S1 Ep137: Episode 137 - You Are Not Your Trauma Responses

So often we walk through life reacting and responding to situations, with no idea that it's not just "the way we are". Trauma responses are ways of behaving that are created and informed by the trauma we experienced as we grew. It's important to note that trauma need not be only Capital T Trauma like severe abuse and neglect. Children sustain trauma by not being heard or seen, by being criticized or ignored, by being told that they had to keep secrets, by being raised in chaos with emotionally disregulated people, etc. There are many experiences that shape how we respond to life. Healing and growth are possible when we realize that we are NOT our trauma responses. We are so much bigger than these old patterns that can only define us until we wake up. Join me today for an eye opening discussion on a few different trauma responses and the ways in which we can become aware of the ways we are triggered, and find our way back to ourselves.
