Episode 3: Utilizing the power of positive association to recover from trauma and make more money, with Rachel

Send us Fan MailEpisode 3: Rachel has recovered from an extreme trauma, and the only place constriction is still present is in her relationship to money. Can she utilize neuroscience and positive association to start rewiring around money–and claim the wealth she sees for herself?TW: Domestic Violence.Your takeaways: Trauma gets wired into the brain through the power of association. The brain can learn to associate even beautiful and positive things with threat–if there was a strong enough experience of harm connected to them.What gets us into PTSD is also what gets us back out: re-associating triggers with safety. We can unlink old trauma-based associations and form new associations through trauma specific therapy and/or coaching. Reassociating in small ways creates big impact over time. Reassociation tools: Keeping a list of wins/positive associations, using the power of smiling and laughter, playing the "What if...?" game. It's not our job to protect ourselves from ever experiencing trauma--our job is  to take care of our systems and their rehabilitation after trauma occurs. DV Resources: National Domestic Violence Hotline: 800-799-SAFERAINN: Rainn.org, 800-656-HOPE Victim Assistance Program, Los Angeles: https://www.helplacrimevictims.org/Domestic Violence Support Groups, these local organizations will have information: https://lacity.gov/residents/community-assistance/domestic-violence-resources Certificate in Domestic Violence Victim Advocacy: https://www.womensv.org/coercive-control-training-documenting-coercive-control EMDR: https://www.emdria.org/find-an-emdr-therapist/
