Phobias and fears are a classic way of trauma disguising itself. This can be a fear of driving, fear of heights, fear of social situations…you name it. The fascinating thing about applying the Gentle Trauma Release Method© to fears and phobias is that its positive effects surpass the mere elimination of the phobia or fear. The whole outlook of the person changes and they get to enjoy life to the fullest once again. 

There is no doubt that living with chronic pain decreases one’s quality of life to a big extent. Simply put, when we hurt, we suffer. The Gentle Trauma Release Method© was born out of a desire to decrease human suffering inflicted by trauma. Interestingly, we’ve seen a lot of healing not just when it comes to emotional pain, but also in chronic, physical pain. 

Past traumatic events can have a huge impact on how a person feels about themselves…on their level of confidence and self-esteem. When the body carries trauma, it is way more difficult for a human being to access positive emotions – be it positive emotions they feel towards others or towards themselves. The Gentle Trauma Release Method© doesn’t work in a “rah-rah” way when it comes to building confidence in a person. Rather, it’s a process of gently increasing their self-esteem which leads to organically finding the confidence within.  

While things can be a bit more complex when it comes to weight management (achieving and maintaining a healthy weight), clients find their way out of these challenges way more effortlessly once trauma leaves their bodies for good. They might need additional strategies and habits to nurture a healthy weight (e.g. nutrition, sleep, and movement optimization). However, without healing the trauma, the best advice on nutrition, sleep or movement will not be enough. Why not start there?

Anxiety issues complicate the lives of many. As if the feeling of anxiousness wasn’t enough, a person suffering from anxiety issues typically organizes their life around their anxiety. This means that their enjoyment of life decreases rapidly over time. Their life becomes smaller and smaller and their engagement with life and the people in it becomes more and more restricted…because of their attempt to avoid at all costs whatever produces the anxiety in their life. Saying that releasing anxiety is a relief might just be an understatement…

 We have seen wonderful healing happen when applying the Gentle Trauma Release Method© to fairly difficult challenges such as body dysmorphia or skin cutting. These challenges are typically not approached from the trauma angle in the mainstream. And yet…once the root cause of the problem (trauma) is gone, improvement, relief, and restoration of the person’s well-being follow. 

Shock trauma is a one-off event that shakes a human being to the core. This can be a car accident, an event of public humiliation, getting a scary medical diagnosis, and the like. We are pleased to confirm that shock trauma is really easy to clear when using and applying the Gentle Trauma Release Method©.

The number of people who experienced abuse and assault at least once in their lifetime is staggering.  This category includes both one-off incidents, as well as prolonged, continuous, or ongoing exposure. It might be because of these experiences alone that almost everyone carries trauma in their system, to one extent or another. Once again, we couldn’t be happier to see the Gentle Trauma Release Method© bring hope, relief, and healing in this area as well,

Almost any human experience can be perceived as traumatic if certain criteria are met. This is especially the case in situations where one felt helpless, powerless, and with no way out.  Here are some more healing stories showcasing the soft but undeniable power of the Gentle Trauma Release Method©.
