Trauma, Redefined
Your Trauma is YOUR Experience.
Comparing your experience to someone else’s definition of trauma is pointless and disempowering. Never judge your experience as less deserving of healing because you think it’s not as terrible as what happened to someone else.
Many of my clients have gotten stuck because they believe they don’t have “Big T” traumas but they have physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual symptoms that just won’t resolve. What is sometimes called “Little T trauma” is insidious- creating problematic programming, patterning, and beliefs that many people never address because “nothing awful happened to me.”
Only you decide whether or not your experience was traumatic. When you fully assume that power, you can begin to change your relationship with what happened.
