I want to discuss emotional and psychological trauma caused by repressing our feelings or not speaking our truth or our thoughts. This quote by Carl Jung talks about the danger of repressing and what it can do to our well being. If unresolved issues persist, they can turn into ailments, diseases, psychological disorders, and more.
This is where creativity is so powerful to heal trauma at a deep level. Through poetry, dance, theater, music, the arts, collage making, and other creative practices, we can begin to peel the layers one by one. The first step is to understand your birth story so you can make sense of your life journey.
