Trauma is often viewed as something that has to “happen” to you directly. That isn’t always the case, especially when it comes to generational trauma.

Almost everyone has a basic idea of what trauma is and how it can impact your mental health. However, fewer people recognize that not all trauma is “created” equally.

Most people understand the lasting impacts trauma can have on your mental health. However, it can also have a lasting effect on your physical well-being.
