There are so many different types of trauma that we can all experience in life. What many don’t know is how these experiences actually affect the brain. In this episode I explain exactly what parts of the brain are affected, as well as how they are affected both during and after trauma. Many of us who have experienced trauma go on to have symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and although I can’t diagnose anyone with PTSD, I share about what it is and how it manifests itself in our lives in this episode. My hope is that this episode will allow you to better understand your own brain as well as the brains of other people who have experienced trauma and be able to show compassion for those working through the many ways that it can affect their lives.
