In Module 2 of the Journey to Empowerment program, we delve into the profound connection between trauma and the body’s physical responses. This module aims to equip participants with a deep understanding of how trauma manifests in the body and the importance of recognizing and respecting these signals as essential steps in the healing process.
Participants will explore the various types of trauma, including acute, chronic, complex, developmental, and secondary trauma. The module covers the different physical responses to trauma, such as the fight, flight, freeze, and fawn mechanisms. By understanding these responses, participants can better recognize symptoms like rapid heartbeat, muscle tension, immobility, and people-pleasing behaviors.
Through interactive activities and reflective exercises, participants will learn to interpret their body’s language and normalize stress and trauma responses. Techniques such as body scanning and meditation will be introduced to help manage and alleviate physical symptoms associated with trauma.
Join us in Module 2 to gain valuable insights and practical tools for listening to your body and fostering a deeper sense of self-awareness and healing.
