What does Trauma Sensitive Mindfulness actually mean?

Traumatic events that shake us to the core leave a lasting imprint. For some this can be debilitating. Trauma can affect the body and the mind for decades prior to an event.

Implicit memories are memories of the trauma that we don't consciously realize we have. But they can abide in the mind and the nervous system, putting a negative filter on how we experience life. These memories can become stuck and cause us to form maladaptive patterns as ways to cope.

Trauma Sensitive Mindfulness is not a cure for trauma. It is more a way of working with an individual that doesn't re traumatize them. It makes the enormous benefits of Mindfulness more available to people carrying trauma and this may have a therapeutic effect.

Mindfulness may help soften the filter of trauma so one can see things as they really are.

One-to-One mindfulness practice, such as working with a mindfulness teacher or coach, can offer several benefits:

1. Personalized guidance: 

When practicing mindfulness with a teacher or coach, they can provide individualized guidance and support tailored to your specific needs and goals. They can offer personalized suggestions and techniques to help you deepen your practice and address any challenges you may encounter.

2. Accountability:

Working one-to-one with a mindfulness teacher can help create a sense of accountability. Regular check-ins and sessions can motivate you to stay committed to your practice by establishing a routine and helping you stay on track with your goals.

3. Deeper understanding:

A mindfulness teacher can offer insights and perspectives on the practice that you may not have considered on your own. They can help you gain a deeper understanding of mindfulness principles, techniques, and the underlying philosophy, enhancing your overall experience and growth.

4. Resolving challenges:

If you encounter difficulties or challenging experiences during your mindfulness practice, a one-to-one setting allows you to discuss these issues with an experienced teacher who can provide guidance, support, and techniques to help you navigate and overcome them.

5. Personal growth and transformation:

One-to-one mindfulness practice can facilitate a more profound personal growth journey. The focused attention and guidance provided by a teacher can help you develop insights, nurture self-awareness, and cultivate skills for managing stress, improving well-being, and living more fully in the present moment.

Remember that finding a qualified mindfulness teacher or coach is crucial for a positive and effective one-to-one practice experience.
