Doing the work to heal your early traumas can have a profoundly positive impact on your daily life and your business. Maira Holzmann is a body-oriented somatic therapist who specializes in helping people heal from their early traumas. Being in a state of constant urgency, working 60 hours a week, and feeling like you are never enough are all common traits for many of us as business owners, but these are also signs of unresolved trauma. Therapy and self-care can help us set up regulatory guardrails and learn to experience life in a new state of calm, resilience, and joy. When you begin to heal and make sustainable changes in your lifestyle and mindset, you will feel lasting changes in your physiology that will improve your health, your business, and your quality of life. Start your self-care journey today and find, savor, and prioritize the joy in your life!
Notes
🌹 Maira is a somatic therapist who helps people heal from the impacts of childhood trauma: somatic therapy gave her clients better, long-lasting results than cognitive-based or top-down therapy. 01:45
💔 Emotional neglect in childhood leads to poor self-worth and disconnection from emotions. 04:44
🔵 When you haven't healed your childhood trauma, you're constantly fighting against burnout, procrastination, and lack of joy: to be regulated is to feel calm and alert. 09:20
😊 Practicing joy spotting involves finding one moment that felt good or neutral in the day, replaying it in the mind, and learning to love the way it makes you feel. 14:02
👀 Trauma can make it hard to find joy, even in safe spaces like work: you have no access to joy if you're constantly trying to keep yourself safe in your environment. 19:39
✅ Reframing can help you gain resilience and regulation: the brain has to find a way of making sense of why our parents are treating us a certain way. 23:27
🤗 Healing work must happen with another person. 31:11
🔷 Jennifer recognizes that her reactions to her husband are often a reflection of unresolved issues within herself: don't be stuck in a victim mindset because you have a diagnosis - do the work to heal yourself. 34:28
❤️🩹 If you don't incorporate the body in healing, you're covering the wound with a band-aid without getting surgery: it takes commitment and devotion to do the work. 37:45
🍎 The high cost of maintaining survival physiology includes increased tension patterns in the body, and there's a high cost of doing business: doing one's work can also help improve immune and digestion systems. 41:21
