Former technology executive, Lisa Erickson, joins radio host, Denise Turney, on Off The Shelf Books Talk Radio (https://www.blogtalkradio.com/denise-turney- ). Lisa offers techniques and strategies to face and breakthrough trauma wounds, including anxiety and depression, particularly sexual trauma wounds.

Yoga and Meditation as Healing Tools

During the Off The Shelf radio interview, Lisa shares how yoga and meditation work as tools to deal with stress that has built into ongoing anxiety. Specific areas that Lisa and Denise venture into include Kundalini meditation and body energy. They discuss signs of hidden wounds from sexual abuse trauma and working with chakras to heal.

Books that Lisa and Denise dig into are “Women’s Energetics: Healing The Subtle Body Wounds of Sexual Trauma and Abuse” and “Chakra Empowerment for Women: Self-Guided Techniques for Healing Trauma, Owning Your Power & Finding Overall Wellness”. Another important topic discussed is time. After all, it’s time, as it relates to personal healing investment, that can work as a barrier to healing.
