James Hands Awaken Therapy

Processing Childhood Trauma

In this episode, I discuss trauma processing and the benefits of hypnotherapy. Trauma, particularly from childhood, can remain unresolved and continue to affect us. Through therapy, we aim to process these experiences so they no longer interfere with our lives. Hypnotherapy, which I trained in 15 years ago, is an effective tool for addressing deep-seated issues. It helps shift our consciousness to access and resolve problems in the subconscious. Unlike traditional counselling, hypnotherapy allows us to tackle the root cause of our issues.

This episode includes a guided hypnotherapy session.

Flying high in consciousness

In this episode, I want to take you on a plane trip. The whole point of doing therapy is clearing up the problematic ballast that keeps us stuck, allowing us to rise in our consciousness and move into the superconscious. Some people avoid their trauma by staying in the superconscious, but this is unstable. Those who face and heal their deep trauma have the strength to soar higher.

A healthy root system allows our branches to reach new heights. Today, let's go on a guided journey to our true home in consciousness, the truth of what we are as eternal souls. Practice this journey to deepen your connection with your higher self.

Unifying your higher and lower self

In this episode I talk about the harmonised self. My old spiritual teacher used to say that the purpose of our incarnation is to unify and harmonise the higher self and the lower self. We must do our healing and spiritual work so that our higher self, or soul, is joined and harmonised with our lower human self. This allows us to live our human life with the quality, strength, love, and wisdom of our greatest self being expressed through our human self.

Our mission, our project, our purpose is twofold: healing the obstacles, trauma, and negative beliefs in our root system and simultaneously doing our spiritual practices to connect more with our greater self. This creates a healthy and mighty tree, representing the harmonised self.

Inviting your inner warrior to show up

Today, I want to guide you through a process to help you connect with your inner warrior, tapping into the divine masculine within. We're talking about the universal energy of masculinity and its balance with the feminine. On a higher spiritual level, everything is one, but we often speak of this duality - masculine and feminine, yin and yang, light and dark, sun and moon.

Both of these energies reside within us, shaping our core. In today's world, the dialogue around masculinity can be messy, often highlighting the toxic traits. It's essential to acknowledge this and work through our personal history, especially our relationship with our fathers. This can uncover wounds and help us heal, creating space for positive, protective masculine energy.

Join me as we access this strength, offering love and protection to our inner child.

Anger, the misunderstood emotion

In this episode I guide you through a comprehensive exploration of anger, its true essence, and how we can develop a healthier relationship with it. Anger, at its core, is our willpower and lifeforce. When expressed in alignment with love and integrity, anger manifests as assertiveness and boundary-setting. However, when influenced by fear and unresolved trauma, anger can turn into destructive aggression or harmful suppression, leading to passive-aggressive behaviours, depression, and anxiety. I encourage you to recognise and understand your anger, bringing a loving curiosity to this powerful emotion. By doing so, we can heal the fear-based split and transform our relationship with anger, allowing it to become a positive and assertive force in our lives.

Uncovering Hidden Childhood Trauma

Uncovering Hidden Childhood Trauma: Signs, Symptoms, and Steps to Healing

In this episode I discuss hidden childhood trauma, its symptoms, and why understanding it is crucial for our healing journey. Unresolved childhood trauma can manifest in various ways, such as emotional regulation difficulties, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and even physical health issues. Recognising these signs allows us to approach them with compassion rather than self-judgment, which is a significant step towards healing. By addressing these deep-rooted issues, we can begin to transform our pain and foster self-acceptance. The episode also includes a guided hypnosis.

Are you a pleaser? Understanding the pleaser reaction to childhood trauma.

Welcome to another instalment of my series on childhood trauma and our reactions to it. So far I’ve been talking about trauma, the causes of dysfunctional families and the four F's – the four different ways we can react to trauma which include fight, flight, freeze, and fawn. Fawn is another word for pleasing and in this episode I’m going to focus on the pleaser reaction to trauma and what pleaser behaviour looks like. Similar to my other episodes, I end with a guided hypnotherapy session, helping those pleasers watching the video to process their trauma and start moving forward towards a healthier, more balanced self.
