What is Trauma and How it effects our lives?

• I believe that the ultimate cause of most human conflicts, physical imbalances and emotional discords is unresolved Trauma. 
• Trauma happens when we feel unsafe. Examples can include physical assault, an accident, injury or other events, which involved a threat to a person’s survival and if left unresolved, can have a profound impact on every area of our lives and relationships.
  The science of epigenetics demonstrates that Trauma creates biological change which can last for many generations.
  That means it can create physical and emotional change and affect not only our future but also the future of our children and grandchildren.  

• In most cases, the patterns and associations behind unresolved stressful situations are subconscious, which brings me back to the importance and significance of MAT process. What makes this process unique and different from other trauma release techniques is that in most cases, I do not require the client to talk about or re-experience stressful traumatic situation In order to resolve it. It can be done with ease through identifying its hidden benefits known as secondary gains, which can ultimately avoid reliving a distressing situation again. 

• Metaphysical anatomy uses a combination of cutting edge epigenetic research, talk therapy and intuitive energy work to help your body rebalance to its natural state of calmness and internal harmony. 

• The reason why we as a human beings suffer from the consequences of most traumatic experiences whether these are emotional or physical is due to coping mechanisms that we implemented in place due to socialisation which allows us to suppress the issue, in order to survive in a social environment.

   The difference between completing trauma and surviving it 

• The difference between surviving and completing the trauma cycle can be best observed in natural inhabitant of the animal kingdom. Let’s take an antelope, for example. The antelope usually roams around doing it’s a thing and remains in a state of calmness and harmony.This harmony is suddenly being disturbed by a lion that decides to hunt for and chase the antelope.

• At once the Antilope sympathetic nervous system gets activated, and survival instincts kicks in providing the body with a burst of energy so that the antelope can flee from the present danger. Once the antelope escapes the threat, it goes to a safe place and shakes the retained autonomic nervous energy off, to complete the trauma cycle. The buck still knows that a lion is dangerous. However, the buck is not stuck in a state of stress and shock anymore. Humans have a different way of completing trauma. The problem starts when a person holds on to it thinking that it might protect them in the future against similar incidents.

•  According to Dr. Robert C. Scaer, Human beings seem to lack the natural ability to discharge this autonomous nervous energy and instead implementing several coping mechanisms in place, allowing us to desensitise to future stressful situations. The traumatic experience may be imprinted and stored in the brain. There is suppressed adrenaline in the body and the muscles are still tensed as if though the body still wants to protect itself from a possible threat. This behavior surfaces as tension and rigidity. This is why past trauma can create so many long-term symptoms in humans.
• When a human survives trauma, there is no release of this nervous energy and the person keeps carrying it for the rest of their life. According to epigenetic research, this trauma can be passed on to future generations and remains a significant cause of disease, which humans have trouble healing. Any successful healing tool must enable a client to complete the trauma cycle.

•  MAT rebalances the emotional stress and re-harmonise the instinctive response triggered in the time of the stressful event with ease, fun, and joy.

Dissociating from trauma instead of healing and resolving it

In healing and personal development, dissociating is a way around an obstacle, usually a trauma which is triggered by our environment and circumstances. Almost all psychology, psychiatry, healing and personal development is based on this idea of dissociating.

For example, there are tools that are often used to enable the person to move on from a significant problem or trauma. Rather, it is giving the client some ability to move on and build their strength in order (hopefully, when they are ready) to deal with the real issue.

 Common practice is to use the tools to change a person’s thought or singular feeling. Often This can make the person think or feel differently about a subject. This is an excellent example of a bypassing trauma and dissociating from it – it is generally a fast way to make the person think that they have healed or developed themselves. 

 Imagine thoughts or feelings as a “neural highway” in the brain. Changing a thought or feeling is exactly like building a side road on the highway – you have cleared a path around the obstacle, but you have not cleared the obstacle itself. Therefore, it is possible to try to heal trauma by working on beliefs or feelings, but you can never heal the actual trauma. It’s physically impossible because it’s the wrong tool for the job, like building a house from paint instead of wood or bricks.
