Heal From Trauma
What IS Trauma?
Trauma has become a bit of a buzzword in the last few years. It’s used to mean all sorts of things that it doesn’t REALLY mean.
If we’re doing to try to solve a problem, we need to understand what that problem is.
So what IS Trauma anyways?
Trauma is not a specific event.
Instead, it is how our bodies respond to an overwhelming experience. When we are unable to fully process and move though that experience, it can become stuck within us.
That “stuckness” is experienced in many different ways and can lead to significant illness and disease if left unreleased for too long.
At its core, Trauma is a name we give to the way in which our nervous system adapts to our environment.
When we experience trauma, it’s important to know that this is not a sign that we are broken.
It’s actually a sign that our bodies are doing exactly what they are designed to do!
Our bodies are wired for healing, and are capable of processing and releasing trauma over time. The lives we live in this modern world, however, often get in the way of that healing.
Our job at HopeGuide is to help you find your way back to your bodies natural healing so that you can experience the peace that you deserve!
