Dealing with Deep Trauma in the Body

A woman who experienced a deep trauma three years ago, feels as if it interferes with abidance because it's affecting her nervous system. Rupert suggests that in theory, all that is required is to rest in being and the nervous system gradually comes to rest. Sometimes the system has been so traumatised that it needs a little extra help. In this case, we calm the system enough to rest in the open space of awareness. When triggered and in a heightened state of anxiety, it is useful to at least go halfway and rest in some activity that is calming for the body, like yoga or an activity that engages you physically that we enjoy and is calming.
