This video is not done by a professional and should not be taken as professional advice.
One thing I have learned from my therapist is how trauma affects the brain. It has a profound effect on how we process other information. As trauma survivors we struggle to take in new information because our brains are simply too full to take in anything else. I hope this simple video will show you a tangible way of how our trauma filled brains react when they are triggered by memories and we try to fill them with new information.
Blessings,
Susan

Great video ! I am sending this to a counselor I know who specializes in trauma therapy.
Thank you. My therapist uses much better terms, but the visual came to my mind and made it simpler for me to understand.
