Healing Trauma with Step 5: Finding Peace and Purpose

The natural tendency is to build up the metaphorical wall and close off from people, to try to insulate ourselves from further harm. And you know, many times these traumatic memories stay stuck in our limbic system, which is the more primitive part of the mind. It's more instinctual, it's there to keep us safe, but these memories are not meant to stay there. And therein lies the problem.
Ever wondered how trauma can be tackled through faith and recovery? This episode of 'The Intersection of Spirituality, Psychology, and Theology' dives deep into the fifth step of Life Recovery. The hosts break down how trauma, depression, and anxiety often intertwine with addiction and codependency. They discuss how Step 5 can help you unearth and confront toxic emotions, find God’s love, and discard the lies that hold you back from fulfilling relationships with Christ and others.
This isn't just about faith; it's about practical steps to heal and move forward. The episode also touches on the role of resentment, the importance of surrendering to God, and why bad things happen to good people. The hosts bring a unique perspective on how trauma impacts our brains and relationships, making this a must-listen for anyone on a recovery journey. They emphasize the need to break the stigma around mental health and the power of confession.
If you're looking for a blend of spiritual wisdom and psychological insight to guide your healing, this episode offers a compassionate and comprehensive approach.
