Chat Off The Mat - Holistic Healing, Feminine Energy and Tools for Vibrant Living

What happens when childhood trauma resurfaces in adulthood? Join us as Cindy Benezra bravely shares her story of enduring sexual abuse by her father and the path she took toward healing. From the early coping mechanisms she developed, like dissociation, to the moment she confronted her father and navigated the complex relationship with her mother, Cindy's journey is a testament to strength and resilience. Cindy's book, "Under the Orange Blossoms," serves as a beacon of hope and a guide for those looking to understand and recover from their own traumas.
We also explore the critical role of therapy and open dialogue in addressing deep-seated issues of abuse. This episode emphasizes the necessity of recognizing various forms of child abuse and setting personal boundaries, even within the family unit. Reflecting on the emotional and psychological toll of writing about one's trauma, we discuss how to find purpose amidst pain and the importance of sharing these stories to catalyze change and healing.
Finally, learn practical techniques for managing anxiety and stress, from energy work to grounding practices. Discover how simple actions like visualizing energy or using self-soothing hand placements can make a significant difference in your daily life. We underscore the importance of setting positive intentions each morning and harnessing the power of community in our collective journey toward empowerment and resilience. Join us for an episode filled with transformative insights and heartening advice on healing and thriving despite a painful past.
