What if post-traumatic stress disorder, PTSD, is shaped not only by what happened, but by how much adaptation energy we had when it happened? In this episode, Thom explores stress, premature cognitive commitment, and why seemingly unrelated triggers can keep past overload alive in the nervous system.
Thom also explains how Vedic Meditation helps dissolve accumulated stress and responds to a follow-up question about past-life trauma and karma. Listen or watch for a grounded Vedic perspective on recovery, resilience, and liberation from past impressions.
