Healing Trauma — The 3 Most Essential Factors to Have in Place
Healing Trauma is Multifaceted
Stress-related illnesses, burnout, and complex trauma syndromes are more a norm than an exception these days, and they’re on the rise.
Stress turns into trauma and anchors in the nervous system when:
It exceeds our capacity to cope
There's a sense of loss of safety and powerlessness to change, defend against, or flee from the circumstances
One is met with a lack of empathy, compassion, and support
We enter a state of chronic high-alert mode
As more people become aware of this and recognize that trauma is a player in their ongoing challenges, the need for trauma-informed and trauma-skilled practitioners and coaches is on the rise.
While healing trauma is a multifaceted process that can’t be reduced to any one intervention or bound to a timeline, there are essential factors that need to be in place for everyone on the trauma-healing journey, no matter what.
