It breaks my heart when people come to me and tell me they're burnt out from doing inner work. Healing from childhood trauma should be boring. It should give you life, resiliency and a new capacity to move through life's stresses with more ease. One of my teacher's Dr. Stephen Terrell says 'the greater the need for survival, the higher the cost of business, the less resources available for learning, relationships and personal growth.' If healthcare professionals and online teachers aren't working through a trauma trained lense it's highly likely folks could be retraumatized or need those old survival strategies more if the body and brain system doesn't have the capacity to hold everything. If healing childhood trauma isn't boring it tends to be overwhelming and too much for a system that's already in survival mode. In this video I unpack why healing from childhood trauma should be boring. Our nervous systems need a bigger container to process stress in a healthy way so many good humans get caught up in the paradigm of our 'problem - solution' healthcare system but it doesn't have to be that way.
