Lotus Flower

Tools to Release Trauma

Three weeks have passed since the fires started. During this time, our community has experienced the full range of human emotion. Some of us were evacuated. Some of us lost our homes. As a community, we have experienced both individual and collective trauma. Here at Flourish Integrative Health, we would like to share the tools and resources we have from not only our respective medical educations and training but also what we are implementing for ourselves as we move into this next stage of recovery and healing.

5 Steps to Release Trauma

“The lotus flower blooms most beautifully from the deepest and thickest mud”
Like a lotus, we too can re-emerge and bloom in the most unlikely conditions. From the ash and destruction, we humans can tap into both ancient and modern techniques to help release trauma and truly begin the healing process. These five steps are tools that have been effective for us during this traumatic time.
  1. Shake your body and sigh.
  2. 4/7/8 breath from Dr. Andrew Weil, leader in Integrative Medicine. Click here to view the health benefits and demonstration.
