Trauma is an emotional response to a negative event. The effects of trauma can be overwhelming and difficult to understand and heal from. Oftentimes, coping from trauma can be difficult. But coming to realize that you need healing is the first step in recovery.
Today’s guest, Elena Breese, survived the Boston Marathon terror attack. As someone who has been through such a traumatic event, Elena learned and discovered that healing does arrive–it just takes time.
“Oh, it took time. I think the most important part of it was just being open-minded enough to be willing to try. Although it didn't feel fast when I was going through it because I just, I've tried everything and I continue to try things and I'm so grateful that I live right now when so much money and research and dedication is going into mental health.”
In this episode, Elena talks about letting go of the things that are holding you back, the joy in “looking up”, and learning that life has so much more to offer despite the chaos.
“Ok. Well I think, I think it's important to have many different things that you can reach for, because anyone who has anxiety, depression or PTSD knows that a tool will work for a while and then it won't be as effective anymore.”
