Publisher's Synopsis
Violence and abuse, regardless of their source, need to be recognized for what they are. When playing out in your own psyche, they can make you feel powerless, confused or overwhelmed. This might look like a relentless barrage of self-criticism or a sudden, crippling doubt that you have any idea what you are doing. You may be unable to snap out of it or express why. Outside cues might not make sense. You only know that you feel bad and aren't sure how to get back to yourself. This is called an emotional flashback. It is the automatic response of re-living a painful situation from your very early life. This course will support you, step by step, as you acquire the new experiences and skills necessary to triumph over emotional flashbacks. This book is a print version of an online course of the same title. It addresses developmental trauma and reverses dissociation and the blocking of the felt sense that provides human beings with social and emotional intelligence. Its intention is to help people identify emotional flashbacks (in the absence of being able to clearly feel or identify emotions in the way "normal" people do), eliminate self abuse and internalize the parenting (masculine and feminine) that they wanted and needed but didn't get as children. Trauma Therapist and Author, Toni Rahman gives Coach (Inner Feminine) and Challenger (Inner Masculine) their own distinct voices, tasks, and tools which line up with current attachment and neuroscience research. This course is designed to equip you with tools when you: 1) Often find yourself stuck in internal conflicts about what you want and where you are going. 2) Are sometimes so harsh and unrelenting with yourself that you cannot relax and enjoy what you have. 3) Find yourself getting triggered often or staying triggered for long periods of time. This course combines two powerful tools that will: - Help give you direction and insight into how and why emotional flashbacks happen, and - Offer a framework for resolving early painful memories and tapping into your deepest potential.
