I Didn’t Know This About Trauma

I didn’t know this about Trauma… But it explained EVERYTHING.

Why I was so anxious.
Why I was so self-critical.
Why I was such a perfectionist.
Why I cared so much about what other people think.
Why I didn’t know who I was beyond this false self I put up
to hide from my own insignificance.

Since we teach what we most need to learn,
I wanted to get to the bottom of why I was falling into the same
Co-Dependent patterns in relationships,
despite being intelligent and successful…

Trauma, and my “Unintegrated Shadows” were the culprit.

So I got to work.
Studied Poly Vagal Theory.
Attachment Theory.
Shadow Work.
I even retired from Chiropractic to get my Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Certification.
(Back to school for another 3 years at the tender age of 45!!!)

What I discovered was ASTOUNDING.

It’s the reason why many of our students love their therapists and counsellors but complain
“it didn’t work for me”.
