Trauma Resolution- what is it? Can we ever be fully resolved of our trauma? The key may lie in the connection you hold to your body and its truth. My guest this week is an incredible expert in the field of somatic trauma healing, Denise Chang. Denise is a queer enby femme, somatic trauma resolution guide, and co-creator of consensual culture- a community collective and relational healing ecology for trauma resolution and QTBIPOC liberation. Denise is an immigrant of Malaysian-Chinese decent, who came to the U.S. at age 21 to attend college. After experiencing the American culture of self expression and sexuality, Denise discovered repressed trauma and shame in her heart that would lead her to learning more about how she could learn to trust herself as she uncovered layers leading to her true self. The discovery of the layers of protection around her heart due to the conditioning and messaging she received around her identities gave Denise the clue she needed to begin exploring the spiral path through the parts of herself that needed more love, more attention, to simply be met and held. This journey took Denise deep into the realms of somatic trauma healing where she learned that when the conditions are safe enough for us to express, our bodies respond and we can find deep healing and authenticity. In this week’s episode, Denise brings her wisdom of somatic trauma resolution, spiritual embodiment and the uncanny ability to sense systems of oppression that exist within our culture and relational field to light.
