Can you please explain how we actually go about healing the trauma itself. Like what actually needs to happen for our amygdala to rewire & for us to heal?
I totally need this. I found out I’m married to a narcissist. Thankfully we’re divorcing, but one thing I feel is close to torture is the ruminating. This video is a Godsend. Thank you!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@DrKateTruitt I tried it, I noticed how quiet and timid I was as 4 yr old! It was tricky getting a response. My inner child looked and listened and nodded more than anything. Perhaps an older inner child can share more with me.😊🌸
Could you please expand on this important common issue. Maybe make a video where one practices dealing with a common thought, with examples of what these thoughts are... Reducing the emotional attachment/reaction to these thoughts Maybe re framing these thoughts & how to do that. Choosing a physical action to maybe label then redirect our attention in a gentle,compassionate way that can be done anywhere eg. Imagine (face) havening and taking a deep breath or doing something soothing that doesn't require any particular object/location. Maybe a Havening video on "what if I can catch these triggering thoughts earlier" or addresses other aspects of these thoughts. Would love to see your take on this as this video is great,but journalling isn't for everyone and a 2nd video/deep dive would be extremely helpful.
This is such a helpful exercise. I am Looking forward to introducing my clients to it and sharing this video. Thank you as always for your generosity and wisdom
I don't often catch myself when my mind starts looping,can I put a post it reminder in the places it happens the most & practice doing it in that room when my mind is not looping,will that help me notice the looping more/associate that room with a calmer non-looping mind? The perceived threats was really interesting !
This is a brilliant idea! You're enhancing the connection with the trigger (the looping). This TikTok video may be helpful for a little more information about rumination/triggers (www.tiktok.com/@dr.katetruitt/video/7087724315243793707?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7003814401447740934). I'll have a longer YT video on this soon 🥰
@@DrKateTruitt I ended up practising on 2 repeating triggering thoughts & it has stuck,I'm more able to catch myself now & go directly in to recognising, stopping the thought & self-soothing with imaginary face havening if my hands aren't just washed/busy... before that thought leads to a downwards spiral ,not catching every single triggering thought but I'm managing to do it more often & more automatically now :D Practising with triggering thoughts made it stick more than visual reminders in rooms for me.
You're so beautiful, inside and out. I just bought your book and can't wait to read it. Thank you!
Awww 🥰 I'm honored. Thank you for your kind words. Sending you much strength and healing ❤️❤️🩹❤️

Yes. The next series will be about trauma and self-healing 🥰
