How does inherited family trauma influence individuals with CPTSD?

Self energy plays a pivotal role in the recovery from Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD), offering a pathway to healing that transcends traditional therapeutic approaches. Individuals with CPTSD often struggle with "Protective Part Shadowy Energy," which arises from coping mechanisms developed due to insecure childhood attachments and inherited family trauma. Tanner, an advocate for a holistic approach to CPTSD recovery, emphasizes the necessity of understanding and accessing Self Energy as an undamaged and integral part of healing. His perspective is shaped by recognizing that traumatic experiences often hinder the development of Self Energy, making its amplification and purification crucial. Additionally, Tanner highlights the importance of reclaiming Source Energy, stressing that the integration of both Self and Source energy is essential for achieving wholeness and liberation in CPTSD recovery.

“Dark energy is so incredibly misunderstood. Dark energy is light energy that has been co-opted and actually can be alchemized into the most potent form of source energy, love, and light.” — Tanner  [17:49]
