In this deeply insightful episode of the Righteous Karma podcast, Ty Allen sits down with Dr. Jasmin Jones, a licensed psychologist and founder of Liberation Psychological Services, to explore the concept of Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG). Dr. Jones, who specializes in complex trauma, anxiety, and neurodevelopmental disorders, shares her expertise on how we can transmute our pain into powerful growth.
Key Discussion Points:
Understanding Post-Traumatic Growth: Dr. Jones explains the distinction between resilience and post-traumatic growth, highlighting how PTG allows individuals to grow beyond their trauma, rather than merely returning to a pre-trauma state.
Shame as a Barrier to Growth: The conversation delves into how shame can prevent individuals from beginning their healing journey, and Dr. Jones shares techniques to cultivate self-compassion, an essential antidote to shame.
Practical Steps for Healing: The episode offers practical strategies for reconnecting with one’s body after trauma, including trauma-informed yoga and body scanning exercises.
The Role of Support Systems: Dr. Jones discusses the complexities of navigating healing when family and community support may be lacking or when relationships have caused harm.
The RAIN Method: A mindfulness exercise introduced by Dr. Jones to help individuals process difficult emotions and nurture themselves through challenging moments.
The Importance of Joy: Ty and Dr. Jones discuss the necessity of incorporating joy into the healing process and how survivors can begin to reclaim positive emotions.
Memorable Quotes:
“Post-traumatic growth is about appreciating the gifts that come from adversity—not just surviving, but truly thriving in ways that honor our journey.”
“Self-compassion is the antidote to shame. It’s about being curious, not critical, as we work through the hard stuff.”
