If the body is designed to heal, what happens when we finally create the conditions that allow it to do so?

In this deeply moving and empowering episode of The DNA Talks Podcast, Dr. Tracey Steady‑Hardcastle sits down with Dr. Zelina Medina, founder of Acuvida Acupuncture, to explore the powerful intersections of autoimmune disease, trauma, nervous system regulation, functional genomics, and root‑cause healing.

Diagnosed with lupus and kidney failure in her twenties, Dr. Medina shares her personal healing journey - one that led her beyond symptom management and into a holistic, integrative approach that blends science, Chinese medicine, lifestyle medicine, and spiritual healing. Now symptom‑free for over a decade, she helps patients heal chronic illness by addressing nervous system safety, unresolved trauma, inflammation, and individualized constitutional needs.

Together, Dr. Steady and Dr. Medina discuss how trauma becomes stored in the body, how genetics influence stress and inflammation responses, and why true healing requires addressing mind, body, and spirit.
