Can Your Body Hold Trauma? The Subconscious & Healing | Andrew Scheim

Can unresolved trauma influence the physical body? What happens when we stop trying to think our way through healing and begin paying attention to what our bodies are telling us? In this episode of The Shaman Stories Podcast, Jeremy sits down with Andrew Scheim, an advanced bodywork practitioner, holistic health consultant, trauma resolution practitioner, and integrative wellness educator.With decades of experience working with the human body, Andrew has developed an approach that brings together bodywork, somatic practices, subconscious exploration, and wellness technologies. His journey began with music, where he discovered the importance of listening deeply, recognizing subtle patterns, and allowing something to unfold naturally. That same philosophy eventually became central to his work with the body.Throughout our conversation, Andrew shares his belief that physical tension, emotional experiences, and subconscious memories can be interconnected. We explore how his approach compares with shamanic healing, soul retrieval, ancestral work, and other methods of personal transformation. n this episode, we discuss: - The relationship between trauma, the subconscious mind, and the physical body - Why Andrew approaches bodywork like playing a musical instrument - How emotional experiences may influence physical tension and movement - Somatic practices, vibration plates, and rocking movements - The importance of feeling safe while exploring difficult experiences - Ho'oponopono and its spiritual approach to subconscious memories - Ancestral burdens, inherited patterns, and past-life beliefs - The Emotion Code, meridians, and energetic healing traditions - How Andrew uses movement and vibration in his personal wellness practice - PEMF technology and molecular hydrogen therapy - Gut health, nutrition, and the gut-brain connection - The importance of looking beyond a single healing modality - Why learning to understand your own body matters One of the most interesting parts of our conversation is Andrew's philosophy of following the body's lead.Rather than forcing an experience or trying to identify every emotional wound intellectually, he describes creating space for sensations, memories, and emotions to emerge naturally.We also discuss the similarities between his work and shamanic approaches to healing, including the exploration of ancestral patterns, soul retrieval, and unresolved emotional experiences.Andrew shares practical ideas for becoming more aware of your body, along with his perspectives on movement, self-care, and building a personalized wellness routine.We also explore the importance of integrating different approaches to health rather than believing that conventional medicine, holistic wellness, or spiritual healing must exist separately. Whether you're interested in trauma healing, somatic practices, energy work, subconscious patterns, or holistic wellness, this conversation offers an unconventional perspective on the relationship between mind, body, and spirit.
