Description
Healing from Trauma: Finding Peace and Renewal
Trauma is a psychological and emotional response to an event or experience that overwhelms a person's ability to cope. It can lead to symptoms such as hyperarousal, flashbacks, avoidance behaviors, and physical health issues like chronic pain and inflammation.
It has a profound impact on the brain and body, triggering a heightened stress response, disrupting neural connections, and leading to physical and mental health issues.
It also profoundly impacts our lives, shaping our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. The pain of the past can seep into our present, making it difficult to find peace and renewal within ourselves.
In this episode, we'll get into how healing is possible, and by understanding its nature, identifying its symptoms, and seeking treatment, we can begin the journey toward healing, self-compassion, and personal growth.
