On today's Warrior Wednesday we are talking all about identifying past traumas as we begin our healing journey! The past is not always in the past; we need to find we need to find what may still be active in our experience and impacting our current experience in terms of our relationships and mental health. Unresolved traumas lead to the compulsion to repeat them. Here is the R.A.I.N. method that we use to start identifying our past traumas.
R.A.I.N. by Dr. Jack Kornfield
Recognize- pause and notice what you are feeling
Accept/Acknowledge/Allow- whatever strong emotion you have in the moment
Investigate- start to investigate your internal experience through the S.I.F.T method (sensations, images, feelings, thoughts) by Daniel Siegel
Non-identification- don't let it define you, see it as just a memory
This strategy can apply to any of the traumas we will go over, start with the trauma having the biggest impact on you and use this strategy to start working through it.
"Heal your trauma so that you can't use it as an excuse to stay stuck in behavioral patterns that continue to hurt you."
