Deep dives

Healing trauma without medication

Healing trauma without medication is possible by focusing on the body and the nervous system. Settling the nervous system through practices like breath work, meditation, or yoga is crucial for starting the healing process. It is important to befriend our bodies, tune in to physical sensations, and do body scans to understand how external situations affect us. By releasing tension and trauma from the body, we can prevent it from manifesting as physical pain or chronic illness. Healing trauma is a lengthy process that requires commitment and consistency in engaging in nervous system restoration practices.
