Healing intergenerational trauma
Based on research in neuroscience , epigenetics, post-traumatic stress disorder, and personal experiences in his own healing and working with clients, author Mark Wolynn argues that each of us has the potential to inherit psychological trauma from previous generations.
Accordingly, he believes that unconsciously, we relive our mother's anxiety, repeat our father's disappointment, and recreate the broken relationships of our parents and grandparents. Because the initial pain was buried and suppressed, it found its way back and was passed on to the next generations. It is called intergenerational trauma.
Author Mark Wolynn
The book This Pain Is Not Yours is a pioneering work that researches, surveys, and analyzes in detail the understanding and healing of these intergenerational traumas. According to Mark Wolynn: "Because we are not aware that the roots of our symptoms belong to a previous generation, we often assume that the source of the problem comes from our own life experiences, so we reach a dead end, helpless in finding a solution."
When a trauma occurs, it doesn’t always end with the individual who experienced it, he explains. Traumatic events – such as abandonment, suicide, war or the premature death of a loved one – can cause waves of depression that can spread from one generation to the next. Simply put, many people unconsciously relive and replay tragedies from previous generations.
The book won the 2016 Nautilus Book Award for Psychology.
With a tight 3-part structure, This Pain Doesn't Belong to You will help you transform psychological trauma passed down through generations in your family, resolve the original pain, break the cycle to live a full life.
Throughout the book This Pain Is Not Yours , Mark Wolynn also provides readers with tools, exercises, and provocative questions so that each person can explore their own obstacles and perhaps overcome unnecessary worries.
