<p dir="ltr">This Halloween, Darin turns the spotlight from ghosts and goblins to the real ones that haunt us — the memories, wounds, and traumas stored deep within our bodies and minds.<br> In this cinematic special, he revisits some of the most powerful guests from past SuperLife episodes — Lori Woodley, Kyle Nicolaides, Dr. Aimee Apigian, Jules Schroeder, Maya Raichoora, Dr. Max Butterfield, Dr. Jess Stavale, Dani Fontaine, and Josh Macin — weaving together a spellbinding journey through emotional alchemy, mind-body science, and spiritual restoration.</p> <p dir="ltr">From the fascia to the endocannabinoid system, from visualization to detoxification, Darin explores how healing trauma is not about running from darkness but transmuting it into light. This episode is a hauntingly beautiful reminder that acknowledging our pain can become the path to our deepest purpose.</p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <hr> <p> </p> <h3 dir="ltr">What You'll Learn in This Episode</h3> <p dir="ltr"><strong>[00:00]</strong> Welcome to SuperLife — igniting possibilities for a better, sovereign world<br> <strong>[00:00:32]</strong> Sponsor: EnergyBits — the most concentrated whole-food nutrition on Earth<br> <strong>[00:01:51]</strong> Happy Halloween — Darin introduces the real "ghosts" we carry within us<br> <strong>[00:02:11]</strong> What trauma really is and why it's stored in the body, not just the mind<br> <strong>[00:03:29]</strong> The science behind stored trauma — how fascia, endocannabinoids, and cells hold the score<br> <strong>[00:04:14]</strong> Why facing trauma is the path to freedom — transmuting pain into purpose<br> <strong>[00:04:50]</strong> Revisiting powerful past guests with new insight and wisdom<br> <strong>[00:05:09]</strong> The integration principle — why real healing must unite mind, body, and biology<br> <strong>[00:05:36]</strong> Practical techniques you can use today: breathwork, somatic release, visualization<br> <strong>[00:05:58]</strong> How art and creativity can release stored trauma and regulate emotions<br> <strong>[00:06:35]</strong> Facing our ghosts: turning pain into our most heroic journey<br> <strong>[00:07:04]</strong> Guest highlight – Lori Woodley: "Crossing Backwards" and breaking free from autopilot<br> <strong>[00:08:24]</strong> The exercise that reveals how easily we live on autopilot — and how to disrupt it<br> <strong>[00:09:30]</strong> Two steps forward: how small, conscious actions shift your entire life<br> <strong>[00:11:29]</strong> Learning to ask for what you truly need — the root of emotional intelligence<br> <strong>[00:12:51]</strong> Guest highlight – Kyle Nicolaides: Finding purpose through depression<br> <strong>[00:13:12]</strong> Depression as initiation — the "dead decade" that led to divine reconnection<br> <strong>[00:16:01]</strong> Realizing depression isn't the enemy — it's a sacred messenger<br> <strong>[00:17:05]</strong> The power of reframing suffering as wisdom waiting to be revealed<br> <strong>[00:17:30]</strong> Guest highlight – Dr. Aimee Apigian: Trauma, biology, and building inner safety<br> <strong>[00:18:10]</strong> The three layers of trauma repair: mind, body, and biology<br> <strong>[00:19:30]</strong> Taking responsibility for your healing — no one can regulate you but you<br> <strong>[00:20:21]</strong> Trauma bonds and projections — how unhealed pain shapes relationships<br> <strong>[00:21:15]</strong> Guest highlight – Jules Schroeder: Start with the breath<br> <strong>[00:21:44]</strong> The "Perfect Breath" — 4 seconds in, 6 seconds out through the nose<br> <strong>[00:22:27]</strong> How 7.5 hours of mindful breathing can reprogram your nervous system<br> <strong>[00:23:36]</strong> Removing stress before adding more — foundational calm before growth<br> <strong>[00:24:07]</strong> Sponsor: Our Place Cookware — eliminating toxins from your kitchen<br> <strong>[00:27:00]</strong> Guest highlight – Maya Raichoora: Visualization as a rewiring tool for trauma<br> <strong>[00:27:54]</strong> Five visualization techniques: outcome, process, creative, negative, explorative<br> <strong>[00:29:18]</strong> The neuroscience of imagery — how your body reacts to imagined experience<br> <strong>[00:31:38]</strong> Lemon exercise — proving your mind and body are one<br> <strong>[00:33:13]</strong> Using visualization for emotional resilience, performance, and healing<br> <strong>[00:34:33]</strong> Explorative visualization — channeling creativity like Einstein or Disney<br> <strong>[00:35:41]</strong> Guest highlight – Dr. Max Butterfield: Emotional regulation and relationships<br> <strong>[00:36:10]</strong> The Gottman principles — why contempt destroys relationships<br> <strong>[00:37:15]</strong> Why emotional regulation matters more than compatibility<br> <strong>[00:38:02]</strong> The modern self-regulation crisis — how disconnection fuels chaos<br> <strong>[00:39:01]</strong> Guest highlight – Dr. Jess Stavale: Fascia — the body's emotiona
