117. Regulating Your Nervous System Through Food & How Trauma Manifests In Our Eating Habits with Luis Mojica

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Luis Mojica, somatic practitioner and author of Food Therapy. Luis shares his personal journey from childhood dissociation and unprocessed trauma to discovering how deeply food shapes the nervous system. They unpack his framework of stimulants, depressants, and balancers, and explore how our most persistent eating habits are often the body's unconscious attempts to manage stress and avoid pain. This conversation reframes how we think about cravings, restriction, and bingeing entirely.
