There’s so much content out there about healing childhood trauma. And I’m here to tell you, from my heart to yours — it’s a bitch. It’s messy. It’s long. It’s layered. And even those of us who teach this work still cry, still get triggered, and still move through it in real time.In this episode, I share the four stages of healing that I teach my clients — and how they directly mirror what secure attachment in childhood was supposed to provide. Because the truth is, most of us didn’t get what we needed. And now we get to learn how to offer that to ourselves.We explore reconnecting to sensations when you’ve been dissociated for years, what nervous system regulation actually means (and why so much of what’s said online misses the point), how to feel emotions safely instead of suppressing them, how to recognize and meet your needs without shame, and why desire is often the most terrifying and liberating layer of all.This is not a quick fix episode. This is an honest one. Healing is not about becoming calm and never feeling anything again. It’s about building the capacity to feel deeply and stay safe while you do.If you’ve ever wondered why this work feels so hard, why expressing yourself feels dangerous, or why asking for what you want feels like risking abandonment — this episode will help you understand the layers.Here is your free Triggers Practice-> Trigger to Rooted: A step-by-step process of working with your triggers: https://marinayt.com/trigger-2-rooted WORK WITH ME 1:1:❥Softening into self- 3 month 1:1 with Whats App Support:https://marina-yt.mykajabi.com/offers/PAWQhZHu❥❥1:1 Coaching with me: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfWcZM5s9c2OjOLwoGMI5jE6rh_JAzjN2d_vCtuVe7e3pVGxw/viewformDOWNLOAD FOR FREE:Stay or Go: 5 Clarity Questions to Reconnect with Your Inner Knowing: https://marinayt.com/stay-or-go-guideAttachment Practice: Discover the actual blocks beneath the surface so you can actually have the deep intimacy you crave: https://marinayt.com/attachment-practice Connect & Ground: 10 Incredible Somatic Practices for Nervous System Regulation: https://marinayt.com/connect-and-groundAlive & Aligned: 7 Embodiment Practices For Self Connection: https://marinayt.com/alive-and-alignedTrigger to Rooted: A step by step process of working with your triggers: https://marinayt.com/trigger-2-rooted VIEW MY COURSES & RESOURCES:https://marinayt.com/resources#/ CONNECT WITH ME:Follow me on Instagram:⁠ ⁠www.instagram.com/marina.y.t⁠⁠ Subscribe to YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@marinatriner Top Episode Quotes:“There’s a lot of content out there on healing childhood trauma, and I’m here to tell you that it’s a bitch.”“Regulation is not feeling calm all the time.
