Free Trauma Energy
Evolved from Fireman's Tired Eyes
Fireman's Tired Eyes....
When I started this page, this is exactly where I was, exhausted and I had seen enough. Saturated sums it up clearly.
But I soon realised after chatting to others, that my books and writings were geared toward Fire Service only, and excluded non-service personnel. The word 'Tired' for someone dealing with depression was possibly not a good choice of words either.
Since I began writing about my experiences, I have studied to help understand more and I have continued to exercise as an Alternative Therapy, but I have also trained myself online with courses about CBT, REBT, Depression and Anxiety, Phobias and recently completed courses on Trauma-Informed Somatic Exercises. Sometimes we need more than 'talk therapy.'
Trauma can be held in our bodies, maybe by stiff joints, aching muscles, headaches, and digestive and skin issues. The list is long and varied for us all.
So, it became FTE, and this I relate to as.....Free Trauma Energy.
A new book will follow soon giving simple effective ways of self-help exercises.
All 3 books are available on the links below. Funds are being donated to The Firefighters Charity UK and Alerta (Bombeiros in Algarve)
Written to encourage and inspire others. Alternative Therapies come along in many forms.
