Lightbulb Taming Trauma Beasties Review~

perhaps this may help you all - it helped me...
even though perhaps we are older we are still a child at heart...


Taming Trauma Beasties Review:
The concept of "trauma beasties" was developed by Dr. Gallagher to help foster parents address the needs of children suffering the persistent effects of trauma. In the course of working with children's trauma beasties, she teamed up with Dr. Karjala to present a synthesis of traditional psychotherapy and energy psychology in Taming Trauma Beasties: Helping Children Confront Trauma and Heal (ThomasMax Publishing, 2007).

What are Trauma Beasties?
"Trauma beasties" is Gallagher's phrase for the thoughts, feelings and memories that recreate a trauma or trigger fears, discomfort, nightmares or flashbacks. The concept of a "trauma beastie" allows children to understand and express their feelings and gives caregivers – be they parents, teachers or foster parents – a framework to discuss the ways that children may be acting out as a result of fears about earlier experiences.

The trauma beastie concept was developed over ten years ago by Mary Gallagher, Ph.D. but, she says, "The initial formulation of the Trauma Beastie concept could help children manage and regulate the trauma symptoms but could not neutralize them. It needed to include an intervention that could tame the Trauma Beastie." With her discovery of energy psychology, that intervention was born.

Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant with the weak and the wrong. Sometime in your life you will have been all of these.
