Break Free From Shame & Blame: Rewire Your Nervous System and Heal Emotionally

Shame and blame keep the nervous system locked in survival mode. In this episode, Matthew Ancira breaks down how shame patterns form in the body, why blame becomes a protective loop, and how to finally interrupt these cycles so healing can begin.

You’ll learn:

• How blame rewires the brain into defensiveness

• Somatic techniques to regulate the body after shame triggers

• Nervous-system-safe steps to release old internal narratives

• How to create self-compassion without toxic positivity
