In our show, we will resume our conversation with our host Dr. Graham Taylor and his guest Sarah Marikos around the topic of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). In our last episode, we discussed how identifying ACEs shifts the conversation around behavior and decision making to something deeper, that there is meaning behind the things we do, the thoughts we have, the decisions we make. That adverse childhood experiences are common, research showing that two out of three US adults have experiences at least one adverse childhood experience. We named the various adversities that contribute to adverse effects and how traumas, like emotional neglect, can be subtle and still cause very real challenges in our lives. We’ll resume our talk today by discussing the different health conditions caused by ACEs and toxic stress, and how our emotional experiences affect our physical immune system.
