Do you feel broken, fragmented, and unlike yourself? When we experience trauma, it fragments us into parts and makes us feel not whole. This is the body's reaction to trauma and overwhelm, but we are not only our bodies. In this episode, I interview Kimberly Ward, cofounder of the Transpersonal Energy Healing Therapy. Kim explains the effects of trauma and how to reconnect with our essential self who was lost in our trauma process.

Have you ever felt like you just can't say no, even when you know you should? Do you often put others' needs before your own, even if it's detrimental to your well-being? If so, you may be experiencing the Enduring pattern, as described by Steven Kessler. Individuals with this pattern develop coping mechanisms to endure pain and suffering, often at their own expense. While this pattern can present challenges, it can also lead to deep empathy and compassion for others. By developing self-awareness and learning to set healthy boundaries, individuals with a Enduring pattern can find greater balance and self-care in their lives.

🌟 Trauma Stored in the Body 🌟

I dive into a topic that's deeply important but often overlooked: trauma stored in the body.

Many of us have experienced moments in our lives that left a lasting impact, and sometimes that impact is not just emotional but physical as well. Trauma can become lodged in our bodies, manifesting as tension, pain, or discomfort.

It's essential to acknowledge that our bodies are incredible vessels, but they can also hold onto the past, trapping emotions and memories within. This stored trauma can affect our mental and physical health, making it crucial to address and release.

Here are a few steps to consider if you're on a journey of healing:

1️⃣ Self-Compassion: Start by acknowledging that it's okay to feel the way you do. Be kind to yourself and remember that healing is a process.

2️⃣ Mind-Body Connection: Explore practices like yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises. These can help you connect with your body and release pent-up tension.

3️⃣ Seek Support: Don't hesitate to reach out to a therapist, counselor, or support group. Talking about your experiences can be incredibly healing.

4️⃣ Movement and Release: Physical activities like dance, Tai Chi, or even going for a walk can help release stored trauma and promote well-being.

5️⃣ Art and Expression: Creativity can be a powerful outlet. Consider journaling, painting, or any other form of expression that resonates with you.

Remember, healing is a unique journey for everyone. What works for one person may not work for another. The most important thing is to listen to your body and mind, and seek the support and tools that help you on your path toward healing and growth.

🌟 From Triggered to Tranquil🌟

I wanted to share a personal journey with all of you. Life can throw curveballs at us, and sometimes we find ourselves feeling triggered, overwhelmed, and stressed. 😫

But guess what? ✨ Change is possible, and transformation is real! 🚀

I've been on a path to inner peace and tranquility, and it's been nothing short of amazing. 🧘‍♀️ Through self-reflection, mindfulness, and surrounding myself with positivity, I've learned that it's possible to shift from feeling triggered to finding a deep sense of tranquility within.

It's about recognizing our triggers, understanding our emotions, and choosing to respond rather than react. 🧡

Here are a few things that have helped me along the way:

🌿 Daily meditation to center my mind and find calm.

📚 Reading and learning about emotional intelligence.

🚶‍♀️ Taking walks in nature to reconnect with the world around me.

🙏 Practicing gratitude to appreciate the beauty in every day.

Remember, we're all works in progress, and it's okay to have moments of vulnerability. 🤗 But it's also empowering to know that we have the ability to transform ourselves and our reactions.

If you're on a similar journey or have any tips to share, I'd love to hear from you in the comments! Let's inspire each other to cultivate more tranquility in our lives. 🌈 Join the SELF-HEAL Movement at and take the first step towards a brighter, happier future.
