With Mother's Day approaching I'm re-releasing a special episode with psychologist and trauma expert Dr. Arielle Schwartz.

In this episode, Monique Koven and Dr. Arielle Schwartz discuss the complexities of Mother's Day and the impact it can have on individuals with trauma. They explore the range of emotions that can arise, including happiness, sadness, guilt, and shame. They emphasize the importance of self-compassion and attending to the sacred wounds of the past. They also discuss the role of attachment and how our experiences with our mothers shape our sense of self. The conversation highlights the healing potential of acknowledging and validating our feelings and offering love and compassion to ourselves.

 Mother's Day can bring up a range of complex emotions for individuals with trauma, including happiness, sadness, guilt, and shame.
 It is important to practice self-compassion and attend to the sacred wounds of the past.
 Our experiences with our mothers shape our sense of self and can lead to feelings of responsibility and confusion.
 Acknowledging and validating our feelings is essential for healing and creating space for self-love and compassion.
 Attachment plays a significant role in our relationship with our mothers and our ability to offer love and compassion to ourselves.


 The Range of Emotions on Mother's Day
 Practicing Self-Compassion and Healing Sacred Wounds


 "Mother's Day is approaching, we start to feel this almost as countdown of a complexity of feelings."

 "We learn to push down our authentic feelings because somebody else gave us this message that they couldn't handle our feelings."

 "What is true for you is welcome here now."

Grateful for Dr. Arielle Schwartz enormous contribution to the work of Trauma Recovery and Healing.

Mother's Day ~ Attending To Our Sacred Wounds With Dr. Arielle Schwartz

interview with out intro alison cook and I

Today's conversation I am joined with author and psychologist Dr. Alison Cook. We talk about healing trauma, spiritual bypassing and the need for holistic and emotionally safe trauma informed care and education in our faith communities.
Many who have experienced trauma as children have learned to adapt by disconnecting from their emotions & feelings. Faith communities need to be emotionally healthy places where compassion and empathy is extended to those suffering not only spiritually but emotionally as well. Alison shares the importance of not denying one’s emotional experience, and instead to begin to gently turn towards them with curiosity and compassion.
