Question date: 02/12/2011Is there anything else we need to know about trauma?
Trauma is structured in the body. There are certain muscular holding patterns associated with various types of trauma. It is also a memory pattern that triggers a state of being. As one learns to change their state they can get relief from a stressful situation where a traumatic pattern has been activated, but they won't necessarily free the holding in their body. That will not be released until the emotions associated with that trauma are released in a way that directly correlates with that traumatizing experience. It is important that changing states isn't actually dissociating; becoming embodied is the goal of releasing trauma and moving from stress to relaxation. Many people use dissociation as their spiritual experience. There is nothing wrong with this except that it does nothing for becoming embodied, which is the powerful way to live.

Question date: 12/08/2011 Am I on the right path? I love to fully immerse myself in my spiritual life. As a way of expressing it to others, I am absorbed in writing and publicly reading poems about that life. There is very little I care about doing except to meditate or be quiet with myself, write poems and sometimes letters, and talk at length with friends about these things. But there are also many types of work and entertainment which I used to do, but am not interested in any longer. These are mostly engaging with family on various projects that range from maintaining property to watching movies to caring for my somewhat disabled brother. Maybe I was only pretending to be interested in such matters, or perhaps the scope of my attention has narrowed a great deal. At any rate, I feel guilty that I have lost interest in activities that are still a focus for people I love and who love me. I want to move forward to a life of meditation and poetry and talk, but feel I need to better express my directio n to my loved ones, so that they might better understand and help me achieve my wishes and needs, while I can still help them achieve theirs. Am I on the right path?
