Today I talk about trauma and how it can affect both parents and children,

and why birth trauma led me into energy work after my oldest son's anger noticeably decreased following a demonstration that cleared energy around our traumatic pregnancy and emergency C-section/NICU experience.

I explain my personal distinction between “big T” and “little T” trauma, emphasizing that some trauma isn’t recognized as such until later.

I describe how trauma often shows up as an incomplete freeze (or fight/flight) cycle and use a “hula hoop” image to illustrate how triggers can reactivate stuck trauma energy,

then share how I energetically complete the cycle, clear triggers, and gently shift beliefs.

Using examples (a child bitten by a puppy and my youngest Bryson’s beach/boat trauma), I explain that this work clears energy without retelling or reliving the event.
