What people do not tell you about healing.

Another huge lesson for me has been the fascinating but brutally and intensively difficult part, your body remembers what your brain may not. For anybody who has ever been affected by sexual abuse, this can be an incredibly traumatic journey to navigate through. The link between the brain and the body where this kind of trauma occurs can be complex to say the least. Our brain can easily dissociate to protect us from extremely traumatic events, especially when this happens in childhood. What can become so confusing, is when feelings, pain and fear arise in your body without the logical explanation from your brain of why this is happening.
