Living with Trauma

Trauma changes how we see the world — and how we see ourselves.

At Self Cultivation, this work comes from lived experience as well as professional training.

I’ve been there: rebuilding after trauma, balancing work and family, and learning what it means to truly heal and live again.

This is about rediscovering safety, strength, and meaning — learning to live well in the present, even after life has knocked you down.

Living With Trauma

What it is & who it’s for

Living with Trauma sessions draw on a blend of evidence-based techniques — breathwork, somatic awareness, and behavioural insight — all rooted in compassion and personal understanding.

It’s ideal for individuals who are:

• Managing post-traumatic stress, anxiety, or emotional overwhelm

• Feeling disconnected, numb, or constantly “on alert”

• Balancing recovery with career or family responsibilities

• Seeking safe, practical tools for regulation and self-awareness

• Wanting to learn from someone who has navigated trauma personally and found a way through

How it helps

Healing begins when we understand what’s happening inside us — and start to feel safe enough to reconnect.

You’ll learn to:

• Recognise how trauma affects the body and nervous system

• Use breathwork and grounding to calm stress responses

• Build daily rituals that create safety and control

• Reconnect with confidence, trust, and purpose

• Move from surviving to living — with greater ease, perspective, and meaning

What to expect

Sessions are calm, confidential, and led entirely at your pace.

You remain in control throughout — there is no pressure to retell experiences or go deeper than feels right.

We work practically: using breath, awareness, reflection, and structure to help you regulate, process, and rebuild.

The focus is on recovery that lasts — bringing stability to your body, clarity to your mind, and direction back into your life.
