I read the leading paragraph & graph from Chapter 8-Safety, of Judith Herman's book: Trauma & Recovery- The Aftermath of Violence-From Domestic Abuse to Political Terror, & share parts of my own recovery journey to help give real life examples of how these stages show up in a person's life! If you want some more background & context on this book & the main themes (at least as I learned about them in my 2020 trauma class) please go back & listen to episode 5 of this podcast: Healing During Quarantine-Sarah Ahn on Judith Herman, when I 1st introduced the power of this book for ANYONE that's recovering from trauma OR...cares about someone who is OR...simply wants to understand it better. This episode is a revisting to the book & its wisdom & where I feel like I am in my journey today! ☺️😌🙏🏼✨️✨️✨️ Thank you for listening! We do not have to suffer in silence or heal alone! Anywhere that you are on the process is valid & this stuff is hard to process, let alone talk about, so...if you've experienced trauma & are still here, in whatever stage of recovery- give yourself a big hug & keep going! Healing is a spiral!
