Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

According to the National Child Traumatic Stress Network, 78 percent of children reported more than one traumatic experience before five years of age. (https://www.nctsn.org/) 

Unresolved childhood trauma often manifests in adulthood as multiple health problems, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and a lack of direction. 

Trauma is a wide umbrella with some events being more obvious than others. Examples of trauma include the death of a loved one, rape, physical, mental, or emotional abuse, divorce, a breakup, bullying, natural disasters, accidents, war, and the list goes on. 

Traumas cause a loop in the brain to be formed that makes you feel unsafe. Without healing and “resetting” your brain’s thought waves, you could be caught in a subconscious fight, flight, or freeze situation. 

Don Wood, PhD, is the author of two top selling books, Emotional Concussions and You Must Be Out of Your Mind. He is the Founder & CEO of the Inspired Performance Institute, and creator of the patented TIPP method. 

TIPP is a cutting-edge method inspired and developed through the newest developments in neuroscience and designed to clear away the effects of disturbing or traumatic events, repurpose old patterns and set the individual’s mind up for peak performance. 

Dr. Don’s TIPP method helps reboot the brain’s stuck thought patterns. This makes it possible to stop chronic negative thought loops (AKA limbic loops), and not let the pain of past trauma continue to affect you today.
