Welcome to the AUMM GYM
Trauma Informed Fitness
~From the Inside Out
For Partners & Parents
Just as Richard Reeves author of Boys & Men says~
"Parenting is being your kid's Prefrontal Cortex"
Your Parents were yours...
And Partners CoCreate and Coregulate each other's.
Our Environment, Community, the News also all play a
part in shaping our Nervous System and so our Health.
Did you know~
That stress is responsible for most of our Illnesses & Disease
and only 5% of people who try to lose weight, stop drinking
and drugging are able to sustainably stop?
So many unseen factors play a role in not only what our system,
feels as a stressor or trigger, or how we're set up to prevent it
or handle it...Also whether or not it will affect our health and
relationships and that of those we love in the short or long term.
Did you know~!
Most Health & Relationship issues are actually
symptoms of our Past Trauma becoming Present?
Again, only 5% of us who try to lose weight keep it off?
Why?
Our current lifestyle & lovestyle as well as
thoughts, feelings behaviors/habits, unless
worked with, are influenced by our early childhood
experiences and yes, recent traumas and or stressors.
We need Emotional Intelligence & Maturity for~
True Intimate Relationship Partnering Potential
Parenting Capacity & True Physical Fitness!
At a deep level~
To put an end to inward abuse & violence toward ourselves
and outward abuse & violence towards others -
especially those we say we love!
Yes this too is where and why most violence, criminality
& danger come from in our communities as well.
So we've got to collectively move beyond
typical superficial fitness and certainly beyond
superficial relationships in our homes & communities.
We've got to learn to truly understand ourselves
and others from the inside out ie. at the visceral
(deep neurophysiological- spiritual) level.
Some other Simple Truths~
We don’t age Chronologically ~we age Biologically
and can cause others to also age faster
due to how our Biography (A.C.E./PTSD)
{Adverse Childhood Experiences-
and/or Attachment Trauma}
conditions our Neurophysiology
to interpret and experience stress.
{Aging can be slowed & in ways reversed}
How is your home & community contributing
to your health... or stress and illness?
For some, if not many, being in our body
has been painful. We've felt judged,
inadequate, uncomfortable, unsafe
even picked on so we hide in the safe haven
of TV, Games, Substances or yes intellect
in spite of growing health challenges.
Which got exacerbated during COVID.
There may even have been abuse,
neglect, addictions, diseases or
other issues around you causing concerns
that made it difficult to start.
(I get it... I was an artist nerd
that had an eating disorder.)
What I can tell you is~
With training you can change & improve
yourself and your home environment.
(I teach you to train at home so you
~save Money & create more Time.)
AND
Training can, not only, be playful & fun
it doesn’t have to take a long time or
need a drill sergeant mentality.
Compassion is the key!
We build our homes then our homes build us.
Winston Churchill- (actually describing epigenetics)

Muscle Memory & knowing by Heart -aka
Unconscious Competence is due to Nerves.
There are 10X times the signal
from your muscles to your brain as

Even your Heart is 65% neuronal tissue
-another reason you feel before you think.

your muscles as mediums to train your mind.

Some favorite books -

Testosterone doesn't make men more aggressive.
It makes people more of what they already are.
