges they face, the state of their mind and body, and how body-based therapies like TRE (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises), foam rolling, and breathwork can help. Enter the mind and body of a New York City firefighter, husband, and father, as Captain Cefoli shares uncensored stories from his 20+ year journey, bleeds out his pains and struggles, and teaches us how to build resilience and strength, handle stress, and release our trauma and tension. These are lessons applicable to not just firefighters, but anyone living in the chaos and madness of modern society. If you are a parent, first responder, retiree, divorcee, addict, or have a high-stress job, this set of tools and information will likely resonate with you. Yet this is for anyone who has experienced trauma or stress and wants to come back to life. If you are ready, listen in, let go, and shake your past troubles away.
