Why is Trauma Such a Triggering Word?

So many of us feel that we have been traumatized deeply by some event, or multiple events. Or, we tend to swing to the other end of the spectrum and think we have no trauma. As I have researched trauma, one thing has become clear to me: trauma is a part of the human condition. Furthermore, we have a collective perceived notion that trauma is negative. And, certainly that makes sense. However, if we view it as a part of our human experience, then we can reframe it as an opportunity to heal and grow. The meaning of opportunity is a favorable juncture of circumstances. Within the word opportunity, is unity. In healing the circumstance, we gain unity. As Dr. Gabor Mate says, “To have trauma is to believe we are separate. Trauma is the antithesis of spirituality.”

Wow, there’s a statement to think on. But when we look at the experience of being human, we know ourselves to be social creatures. And when we recognize our traumatic situations in life, it was all in a situation where we either had true or perceived isolation. The good news is, we can change the narrative and heal from trauma.

We all have trauma to heal. All of the most loving parents, have some unresolved trauma. And we pass this on to our kids without knowing or meaning to. It can happen by disassociation, such as spacing out, not being attentive when a child needs it, etc. And not only can we heal trauma, but there is science showing that when a parent heals their trauma, it will positively impact the child. There are many ways to heal our trauma from releasing it through the body, doing mindful movement or therapy to name a few.

The ways in which I am helping people is through the releasing of energy and emotions in my Amma bodywork therapy, where the acupressure helps release stuck energy in the body. I also help people release the trauma through energy work I call my Transformation Coaching. In this, we move out layers of beliefs in the body that are trapped from earlier years, and familial beliefs that were passed down at birth. Doing this releasing allows you to stop having traumatic experiences that you haven’t been able to let go of. This also allows you to bring something in. If you are feeling stuck with work, finances, or relationships, then you know something needs to shift.

For those who are wanting this Transformation Coaching, I’m offering a deeply discounted opportunity for you to release and bring in the new. We are entering Scorpio season, where we will see more of our shadows surfacing. No better time to let go, process, and then move into our highest potential. From now through November 9th, I’m offering my Transformation Coaching for 2 sessions at $147. Normally I only offer a 4 package for $497. I am feeling called to help more people during this time. This is done over the phone or on Zoom, and I work with people all over the world. Are you curious about how this works and if it’s right for you? Let’s schedule a free Clarity Session, and I can share more.

I am also working with a group of practitioners in a 7 week workshop series: Trauma-Informed Embodied Approaches to Healing. Each week, we introduce another alternative form of healing trauma from November 5th through December. My workshop is: Root Causes and Solutions to Be Free of Trauma for Good. I look forward to serving you in releasing your trauma patterns, and to seeing you happier on your healing journey.

Warm wishes,
