Скачать или смотреть Childhood Stress Can Rewrite Your DNA — Here’s the Proof

What if childhood stress doesn’t just shape your emotions — but rewires your brain and even your genes?
In this episode of Clinical Breakdown, we explore how early adversity can leave lasting biological marks — from changes in brain wiring to DNA methylation and inflammation.

Neuroscience now shows that trauma isn’t only psychological. It’s physical, measurable, and written into the body.
But the hopeful part? What’s written can be rewritten.

We’ll look at how trauma alters:

Brain connectivity and “brain age”

Genetic expression through methylation

The body’s stress and immune systems

And how healing — through therapy, body-based work, and lifestyle — can literally reshape biology.

🧠 Trauma isn’t permanent damage. It’s a system that can be changed.
