#158 - Lessons from Past Trauma

Going Back to Go Forward

Time is not linear. At least, not the felt sense of time. And when a crisis shocks the system, complex things can happen to the perception of time. Shock has the potential to bring us over the “window of tolerance” as described by Dan Siegel, and into the realm of trauma. When this happens, we need to later go back with resources and spaciousness to move through those experiences. In this episode, we take you on an experiential journey through embodied time in the wake of a trauma. You can expect the entertainment and nourishment of a powerful, true story, as well as some practical breathwork and somatic tools to gently move through your own difficult memories. Here we go.

In this episode:

Dr. Kris Radcliff, from Atlanticare ICU, who graciously and mindfully consulted with our family during the first hours following Archer’s accident.

Davis Barsby, a lifelong family friend who was with Archer when Archer had his accident. That summer, Davis was working as both head lifeguard and assistant manager at the Cape May Beach Club.

Jessica Dibb, the Founder, Spiritual Director, and Principal Teacher of Inspiration Consciousness School, co-Director of the Global Professional Breathwork Alliance and Trustee for the Blink of an Eye 501(c)(3), was whom Louise called upon for intuition and breath-work insight about Archer’s lung capacity.
