In this episode of Bonded, Dr. Patty and Lizzie sit down with one of Patty’s most influential teachers and mentors, Trish Magyari, MS, LCPC, C-IAYT—a mindfulness and trauma specialist, MBSR teacher, and researcher whose work has touched countless lives.

Trish shares her own story of turning to mindfulness during a period of illness and pain, and how practices like Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) became a lifeline. She opens up about navigating perfectionism, early trauma, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue—and how mindfulness helped her not only cope, but reconnect with her body in a radically different way.

Together, we explore:

• How MBSR supports people living with chronic pain, autoimmune illness, and trauma
• Why mindfulness offers relief even when the body feels like the last place you want to turn
• The importance of trauma-sensitive mindfulness and going at your own pace
• Practical ways to begin, including connecting with nature as a gentle doorway into awareness
• Why “slower is faster” when it comes to healing and self-compassion

If you’ve ever felt at odds with your body—or longed for a kinder, more supportive way to live with pain, stress, or trauma—this conversation is full of wisdom, warmth, and hope.
