During our youth, we all nurture grand aspirations for our lives, eagerly taking on the world with unwavering determination. Yet, life often throws unforeseen challenges our way, derailing us from our intended path - one such formidable obstacle being cancer.

Cancer presents a unique set of trials for the afflicted and their loved ones. For many, it becomes a moment for profound reflection, prompting a reevaluation of long-held priorities and values, while unspoken dreams and desires come to the forefront.

Many survivors express gratitude for the additional lease on life, reorienting their perspective to savor moments and let trivial matters fade into insignificance. This transformation is fostered by a newfound sense of purpose and a crystal-clear outlook on the future, a perspective sharpened by the stark reality of a life hanging in the balance.

Trauma and Triggers PLUS THE POWER of HEALING with Julie Lokun, Tia Walden and Mika Altidor

Overcoming trauma is hard even when you are not sure of the trauma you suffered. Join Julie, Mika and Tia all about a conversation that changed our world. Let us know what you think about this conversation!

In this second part of our interview with Dr. Nima Rahmany, we are bringing our outtakes right back at you. It was a conversion that nearly brought us to tears. You will discover his intuitive ability to understand trauma, where we do not even know trauma in our lives, is genius!

Dr. Nima reveals that when we understand trauma, we will understand when things get triggered. Our body goes into this active protective state. And it's trying to go into protection.

He explains that we need to understand and validate our autonomic nervous system state first and join ourselves where we are at without judging our feelings for being wrong before we consider the law of attraction. He emphasizes that the problem is that the law of attraction is missing key steps that are damaging to those who are trauma survivors, which all of us are.

He reminds us that our tears are part of the healing. And if we want to understand our history and come to peace with it, we have to go to our parents' history and their parents' history.

Dr. Nima Rahmany is a Chiropractor turned Edutainer on a mission to teach business executives, entrepreneurs, and teenagers how to dissolve the Root Cause of stress.
