Episode 4-37: Trauma and Relationship

Trauma, which is a negative event that can adversely affect one’s physical, mental, emotional or spiritual well-being, is a commonplace occurrence in life.  There are probably few people who have not experienced significant traumatic events in their lives.

In this episode, we’ll take a look as some of the common sources of trauma, and we’ll then see what kinds of damage those can cause.  We will then consider how suffering trauma can negatively affect both one’s relationships, and one’s capacity for participating in intimate relationships.
