Does #Trauma affect the brain & nervous system in such a way that renders #Mindfulness , #Meditation , and #nonduality useless? #CPTSD #DID #Depression
Since I began trauma #therapy 2 years ago, I’ve lost all connection to my former #Spiritual practices. They feel meaningless. I don’t believe in anything anymore, but I still try sometimes, when I can muster the will.
Today, I walked outside for over an hour, repeating and meditating on simply, “I am.” To which my brain answers, “So what?”
No matter what practice I use to calm my nervous system, it just keeps throwing negative & hopeless thoughts back at me. I feel like I’ve tried everything and don’t know what else to do.
