Understanding Trauma and Healing
This chapter explores the connection between trauma, psychology, and the body, emphasizing the role of agency in response to childhood experiences. It discusses the adaptability of the brain through neuroplasticity and how trauma responses are survival mechanisms, while also highlighting the importance of addressing current behaviors over uncovering suppressed memories. A three-step approach to healing is presented, focusing on recognizing, validating, and integrating emotions related to trauma to foster emotional closure and well-being.
