A growing number of neuroscientists are beginning to challenge one of the most popular ideas in trauma psychology:
What if healing is less about “releasing” trauma from the body…
and more about helping the nervous system safely learn flexibility again?
This recent paper published in Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience (2026) explores trauma through the lens of prediction, adaptation, uncertainty, and nervous-system regulation.
At SOMA, these questions deeply resonate with how we explore light, sound, altered states, relaxation, creativity, and emotional processing.
Not as escape.
But as experiences that may help the brain shift state safely.
