What if trauma isn't only about what happened, but about what your body is still holding?

In this episode of Life Made Easier, Tiffany Hunter, PhD and Karen Janes, DClinPsy explore trauma through an energy healing perspective, offering a grounded and compassionate way to understand why past experiences can still affect us in the present. They discuss trauma as stored emotional energy in the body, a perspective often explored in energy healing and somatic approaches.

They describe trauma not only as big, obvious events, but also as smaller, repeated experiences that were never fully processed or supported. This stored energy can show up as feeling triggered, stuck, self-critical, anxious, or unable to move on, even when life seems stable.

Importantly, Tiffany and Karen explain that healing does not require knowing the full story, remembering what happened, or retelling difficult experiences. Trauma can be worked with even when memories are unclear or unavailable, because the body and energy system still hold the information.

They discuss resonance, triggers, and why pacing, safety, and the right kind of support matter when working with trauma. This episode offers a reassuring starting point for anyone who feels impacted by their past and wants a gentler, body-based way to understand what's happening.
