    About this ebook

    Heal Trauma: How to Feel It, Unlock Patterns and Release It is a powerful companion for anyone wanting to work through past trauma. Trauma, when activated, can produce a wide range of symptoms including increased anxiety and depression, body pain, loss of memory and concentration, difficulties sleeping, flashbacks, nightmares, the desire to isolate socially and a wide range of intense feelings to name a few.It can also trigger a wide range of behaviours that are often bewildering to comprehend and to allay. Heal Trauma will serve as a guiding light in these dark times helping readers to understand the intense feelings they experience, and help them process and release emotion that has been triggered. The book will also help illuminate patterns of behaviour for instance, procrastination, perfectionism and obsessive rituals and link the pattern to past trauma.The vignettes on patterns will also guide the reader into taking action to undermine the pattern and find alternative ways to respond. The section on releasing trauma engages the reader through a process of creating a visual drawing that reflects their present experience of trauma activation and will help guide a process to release traumatic memory and associated embodied emotion.

    This book is intended to be medicine in the moment and a trusted resource throughout ones life, it is a book to pick up repeatedly when another layer of trauma surfaces and the desire to heal is strong.
