A trauma describes the phenomenon of having a lot of unpleasant, destructive energy within the own energetic and physical body stored.
Through bad experiences within the own life-experience, the mechanisms and conflicts which are stored in the DNA as well as conflicts in the collective emotions are the response. If the emotions are not digested the potential is strenghtened to create a subconcious destructive behaviour. This keeps a person from living their authentic truth and purpose in life.
To practise self-compassion and loving awareness you do give yourself the nourishing ground to build up a loving relationship again.
