Deep dives

The Transformation of Trauma

Transforming trauma involves a comprehensive approach that necessitates the understanding of the stages involved in healing. The initial phase focuses on sharing experiences in totality, where individuals must express not only the events of their trauma but also the emotions and physical sensations associated with it. This deep sharing helps in embodying the experience rather than merely recounting it, allowing the part of oneself that holds trauma to release it in a safe environment. Through this process, participants learn the importance of witnessing their traumatic experiences, as trauma thrives in isolation, and sharing fosters connection and healing.
