Episode 6: Trauma And The Brain

The LightHouse Arabia
About this episode

“Trauma is not what happens to you, it’s what happens inside of you as a result of what happens to you”

-What is trauma,
-what are the different types of trauma, -what happens in childhood when we experience traumatic events

  • what can we do as parents to protect our kids from intergenerational trauma

I am doing these talks with a focus on childhood trauma (our childhood and our childrens)

This IG is one of many I want to do on this topic bc I really feel that the world is becoming more chaotic and the experience of life feels very traumatic for our nervous systems, unless we consciously are engaging in ways to heal, ground, soothe, and process all that we are encountering.
