I have a question about the episode Jonathan Reisman: The Human Body - From Sex & Sperm to Hands & Heart | Lex Fridman Podcast #297 and the clip Healing Through Understanding. In the episode "Stanford Psychiatrist Reveals How Cognitive Therapy Can Cure Your Depression and Anxiety" and the clip "Perception and Reality," Andrew talks about a process to erase fear and traumas by retelling the narrative. He mentions that the whole point of that process is to diminish the physiological response. If the goal is to diminish the physiological response, then if a person works to change their physiological response immediately after being triggered, would that over time also diminish the physiological response and therefore break the conditioning? Am I right? For example, if a person had a traumatic experience with a spider, but every time they see the spider or get activated through some trigger, and immediately after uses breathwork to calm the body, would that work like retelling a narrative to extinguish the fear? Did I miss something?
Does the process of erasing trauma through meditation, as described in the episode 119. Clean Conscious: Exploring Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy with Dr. Will Siu and the clip Healing Through Self-Discovery, align with what Andrew Huberman discussed about erasing fear and trauma in the episode Something Scary Happened The Other Day and I Wanted To Talk To You About It | Mel Robbins Podcast and the clip Integrating Traumatic Experiences? Can you explain the similarities and why meditation seems to work, even though people aren't actually retelling the narrative of the trauma over and over? It seems more like they are observing it and trying to keep their bodies calm to avoid engaging with it physiologically.
Have you had an episode where a somatic and embodiment coach spoke about trauma impacting our sense of feeling blocked and how we can reach mental health through somatics, healing, and Ayahuasca ceremonies, specifically in relation to the episodes "BEAT STRESS With Science by Discovering Your Vagus Nerve | Stefan Chmelik" and "Healing Through Movement"?
