Trauma’s Contribution To Depression And The Role Of Havening
For many individuals with long-term depression, unresolved trauma can play a significant role by creating entrenched negative patterns. Addressing these past traumas and reducing their emotional impact can free individuals to build new habits and ways of being that support a return to a normal life. The Havening technique is a powerful tool that uses touch and distraction to depotentiate the emotional content of traumatic memories at a neurological level, allowing these memories to be recalled without the same level of distress. This can be a crucial step in breaking free from the past and moving towards a more positive future.
