Co-creating Peace Episode #139 – “EmotionAid® – 5 Steps to Reduce Trauma and Deactivate High Emotion”

Trauma is a part of life, as the world we’re living in continually shows us. Yet we don’t have to carry that trauma throughout our life.

Welcome to “EmotionAid® –  5 Steps to Reduce Trauma and Deactivate High Emotion”, Episode #139 of Co-creating Peace, a series about conscious communication and conflict transformation. 

Join me for this enlightening episode as I welcome back Jeffrey Goldstein to discuss the transformative power of EmotionAid®, a set of five practical tools created by the International Trauma Healing Institute in Israel to help manage and de-escalate emotional responses during times of trauma, conflict or high stress. Jeffrey explains how these tools work to dissipate residual adrenaline, re-center and re-orient ourselves, release the trauma from our body, and find wisdom and strength through the experience. By regulating the nervous system and our psychological responses with these techniques, we can release the residues of the trauma response and transform that energy into creative and positive outcomes, promoting well-being and peace within ourselves and in our interactions with others.

Highlights of our conversation include:

• Recognizing & honoring our trauma responses for what they are
• The importance of discovering where our trauma(s) reside in our body and how to release them
• The 5 steps of EmotionAid®
• The extraordinary value of utilizing the 5th step of EmotionAid® (Resourcing) to fill the spaces that remain when we’ve released the residues of our trauma(s)
• Understanding that growth and positive outcomes can result from consciously working through our trauma
