this conversation between nobu (@nobuhojimichaan) and maija haavisto (@diamondie) explores the intersections of trauma, dissociation, spirituality, and physical health conditions.
maija, a writer and therapist living in bulgaria, discusses her work on trauma and dissociation, explaining how dissociation affects human interactions more broadly than commonly understood.
the discussion weaves through topics including buddhist frameworks, scientific research methodologies, the relationship between ehlers-danlos syndrome (eds) and spiritual sensitivity, and the complexities of the autonomic nervous system.
they explore how different forms of knowing - from empirical evidence to experiential understanding - contribute to our understanding of human consciousness and connection.
