Have you noticed that “trauma” has become a household word? For the majority of us, it was right in our own backyard during the past two pandemic years. Trauma affects each of us uniquely (to our mind, body or environment).

Oftentimes the remembrance of an unpleasant event can be reactivated or “triggered” by a current event because the memories that were buried can remain imprinted within our cell memory. Sometimes “ancestral trauma” may be reawakened that may parallel a significant event that occurred to one of our parents, grandparents or great-grandparents. For example, an event within a family’s history such as a stroke, heart attack, car accident or illness can be in our cell memory, too.

When the body receives a cut, the body works to repair the wound. If that wound is repeatedly injured, it may fester and cause pain. Once the re-injury (or block) is removed, healing resumes and the pain is eliminated. The same is true for mental or emotional wounds. If the system is blocked or continuously triggered, the mental wound festers causing pain.

Blocks can be removed through progressive technologies such as Deep Trauma Release Technique and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Release). EMDR Therapy is a non-invasive treatment using left/right brain-balancing music or a light bar to help reprocess negative memories. Deep Trauma Release Technique, developed by Dr. Mari Sammis, is based on the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) body clock and includes deep breath work, which assists release at the cellular level.
