I KNOW A LOT OF YOU ARE HURTING RIGHT NOW.\n\xa0\nI SEE it in your messages.\xa0 I HEAR it when I talk to people.\xa0 And SOCIAL MEDIA and the NEWS are filled with stories every day of people struggling to stay afloat.\xa0\n\xa0\nSo often, we find ways to compromise as a means of living with our psychological pain and deep-seeded trauma.\xa0 Many of us have been doing it for years.\n\xa0\nBut collectively, I don\u2019t think we\u2019re doing enough HEALING.\xa0\xa0\n\xa0\nEspecially lately, as the pandemic has turned our entire world upside down.\xa0 We\u2019ve done our best to cope amid loved ones getting sick or dying, losing our jobs and identity, battling isolation, and an all-consuming fear of the future.\n\xa0\nThis week\u2019s guest, DR. FRANK ANDERSON is a psychiatrist who has extensively studied pain and trauma.\xa0 He has made it his lifelong quest to help others heal by integrating his knowledge of neuroscience and trauma treatment with Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy.\n\xa0\nHis new book, TRANSCENDING TRAUMA, explores a unique, compassionate, and evidence-based approach to resolving dissociative trauma.\xa0\n\xa0\nARE YOU READY TO HEAL?\n\xa0\nDo you want to regain the ability to CONNECT WITH and LOVE OTHERS on a deeper level?\n\xa0\nAre you ready to help others UNDERSTAND why they\u2019re traumatized and what you can do to help them?\n\xa0\nAside from the obvious BENEFITS of why it\u2019s important to heal, until you learn to do so and take active steps to heal from trauma, there\u2019s no way you can be the BEST POSSIBLE spouse, parent, friend, co-worker, or achieve the HIGHEST DEGREE OF SUCCESS in your career or personal life.\n\xa0\nTIME SPENT HEALING IS TIME WELL SPENT.\xa0\n\xa0\nAnd as Dr. Anderson reveals to us, it\u2019s a WORTHY INVESTMENT in ourselves.\n\nLearn more about your ad choices.
