Hidden Pain: Is Church at the Root of Childhood Trauma? part 2

For many, church was a place of community and guidance. However, for others, it was a space that planted the seeds of shame, fear and emotional suppression.

In this eye opening episode of Healing Huddle, Dez Gerald and Meisha Dalton confront a topic rarely discussed, the role of religious institutions in shaping childhood trauma. Could the place that promised salvation also be the source of hidden emotional pain?

We explore real life stories and lived experiences, while grounding the discussion in clinical research that shows how early spiritual trauma can have lasting effects on the brain, body and spirit.

🧠 What does the science say?
Groundbreaking research from institutions like Harvard, Johns Hopkins, and the CDC reveals that Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), including those within spiritual or religious settings, can alter brain development, elevate cortisol (stress hormone) levels and increase risks of:

*Anxiety & depression
*Chronic illness
*Sleep disorders
*Low self-worth
*Disconnection from spirituality

Spiritual trauma isn't just emotional, it’s biological and psychological too.

Join our safe, supportive space as we unpack the layers of church trauma, dismantle harmful narratives, and offer practical paths to healing the inner child; emotionally, spiritually, and physically.

Childhood trauma often hides in plain sight, shaping our minds, bodies, and spirits well into adulthood. In this powerful Healing Huddles episode, Dez Gerald and Meisha Dalton dive deep into the question: Could church experiences be at the root of childhood trauma for some? We explore personal stories and real-life examples, while also unpacking what clinical research reveals about the long-term effects of childhood trauma.

What does the science say?
Studies from leading institutions like Harvard and the CDC show that adverse childhood experiences, including those rooted in spiritual or religious environments can rewire the brain, heighten stress hormones, and increase the risk of anxiety, depression, and chronic illness. Trauma isn’t just emotional; it can manifest physically, impacting immune function, digestion, sleep, and even our sense of self-worth and spirituality.

Are your emotions making you sick? In this powerful episode of Healing Huddles, we reveal how emotional trauma, when left unprocessed, can get trapped in the body and show up as chronic illness, fatigue, anxiety or even cancer. We share the exact mind-body healing methods I used on my own journey healing from a Stage 3 breast cancer diagnosis and Meisha healing from the death of her mother by combing combining holistic tools like breathwork, somatic release, shadow work and emotional detox techniques.

You’ll learn how to:
Understand the science behind trauma and disease
Spot the signs that your body is holding unprocessed emotions
Use healing tools like breathwork, somatic therapy, tapping (EFT), and more
Reclaim your energy, immune health and peace

📚 Key Scientific Insights:
Chronic stress can reduce the activity of natural killer (NK) cells, which help detect and destroy cancerous or virus-infected cells. Studies have linked depression and emotional suppression with shortened telomeres, which are markers of cellular aging and vulnerability. Inflammation, a common response to stress and emotional trauma, is a known contributor to diseases like cancer, heart disease, and autoimmune conditions.

A 2003 study in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute found that stress does not directly cause cancer, but it may influence behaviors (smoking, poor diet, alcohol) and biological pathways (inflammation, immune dysfunction) that increase risk.

🧘🏽‍♀️ It’s time to stop suppressing and start releasing. Your body knows how to heal, you just have to listen.

What if simply touching the Earth could improve your health?
Grounding, also known as earthing, is a natural wellness practice where you physically connect to the Earth’s surface to restore your body’s electrical balance.

In this video, you’ll learn:
✅ What grounding is and why it matters
✅ Scientifically studied benefits: reduced inflammation, improved sleep, stress relief, and faster recovery
✅ How to practice grounding indoors and outdoors and even in beach environments
✅ What recent research reveals about grounding’s impact on pain, mood, and overall well-being

🔍 Science-Backed Benefits of Grounding (Research Highlights):
Inflammation & Pain Reduction: Studies published in the Journal of Inflammation Research show grounding can lower inflammatory markers and support faster healing.

Improved Sleep & Cortisol Regulation: Pilot studies have linked earthing to normalized cortisol rhythms and better quality sleep.

Cardiovascular Support: Research indicates grounding may reduce blood viscosity, potentially supporting heart health.

Stress & Anxiety Relief: Grounding activates the parasympathetic nervous system, helping the body shift out of fight-or-flight mode.

⚠️ Important Note:
Grounding is not a medical treatment or cure. It is a supportive wellness practice that should complement—not replace—professional care.

Have you ever felt emotionally drained after talking to someone? Or sensed someone’s energy before they even spoke? Have you ever walked into a room and instantly felt drained or inspired without a word being spoken? That’s not just your imagination. You’re feeling energy.

In this powerful episode of Healing Huddles, we unpack the mystery behind energy fields, auras and vibrational frequency terms are often used interchangeably, but do they mean the same thing?

👉 Energy Fields are the electromagnetic fields that surround and permeate the body, measurable by instruments like SQUID magnetometers.
👉 Auras are the subtle color-based reflections of your emotional, mental, and spiritual state—your energy made visible.
👉 Vibration refers to the frequency your energy emits. High-vibration = love, joy, gratitude. Low-vibration = fear, anger, sickness.

We’ll discuss:
✨ How energy imbalances show up as fatigue, anxiety or even disease
✨ Ways to raise your vibration naturally through food, sound & thought
✨ How to protect your energy from toxic people, environments and emotional overload.

🔬 Clinical Insight:
Studies published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine and Frontiers in Psychology show how biofield therapies (like Reiki, Qigong & meditation) significantly impact stress reduction and cellular repair by altering vibrational states. MIT and NIH studies also acknowledge the body's subtle energy system and its role in integrative healing.

🌀 Whether you're healing from illness, trauma, or just seeking balance in a chaotic world, understanding your energy field is non-negotiable.

Welcome back to the Healing Huddles!

Today, we're diving into a story many people have never heard, the true history of the pharmaceutical industry.

Before "Big Pharma" ever existed, healing came from nature.
Ancient civilizations used herbs, plants, foods and natural therapies to treat illness, addressing not just the body but the mind and spirit too.
Doctors were healers, herbalists and teachers of the natural laws of health.

But things began to shift in the 1800s, when chemists learned how to extract active ingredients from plants. Instead of using the whole herb, they isolated single compounds setting the stage for synthetic drugs.

The real turning point came in 1910, with something called the Flexner Report. Funded by the Carnegie and Rockefeller Foundations, the Flexner Report audited medical schools across North America.
Its conclusion?
Only allopathic medicine; surgery, drugs, and radiation was "scientific" and acceptable. Schools teaching herbal medicine, homeopathy and natural healing were shut down or discredited.

At the center of it all was John D. Rockefeller the oil tycoon.
Rockefeller realized he could use petroleum-based chemicals to create pharmaceuticals drugs that could be patented and sold for massive profit.
He invested heavily in drug companies, influenced medical education and branded natural healing as "quackery."

The result?
The medical system shifted from healing the root cause to managing symptoms... with lifelong prescriptions.

Since then, pharmaceutical giants like Pfizer, Merck and Bayer have exploded in size and influence, often prioritizing profits over people’s health.

But today, a movement is rising, a movement to reclaim our health by returning to nature, honoring the body's wisdom and healing from the inside out. That’s what the Healing Home Movement is all about!
