The Rewire Therapy Program
Talk therapy doesn't always work - especially when the nervous system is still affected by trauma.
According to Dr. Peter Levine, our nervous system learns to hold on to trauma as a survival mechanism. That is why we often feel anxious and on guard, as our nervous system anticipates another traumatic event, which can lead to symptoms of PTSD (Levine, 2010).
Some of these symptoms can include:
- Panic attacks
- Migraines
- Nightmares
- Pelvic pain
- Tense or tingling body parts
- Numbness
- High blood pressure
- Difficulty in forming healthy attachments
When survivors living in this trauma-affected state are asked to recall the trauma, Broca’s area in the brain - responsible for speech production - tends to shut down (van der Kolk, 2014).
According to Dr. Peter Levine, verbal forms of therapy can risk re-traumatization for survivors when the autonomic nervous system has not yet had the chance to regulate.
How can we heal trauma when talking isn’t enough?
According to leading trauma expert Dr. Stephen Porges, a key way to heal trauma is through strengthening the vagus nerve.
The vagus nerve is the dominant nerve of the parasympathetic nervous system, which runs from the brainstem throughout the body.
This is why if our vagus nerve is weak, it is harder for us to regulate our emotions (Breit et al., 2018; Porges et al., 1994).
Contrarily, a strong vagus nerve is associated with emotional stability and resilience (Porges et al., 1994).
How can we tone the vagus nerve safely and gently?
With the consultation of our top experts in Polyvagal Theory and somatic therapies, Rewire Trauma Therapy has assembled expert-approved vagal toning techniques and exercises that can help you to safely and gently calm the overwhelmed nervous system to help reduce the frequency and intensity of triggers.
These techniques include:
- Self-touch
- The softening of the muscles in the face
- Breathwork
- Trauma-informed yoga
- Humming, tapping, and gargling
- Meditation
These techniques intend to help us shift from a state of hyperarousal to a relaxed state, as it is in these mindful, peaceful states, that we can best begin our process of healing.
This program gently guides one through:
- Daily expert-curated exercises to slowly release trauma from the body
- Our top-rated theory modules from polyvagal and somatic therapy experts that explain the science behind and the benefits of these exercises.

Meaningful Feedback
“It helps me to feel the body and everything that happens in it, to slow down, and be focused. I found the tools of Rewire Therapy very practical and it suits me.”
Milena Blankman, Survivor
"We can definitely feel a change in how our bodies respond to stress since using the program. Our sleep has improved, our general mood has improved and also our ability to stay centered in times of stress has greatly improved since beginning the program."
Renee Boos, Survivor
"I would think if someone was new to therapy, these exercises would help calm their mind and body so they could be more vulnerable and become more conscious and aware of their thoughts and feelings. This is a great program and I hope people take advantage of it."
Matt Domyancic, Medically Retired Cop
"I notice that I am 'tolerating' more feelings and exploring them as being transient, also to see if they are information for the here and now or something else. The approach is so gentle that I forget the power of that. I am grateful and get that this is ongoing."
Liz Gow, Survivor
"The course was presented in a very fresh, interesting, and informative way. The panel was extremely caring, professional, and engaging. The theory, exercises, and bonus program exercises were a beautiful way to present such rich information."
Rita Ehrman, Survivor
"The tools I learned in your program helped me to feel less anxious, more connected to my body, helped me to sleep better, and have a little less pain. I will come back to these tools throughout my day and look forward to re-watching the videos."
Tracie Jones, Survivor
“I found the videos were easy to fit in because they are short and didn’t overwhelm me. I began to look forward to the calm and peace it would bring to my body to follow along with a drama or art therapy technique.”

As a trauma-informed somatic therapist, counselor, and movement therapist I have always had a keen interest in how our bodies reflect and somatize our thoughts and feelings.
This fascination and exploration have spanned almost three decades, over 3,000 hours of training, and working with thousands of students and clients in this field.
As a body-based therapist, I embraced Craniosacral Therapy and Hakomi Mindfulness Psychotherapy as ways of working with our earliest emotional wounds.
I’ve trained in the NeouroAffective Polyvagal Trauma- Informed work of Dr. Aline LaPierre which works through attuned touch, presence, and somatic dialogue to meet those places in us that can continue to hold trauma in the muscular bracing patterns of anxiety and long-term stress.
