Learn how to process the trauma that you've witnessed. This is different from trauma that is directly experienced. When we witness the trauma of others, it can leave behind emotional residue for the observer. Join me for 12 minutes as I guide you through three self-compassion components to process painful experiences that can get buried in the body from vicarious trauma. This is a practice of nurturing yourself after bearing witness to suffering. The principles in this meditation are from the concepts of Mindful Self-Compassion through CMSC and from my direct work with police, first responders, therapists, and crisis workers.
