Synopsis: What if we could resolve childhood trauma early, rather than late? We are understanding more and more about how early traumatic experiences affect long-term mental and physical health:

* Physical impacts are stored in muscles and posture
* Threats of harm are stored as tension
* Overwhelming emotion is held inside
* Negative emotional patterns become habit
* Coping and defense mechanism become inflexible

What if we could resolve childhood trauma before years go by and these
effects solidify in body and mind?

In a perfect world, we'd like to be able to shield children from hurt
and harm. In the real world, children, even relatively fortunate ones,
may experience accidents, injury, illness, and loss of loved ones.
Children unfortunate enough to live in unsafe environments live through
abuse, neglect, and threats to their well-being and even their life.

What if we could resolve childhood trauma fully, gently, and
completely while the child is still young?

We Can. Read "Children and Traumatic Incident Reduction" and find out
how!
