Survival Dance: A Journey Through Trauma & Healing

Surviving trauma can feel like a turbulent tango. Imagine it as an unexpected dance partner, coming into your life to offer healing from pain and hurt. It seems to say, “This horrible thing happened so let’s get together and heal it.” As if it were that simple. Yet, you join hands and begin to swirl around the dance floor of life, desperate for the relief the invitation promises, hoping that coming closer to this tragic partner might free you from its grip. It is the eternal tug-of-war between life’s opposites – the push and pull, the attraction and repulsion, dipping into darkness only to find fleeting moments of light.
