There are multiple different therapeutic approaches to healing from trauma. Regardless of the approach, your therapist will work with you to create a space where you can safely revisit the trauma you’ve experienced, understand and process what’s happened in your past, and learn the skills to begin to move forward in your journey.
As human beings, we evolved to move. Physical movement has consistently been shown to promote mental well-being. When we exercise, our bodies are flooded with endorphins—the “happy” hormone. Physical movement creates new neural pathways. Even just going for a walk literally changes our brains for the better. Working out decreases stress, improves mood and memory, and helps us sleep better.
