UNDERSTANDING LIFE EXPERIENCES-
A TRAUMA INFORMED PERSPECTIVE
When most people hear the word “trauma,” they imagine extreme events — major accidents, violence, or catastrophic experiences. But trauma isn’t always about life-or-death situations. Many moments, small or large, can shape how we feel in our bodies and navigate life
What Trauma Can Look Like
Our bodies remember what our minds may forget. Every experience leaves its mark — in our posture, energy, emotions, and the way we move through the world.
Trauma can show up in many ways : tension in the shoulders or jaw, shallow or irregular breathing, fatigue, racing thoughts, anxiety, anger, sadness, moments of doubt, feeling lost or disconnected, or difficulty sensing and trusting your own body and feelings.
​​​​​Examples of life experiences that can leave a mark :
• Feeling unsafe, unseen, or unheard as a child
• Emotional neglect or abandonment
• Bullying, exclusion, or judgment
• Chronic stress in work, family, or relationships
• Major life changes, like divorce, moving, or loss
• Accidents, sudden shocks, or illnesses
• Repeated disappointment, invalidation, or criticism
• Conflict, breakup, heartbreak, or betrayal
• Experiences of injustice or discrimination
• Any moment that leaves you feeling disconnected from your body, your emotions, or yourself
