After harm

This area is for understanding what is happening in you after something harmful, and for settling. It is not a treatment programme.

Please read this first

Nothing here asks you to go back into a traumatic memory. Processing a trauma is work to do with a therapist who can hold it with you, not alone with a website. If you start to feel far away, unreal, or flooded while reading, stop and come back another time.

Move the body gently, a walk, a stretch, to discharge what fear leaves stored in it.

Fear is physical energy. Letting the body move helps it complete and settle what it could not before.

Build one place or time in your day that reliably feels safe, and return to it when you need steadying.

Healing needs a floor to stand on. A predictable pocket of safety is that floor; protect it.
