Healing Trauma: What it Really Takes to Liberate your Brilliance

I recently discovered an amazing blog entry while perusing The Integral Approach to Psychotherapy regarding the importance of resolving trauma within our histories, within our hearts, souls, minds and lives.  The damage that can be done by ignoring or continually banishing our "unwanted" emotions from the pain of our past, is greater than that which can be overcome by scraping the surface or ridding ourselves from the memories, or even from the effects of the scars.  The more we try to escape, the deeper we become entrenched within and shackled onto our pain; and the more difficult it will be to overcome.  Yet for those who are committed, there is another side to your story- and a light within that can shine so brilliantly beyond anything you ever thought possible. Patience is key, but courage and faith, and hope for something better will light a fire that you can follow with the help of a trusted other. Whether that other is a psychotherapist, a guide, a spiritual coach, or other figure in your life that you trust with your "unwanted" parts/emotions. See an excerpt below, and please visit this webpage and see the brilliance for yourself.

The most exciting part of the human experience is the creative potential that awaits in the center of our wounds waiting to be accessed and embodied. 

If we choose to stay unconscious and unaware of our wounds and how they affect our present lives, we remain handicapped by the fog of projection and the cognitive distortions of our early experiences. However, If we choose to lean into our pain for the sake of transformation and address our wounds directly, we have the potential to live lives beyond what you can currently imagine where joy, love and peace are the primary reality we experience. 

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” ― C.G. Jung
