The Vital Point: Pathways To Integration

You Can't Stop the Waves: Trauma Healing Explained (Ep 121)


Listen Later

In this solo episode, Jonathan Schecter dives deep into a metaphor that’s transformed his understanding of trauma: surfing the waves of life. With a grounding somatic practice to begin, he guides you through what it really means to build resilience not by avoiding pain, but by increasing your capacity to meet it.

Whether you're new to healing or have been walking the path for years, this episode offers insight into why the goal isn't to stop the waves of emotion, challenge, or discomfort, but to learn how to ride them skillfully.

Join Jonathan as he explores:

  • Why trauma recovery is about expanding your container, not shrinking your world

  • How titration and pacing protect against re-traumatization

  • The power of community and consistent practice

  • Tools and practices that build emotional and nervous system resilience

💫 Includes a somatic meditation to reconnect with your body.
