As we navigate through life, we are bound to experience various emotions. While some emotions are positive and uplifting, others can be more challenging to deal with. Emotional trauma is a topic that often goes unaddressed, despite its impact on our mental and physical well-being.

Emotional trauma can be caused by a range of experiences, such as childhood abuse, loss of a loved one, of something that you just can’t let go of, or a traumatic event. These experiences can leave a lasting impact on our emotional state leading to feelings of anxiety, depression, loss of self-worth and even physical ailments.
To heal from emotional trauma, it is important to address these feelings and letting go of them. (It’s the mental energy you spend dwelling on them, that impacts the body, that’s damaging.)

Energy healing is a powerful tool for addressing emotional trauma. By working with a healer or attending a healing clinic that offers natural healing therapies such as reiki/spiritual energy healing, individuals can release blocked energy and promote emotional healing. Reiki is a form of energy healing that involves laying hands on or above the body to promote relaxation and healing.

Another effective way to address emotional trauma is through meditation and mindfulness practices. Meditation allows us to quiet our minds and focus on the present moment, helping us to release negative emotions and find inner peace. Mindfulness, on the other hand, encourages us to be fully present and aware of our emotions, allowing us to process and move through them in a healthy way. Another little tip is to learn to get control of your barking dog – that little voice in your head that’s long, winding, whinging and is always negative!

Stress management techniques are also essential for addressing emotional trauma. By learning how to manage stress through practices such as deep abdominal breathing, or exercise, individuals can reduce their emotional reactivity and promote overall well-being. Integrative medicine, which combines conventional and alternative therapies, can also be helpful in addressing emotional trauma by treating the body and mind.

Remember, it is important to seek support if needed and to prioritise self-care and healing to move forward from emotional trauma and live a fulfilling life. By shifting our mindset from victim to survivor we shift the perspective. We empower ourselves to take control of our emotions and our healing journey. Life does not happen to us, it happens through us, and by facing our emotional traumas head-on, and practicing forgiveness, we can emerge stronger and more resilient than ever before. Remember, you are not defined by your past experiences, but by how you choose to overcome them. Embrace your inner survivor and let the healing begin.

In conclusion, emotional trauma is a common experience that can have a lasting impact on our lives. But it doesn’t need too. By utilising practices such as energy healing, meditation, mindfulness, and stress management techniques, individuals can begin the healing process and move towards a place of emotional well-being. Of equanimity.
