4. Unraveling Trauma: Diving into the Small and Big Moments, Therapeutic Approaches and the Healing Power of Art and Meditation

Ever wondered about the small and big moments that shape our lives, and how they contribute to our trauma, whether it be capital T or lowercase t? Buckle up for an enlightening journey as we navigate the intricate landscape of trauma, with an emphasis on the seemingly insignificant moments that can have monumental impacts on our perception of control and safety. Together, we'll challenge the notion that only life-altering events carry the weight of trauma, and dig into how the minutiae of everyday life can just as powerfully sculpt our mental state.In this episode we look at:- How can we dislodge our brains when they become stuck in a trauma-induced state, you ask? - The transformative power of therapeutic approaches such as Internal Family Systems and EMDR therapy. -  How our understanding of trauma can inspire us to overhaul our thoughts and actions, sparking deep-seated change.- The healing power of art and meditation, and reflective practices that serve as lifelines to our past selves and assist in processing those traumatic experiences. Throughout this episode, we will draw on the theory that all events, past and present, are unfolding all at once, and learn to anchor ourselves in the now. So, tune in and let’s start the journey of understanding the lesser-known aspects of trauma and the incredible power of healing.WORK WITH ME: – Join Creating Space on Substack (essays, audio notes & creative field notes): https://jenniferhulley.substack.com – Go deeper through the Studio Circle (community chat, pop-up meetups & quarterly print / creative love letter): https://jenniferhulley.substack.com – Explore 1:1 Creative Mentorship (12-week partnership for creatives): https://www.jenniferhulley.com/coaching FIND ME ONLINE: Web: www.jenniferhulley.com Substack: www.jenniferhulley.substack.com Instagram: @jenniferhulley TikTok: @jenniferhulley Support the showContinue The Work:🌀 Book Guided Creation Session🎙️ Join the Substack Community Connect With Jenn:🌐 jenniferhulley.com📸 Instagram: @jenniferhulley🎵 TikTok: @jenniferhulley
