Why Ignoring Your Trauma May Be Making Everything Worse (and How to Heal It Gently)

What if the very act of avoiding your trauma is silently fueling your anxiety, stress, and even physical exhaustion?

If you're an HSP seeking peace, this episode offers a grounded path forward.

• Learn how to meet your trauma with love and create a safe, non-judgmental space for true emotional release.

• Explore a gentle yet profound method of self-inquiry that allows your wounded parts to question limiting beliefs and rediscover inner freedom.
