Stop Drinking and Start Living- The Feminine Way

Ep. #93 Honoring Trauma Part 1 of 3


Listen Later

Honoring Trauma  as a crucial step in healing your relationship to alcohol. 

In this 3 Part Series, we will explore what trauma is, how it is stored in the body, how you cope with trauma via stress/neurosis. 
Why this is inhibiting your ability for natural joy/pleasure and is contributing to creating a stronger desire for alcohol. 
What you can do from where you are and how to start letting joy in now through celebrating your accomplishments through pride! 

These episodes are jam packed. Make sure to listen to all 3 from the beginning. 

It is probably the most important content I have yet to create, so grab a pen and maybe listen a second time.

Trauma literally means wound.

 In this way, the trauma isn’t the even, it’s the result of the event, the unprocessed emotion.

In my opinion everyone has some trauma.

Some emotional wounds have a bigger impact on life depending on other factors of coping and resilience.

Trauma doesn’t have to come from a war or abuse, it can come from feelings of isolation, fear and being misunderstood or invalidated as a child.

Something as simple as being blamed for something you didn’t do, again and again, can leave a trauma wound, if the emotion is never validated.

Today you will learn:

What ways trauma shows up you.

How it has protected you.

How alcohol creates compounding trauma.

Why you have a hard time relaxing without alcohol.

How stress is a coping mechanism.

Why receiving from other, feeling pride and a sense of accomplishment is uncomfortable. 

The real reason you are listening to this show and alcohol is no longer working.

The safe, sacred and practical steps to take to honor your trauma and be an example of what’s possible for future generations.

Why you are unable to experience real joy and have to settle for synthetic joy and why it’s missing the mark.
