On this episode of Transforming Trauma, host Emily Ruth welcomes Dr. David Richo, PhD, MFT, psychotherapist, teacher, and writer to share wisdom from his 50+ years of helping people identify and resolve relationship challenges that often mirror issues from their childhood.

Talking points: trauma This was an honor. The word trauma gets thrown around a lot these days, so it's important to get back to basics and really sink into what's going on and why. After all, this is humanity we're talking about, and we're nothing if not complex. Peter is a legend in therapy circles for his groundbreaking work in somatic education and trauma work, so we dug into many of the different (and unusual) things something like trauma brings to the table. Both Peter and I encourage you to listen WITH someone! (00:00:00) - Peter's definition of trauma and how it affects the body (00:07:27) - Peter demonstrates a somatic exercise to help release trauma (00:13:14) - Do men and women experience and handle trauma differently? (00:21:40) - On how trauma needs witnessing to heal, and Peter's experience with active imagination (00:34:14) - Navigating the almost mystical side of healing (00:39:45) - Why the tiger? (00:43:27) - How can men work in a healthy way with anger, and how betrayal can impact how someone expresses themselves (00:49:08) - The main tool to help process trauma Peter A Levine, Ph.D., is the developer of Somatic Experiencing®, a naturalistic and neurobiological approach to healing trauma, which he has developed over the past 50 years. He holds a doctorate in Biophysics from UC Berkeley and a doctorate in Psychology from International University.

We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below or share in our fb group. What you'll learn from this episode: There's a point at which we know when we're ready to make a change, this isn't something that is logical or external - learning to honour that as both individuals and change workers is vital When we attempt to apply broad brush strokes, cultural norms or formulas to ourselves or our clients, we miss the unique nature of each person and the timing that is right I love how David spoke about the role of grace providing synchronicities and insights… there's something greater at play than our ego when it comes to change, and actually life as a whole - we are not in control The presence of Grace David Richo and Lian with their respective statues of Our Lady of Guadlupe, mentioned in the show Resources and stuff that we spoke about: For David's books, talks, and events visit his website: https://davericho.com/ Thank you for listening!

The mystery of consciousness has confounded the western scientific paradigm for centuries. Often considered an epiphenomenon of matter, new information has been accumulating that pushes us beyond that paradigm, and suggests that matter is the floor, or basis of all physical phenomena in the universe.

He earned his Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Vermont and a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with a special focus on somatic/body psychology from Santa Barbara Graduate Institute. Corey joins me today to discuss the aspect of integrity and doing the right thing when faced with difficult decisions. We discuss the difference between following what our bodies and hearts tell us to do versus following our thoughts. We explain how practicing mindfulness and self-inquiry can help you determine whether you’re making the right decisions based on your values and integrity and how these practices can help you be more in-tune with your spouse, partner, or others in your relationships. We also discuss how our past experiences shape the way we make decisions and influence our decisions on doing the right thing. “When the right thing is done, it can turn into some of the most profound growth experiences in life.” - Corey Costanzo This week on Relationships! Let’s Talk About It: How volunteering at a men’s detention center has impacted Corey’s perspective on doing the right thing. How Corey knows when he has made a good decision that is in alignment with his values. How to use your body as a checks-and-balances resource to guide your decisions. How mindfulness, self-inquiry, and breathing practices help you make better decisions that are in alignment with your core values and integrity. Making good relational decisions versus simply compromising. How to balance understanding your partner’s reality and sharing your own perspective without being judgmental. Corey’s recent experience of planning his sister’s surprise birthday party and how he realized he was making decisions based on his preferences instead of what his sister would want. The importance of being disciplined to think beyond yourself when making decisions that will impact others. Rewarding children for showing empathy and claiming ownership of their mistakes. What it means for parents to set ‘hard-core boundaries’ for their children and why Corey believes there is a more effective way to teach children to do the right thing. How your unique experiences, personality, and character structure influences your decision-making skills. An effective strategy for rebuilding trust that has been broken in a relationship. How to identify if your behavior and actions are in alignment with the relational agreements you’ve made. How learning from your previous mistakes and poor decisions helps you make better decisions in the future. Let’s Talk About It! Thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of Relationships!
