Aika joins us from USA and in this chat we talk about how trauma effects us as humans and deconstruct the misconception that trauma is caused only by “big events”. We understand the importance and role of communication in relationships and the cultural implications of mental health and seeking help for it. We understand how community influences are mental health and understand how EMDR therapy works. Aika has broken down complex technicalities into simple analogies that just click in your head!
Aika also answers questions sent in regarding
-struggling to finding a place in community
– working through sleep issues
-how trauma from assaults in our past affects our future relationships and how to deal with the same.
– Mindfulness and how it can help with trauma.
We’re grateful to Aika for taking the time to chat with us. I know I personally loved meeting Aika and working with her!\
