De: Lysandra Wren

What if the anxiety, exhaustion, overthinking, and self-doubt you carry are not flaws, but symptoms of something deeper—something your body remembers even when your mind cannot explain it?

When the Past Lives in the Body is a compassionate and groundbreaking guide to understanding how trauma embeds itself not only in our memories, but in our muscles, breath, posture, and nervous system. In this powerful book, author and trauma educator Lysandra Wren invites you on a transformative journey to reconnect with your body, release what no longer serves you, and finally feel safe in your own skin.

This book is not just about trauma. It is about freedom.

If you’ve ever felt:

• like you’re "too much" or "not enough,"

• overwhelmed by your own emotions or numb to life,

• stuck in cycles of self-sabotage, perfectionism, or toxic relationships,

• chronically anxious, hyper-alert, or bone-deep tired with no explanation,

• or like you’re trying to fix your life with willpower while your body resists every step,

…then this book was written for you.

What You'll Learn Inside:

• How trauma hijacks the nervous system—and how to gently bring it back to balance

• Why healing isn’t about “thinking positive,” but learning to feel safe again

• The difference between big-T and little-t trauma—and why all of it matters

• How to recognize and work with your body's trauma responses (fight, flight, freeze, fawn)

• Tools for creating emotional safety when triggers hit, without shutting down

• How to stop outsourcing your worth and begin re-parenting the parts of you that still feel unsafe

• The role of the inner child, and how to reconnect with them in a loving and reparative way

• Daily practices to build nervous system resilience and somatic awareness

• How to set trauma-informed boundaries that don’t leave you guilt-ridden or abandoned

• Journal prompts, affirmations, and real-world scripts to use during moments of stress or disconnection

This is not a clinical manual. This is a deeply human guide for anyone who wants to break free from trauma loops and return home to themselves.

You’ll walk away with not just knowledge, but tools—grounded, practical, and gentle tools you can use every single day to reconnect with your body, rewrite your story, and reclaim your life.

Who This Book Is For:

• Survivors of emotional, physical, or relational trauma

• Anyone struggling with anxiety, burnout, or chronic emotional dysregulation

• People in therapy who want a body-based companion to their healing

• Those who have tried affirmations, mindset work, or coaching—and still feel “stuck”

• Therapists, coaches, and healers looking to understand trauma from a nervous system lens

Whether you’re at the beginning of your healing journey or already well on your way, this book will meet you where you are—with science, empathy, and hope.

You are not broken. You are surviving a nervous system that adapted to threat.
This book will help you move from survival to safety, from numbness to aliveness, from fragmentation to wholeness.

Your story does not end with trauma. It begins with reclamation.
