Healing Collective Trauma
A growing number of mental health professionals are calling the pandemic a collective trauma.
How New Zealand Flower Essences Support Recovery
A mass or collective trauma takes place when the same event or chain of events traumatises many people within the same period of time.
In many ways, COVID-19 and events associated with it have presented some of the biggest challenges to our collective holistic wellbeing that we have seen in many years.
Many people have already experienced, or are currently experiencing some form of trauma at some level of their being. It may be the loss of a job, the inability to be with family, or feeling a sense of existential crisis around the ever changing local and global events.
Different types of trauma
According to Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber, founder and creator of First Light Flower Essences of New Zealand® there different types of trauma that many people in our community may have experienced or still be experiencing.
They are:
- Physical/survival trauma – losing a job, becoming ill, experiencing financial hardship or unpredictable changes at home, work or school.
- Emotional/sexual trauma – feeling separated from loved ones, not being able to spend time with family or friends
- Disempowerment trauma – feeling out of control of life or situations, having to obey strict rules, not being heard or understood or being exposed to bullying at home, work or school.
- Heartfelt trauma – experiencing a relationship breakup, the loss of a loved one, feeling isolated, a loss of trust or being deemed unacceptable by others.
- Humiliation trauma – feeling separated from community, not fitting in or having a sense of belonging, an inability to speak up due to fear of being judged, suppressed creative urges and self-expression, feeling disrespected
- Reality trauma – feeing life is in constant turmoil, feeling ignored or invalidated, having the realisation that life is not going back to how it was
- Spiritual trauma – so many people are realising that they have lost the meaning in their lives and their connection to their sense of purpose
Clearing Trauma Without Having To Relive It
No matter what type of trauma we may be experiencing, it is possible to quickly, effectively and efficiently clear its negative energetic imprints from our energy field without having to relive the traumatic experience.
By keeping our personal energy field free from trauma, we are also able to ‘see’ things more clearly, have a better perspective and so make better decisions and be there for others in a much deeper and more empowering way.
