Navigating the Healing Journey: Confronting Complex Trauma Through Routine, Reflection, and Community Support

Send us a Text Message.

Wrestling with complex PTSD following a motorcycle accident, I've found solace and strength in the simple, everyday routines. I've experienced a remarkable shift in my coping mechanism, embracing self-care habits like dressing up, exercising, and maintaining a cleaner home. I've managed to break the cycle of binge-watching TV and neglecting my daily routines. Tune in, as I unravel the process of retraining the nervous system to foster safety and reduce triggers.
Could walking down memory lane serve as a healing path? A casual stroll to a local coffee shop sparked a wave of nostalgia that connected me with my husband in a unique way. We reminisce about the simpler days of childhood and discuss the challenging complexities of childhood trauma. Join us as we explore how one can find beauty in the past and how connecting with others who share similar experiences can catalyze healing.
Finally, we delve into the transformative power of acknowledging personal growth. I share about the benefits of journaling as a tool for emotional processing and reflection. It's time to drop the weight of shame and guilt that tags along with past trauma. I'm here, ready to lend an ear whenever you need someone to listen. Let’s lean on the strength of community support, and together, navigate this beautiful yet complex journey towards healing.

This podcast is not meant to take the place of therapy, to diagnose or treat anyone. I have had therapy as recently as 2021 and found it very helpful. I am not a doctor. My only degree is in computers. I am simply sharing tools I have used to help myself grow to become an emotionally healthy person and sharing stories about my journey. Please seek medical help, as I did, if you are unable to cope with life and all that it brings.
