Healing the Trauma Mind
First Steps
First you need to recognize whether you are identified with your Trauma Mind or not identified with your Trauma Mind.
Trauma Mind-Identified: This is when you believe trauma that happened to you or your loved one means something about who you are. Your identify is now defined by the trauma.
Trauma Mind: Non-Identified: This is when we know our thoughts about ourselves are distorted or not a complete picture but we can not help our thoughts from happening.
Through the right kind of healing and treatment, you can recover motivation, perspective, and joy that you once had in your life.
Self-Healing
Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger post traumatic events. You can overcome these symptoms when you start to recognize when your mind is starting to make stories or narratives about these symptoms. Talking with a professional can also help you process through your feelings.
Treatment Recommendations
When you feel like some of your self-healing exercises are not working for you, then this is the time to consider therapy with a trauma-informed clinician or a trauma specialist.
