Most of us are only starting to become aware of how our foundational years contribute to who we are today. Our childhood environment shapes the foundation for our sense of self, how we feel about the world, and how we relate to others. If we experienced trauma or dysfunction along the way, it likely disrupted the pathways to these fundamental structures. Understanding our trauma is not about blame, but about understanding, learning, and growing. In most cases, our caregivers did the best they could with the tools they had, often while dealing with external or internal stressors as well.

Shame influences more of our thoughts and actions than many other emotions. Used as a punishment for bad behavior, shame acts as an incentive for us to behave in socially acceptable ways.

Unverarbeitete Traumata in Familien können von einer Generation an die nächste vererbt werden. Ereignisse von gesellschaftlicher, politischer und historischer Tragweite wie Krieg, Vertreibung und Diskriminierung, aber auch persönlich erfahrenes schweres Leid, z.
