Mindfulness that Heals with Dr. David TreleavenAdded:
One of the practices that I offer that's been very instructive for me >> [music] >> is about the embodiment of trauma sensitivity and the importance of relating to someone's we could call them safety strategies or survival strategies >> [music] >> not as a problem but actually deeply intelligent. So I gave that example of dissociating. [music] For a long time I was relating to it as a problem. But actually it was it was something that was taking care of me.
This is what's happening in meditation.
We can learn to help people really see that strategies that may seem like they're getting in the way of practice are actually deeply intelligent and can be worked with.
