<div style="text-align: start;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trauma causes a disruption between your conscious brain and subsconscious brain. Your trauma can hurt your performance and the performance of others around you.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">We all suffer from trauma in our lifetime yet due to our own unique life experiences, which start months before our birth, there can be no two traumas exactly the same. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">The way in which we experience trauma is unique to all of us but the system that can be used to recover from mental trauma, is the same for all of us.

<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">If trauma is continuous or ignored, the problem grows bigger.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Today, it is widely accepted that emotional trauma can hurt human performance and is the <b><i>root cause</i></b> of so many epidemics like addiction, PTSD, depression, bullying, eating disorders, workplace harassment, family violence, suicide and hundreds of other presenting symptoms.
