Every time I open Instagram these days, the word ‘trauma’ comes in front of me at least once. In Pop Psychology, many inconveniences are termed as traumatising and a host of responses are termed as trauma responses. We need to understand that not every distress is trauma and not every response is a trauma response.
I have Shini Sahni with me who is a mental well-being and mental fitness coach. She has worked as a psychotherapist for over 17 years. Shini is the founder of Nu-Re Wellness which focuses on preventive mental healthcare.
She will tell us-
-What trauma is and what it’s not
-How overusing the term impacts the society negatively
-What is childhood trauma
-How to recognize trauma in kids
-Why we shouldn’t worry unnecessarily about traumatising our kids
-What are some better ways of describing feelings which are not trauma
