Summary

What causes dissociation and depersonalization in highly sensitive individuals following childhood trauma and PTSD? In this week's episode we work on Increasing understanding of adult symptoms of trauma and neglect so that you can hold yourself in love, respect, and healing. In moving towards wholeness we let of of fear and any desperation or hopelessness. Integration is continuous when we are open, willing, and leaning into the light. These protective responses, while initially adaptive, can lead to a sense of fragmentation and alienation from the self. Healing requires a compassionate approach to reintegrating these fragmented parts, fostering a stronger connection to the body and a sense of internal harmony.
