Emotional Trauma Patterns
Everyone comes from a dysfunctional family unless you grew up in a magic kingdom with angels as parents. We can’t escape differences of opinion while developing personalities as children. Nothing that happened during childhood was your fault, and you did not create events to make your parents angry, abusive, or uncaring.
Children are sponges gathering knowledge and absorbing their environment from 0 to 10. It’s here that your foundational consciousness develops. Your parent’s beliefs essentially program you, along with clergy, fashion magazines, friends, and other adults, until consciously changed at some point in adulthood. Fear rises from thinking, “I’m not enough,” and “No one loves me.” Children internalize feelings until taught how to express how they feel later in life.
Different Degrees of Emotional Trauma Affect Children
- Yelling, shouting, and slamming doors
- Cigarette smoke and pot smoke
- All forms of punishment
- Left alone as a child
- Narcissistic mother
- Absent Mother or Father
- Alcoholic father
Everything learned sinks into the subconscious mind, and becomes your foundational consciousness and, over time, becomes your guide in life. Emotions and over-thinking wind the mind into a frenzy of emotional stories. To live happily, successfully, and spiritually, childhood conditioning needs reprogramming. Otherwise, you live from outdated beliefs about life and yourself. Re-pattern the mind so you live in balance on your spiritual journey. Now more so than ever, we are learning how vital childhood experiences are to peace of mind.

Trauma is tightly wound in the body due to ongoing fear, and when lovingly touched, the nervous system lashes out with kicks or moans. It’s common for this to happen, and helpful to allow repressed trauma to surface. Address the body with a skilled massage or cranial/sacral therapist who can unwind the body of anxiety and stress

Ways to Recover From Emotional Trauma
Recovering from emotional trauma takes time and effort, and it’s helpful to start a journal and embark on creative projects. The best remedy to recover from emotional trauma is to work through the subconscious patterns to release past experiences and to talk about emotional pain but do not judge anything. Keep a neutral mind.
Think of the subconscious mind like the cache on your computer. Clearing the cache frees up space. So does energy healing work in the subconscious, it frees up the outdated patterns of fear, hurt, and anger. Move beyond past wounds and align with your Soul.
