Why Meditation For Trauma Isn't Always a Good Thing
Learn how to apply meditation safely—to process Post-Traumatic Stress—without getting further overwhelmed
Meditation for working through Post-Traumatic Stress isn’t about relaxing. It is about slowly guiding you back into the body, while at the same time helping you to hold enough space for yourself in awareness so that you can face what comes up for you.
When you suffer from Complex Trauma or PTSD, being hypervigilant and "on alert" is built into your system as a survival mechanism.
Relaxation through meditation will likely feel as though you are letting your guard down. And, you will internally perceive that as vulnerable and possibly even dangerous.
Meditation can become, then, an act filled with conflict. There is a part of you that sees that being under stress wears down your health on various levels and wants to relieve the pressure; there is another part of you that stays on "high guard" and "high energy charged" because of an uncompleted fight-flight survival activation due to the particular traumatic incidence or period you went through.
When suffering is persistent you tend to project towards its opposite—towards wanting to find a way to overcome it, to get rid of it, to forget about it, to relax, to let go, to understand it cognitively in the hope that the suffering will lessen—to feel better through seeking temporary pleasures and continuous occupations, and so forth.
Unfortunately, none of this works in the long run.
Introducing
The Trauma Care Exclusive Package
The Trauma Care Exclusive Package is the summary of twenty years of experience in the field of trauma and healing.
Consisting of The Trauma Essentials and The Trauma Care Meditations, I have distilled the complexities of trauma into a practical approach which will both help you to understand your symptoms by addressing the cognitive part, and to work through your emotional residue by reconnecting with the body through somatic exercises.
You need to address both the cognitive and the somatic parts (a top-down and bottom-up approach), or else the work you do on yourself won’t be effective.
The somatic part of the work is where you reconnect with the emotions held in the body, which enables you to process what is held in the body.
The cognitive part helps you to understand the various layers of your symptoms and emotional responses by giving you an overview or road map, and also helps you to push the brakes when you go too fast in reconnecting with the body.
You really need both to be successful in making progress, and this where most approaches in working through trauma are still failing.
About The Course Facilitator,
Roland Bal
In the field since 2002, I have helped hundreds of people, through individual sessions, to make significant change in their personal well being. Additionally, I have reached many thousands more through my insightful, accurate, and descriptive writings about the harrowing conditions of Complex Trauma and PTSD, and have pointed the way towards what can be done about it in order to heal.
My unique approach focuses on containing, regulating and processing, dissociation, the fight-flight-freeze-please responses, and re-learning boundaries and vulnerability.
I'll be honored to work with you and help you make real progress towards recovery!

The Trauma Care Audio Guided Meditations
These are twelve, audio-guided meditations, with somatic exercises, that help you to gradually reconnect with the body.
They begin with you in the state of being numb, depressed and/or dissociated, and they take you through connecting with the head, the busyness, and tension, into the thorax, the heart, lungs, solar plexus and diaphragm, the adrenals and kidneys, and pelvic and lower body.
As you carefully reconnect with these parts of the body, I help you to feel the emotions that relate to the different places of your body, and draw on my many years of working with the body from my Osteopathic practices, as well as the insight I have gained over these last twenty years of working directly with people who have experienced all levels of trauma.
These guided meditations put the emphasis on working on your containment and building resilience, without getting overwhelmed, so that you can safely process your emotional residue.
If you want to address you excess of anxiety, anger, or sadness and have a better ability to contain these emotions;
If you want to balance out your fight, flight, please-appease responses so they work for you rather than against you;
These Trauma Care Resources might be what you have been looking for.

You do have to start where you are.
I have found the meditations to be useful on a number of levels. They have helped me to better manage my anxiety and my response to intrusive memories; they have taught me a lot about myself, and they have taught me a lot about trauma. I listen to them often, and each time I learn something new. Roland's approach is logical, sensitive, and validating, which makes these an excellent resource for recovery. I recommend them highly and without reservation.
Kristin

They are simple and efficient.
I’ve always wanted to use meditation to my benefit. But, I was afraid because I didn’t know what I was doing and with severe disassociation, I knew I needed to be careful. The best thing about Roland’s meditations is that they are simple and efficient, and they don’t overwhelm you. I still have a long way to go, but they are teaching me how to sit with my emotions. To be able to acknowledge them and not, as before, push them away gives me back some power. I believe it’s the beginning of my healing process. I haven’t felt hope in a long time, and I can’t hold onto it for long, but just knowing it’s still there for me is amazing.

They have completely changed my perspective.
Thank you, Roland, for the trauma care meditations, I've been actively using them for about 1 month now and they have completely changed my perspective on my healing and allowed for lots of energy to start moving. For the first time in almost a year I could feel the breathing in my ribs after a meditation session. And I'm learning to be with my fatigue instead of fighting it which is proving effective. Your insight and soothing voice helps guide me to a space in which change can occur. Very grateful for your work.
What Is Covered In The Trauma Care Meditations?
There is a deliberate sequence to these meditations: They start from the head and from there—slowly on—bring you back into the body by:
- 1Addressing disconnection and dissociation, the head and the busyness of thought;
- 2Working with the fight, flight and freeze activation, and illustrating how they relate to tensions in the neck, back of the head, and the adrenals and kidneys;
- 3Slowly moving further into the body by going into the heart and the chest area, allowing the feeling, weight, heaviness, and sadness to be felt and brought into awareness, to help you process emotional residue;
- 4Helping you work through anxiety, self-image, fatigue, depression and boundaries related to the liver, diaphragm, solar plexus, kidneys and the lower-back area; and
- 5Inviting you to safely engage with silence, while managing healthy boundaries and allowing vulnerability.

The Trauma Essential Series
In these six Trauma Essential eBooks, I lay out all you need to know about the processes that are involved when dealing with Complex Trauma.
I go deeply into dissociation, the multitude of symptoms, the various expressions of excessive thoughts, addiction, and the fight, flight, please-appease, and freeze response.
There is even an eBook that is composed of many common questions—answered by me—from people who are dealing with Complex Trauma.
These eBooks will give you the cognitive framework you need to start working through your trauma, and will prepare you to start working through your emotional residue.
Once you have that in place, you can start with the somatic part; The Trauma Care Meditations are specifically created for that.

Why You Can't Afford NOT to Get These Trauma Care Audio Guided Meditations
What Katy, Holly, Mark, Alina, Kris, Sofia, Heidi, Lynn, Karan and Wendee have in common is that they all are dealing with the symptoms that make up Complex Trauma or PTSD; and they made significant progress to either sleep better, reduce their anxiety and hypervigilance, or were able to better manage their symptoms.
Hence, if you have similar symptoms like them, you really can't afford not to get this Trauma Care Meditation Course.
Furthermore, individual counseling easily gets costly and can run into the thousands of dollars. These meditations are yours to keep, can be used whenever you feel you need them, and only go for fraction of what you might pay for one-to-one counseling.

Major resource in healing trauma.
I have found Roland’s trauma care meditations to be a major resource for me in healing from trauma. I use them regularly. Roland’s knowledge of trauma is incredible and the meditations are delivered at slow and steady pace. I find this very helpful for keeping myself regulated and for building resilience.

Worth every penny spent.
I have been listening to the meditations and they are worth every penny spent. I have been working with a trauma therapist for several years, and I have learned and grown a lot, but these meditations have done more to help me connect with myself and my body in ways that I haven't done in the two years with my psychologist. I am very grateful to have these and will be listening to them regularly. Thank you so very much for creating them and making them available.

You have gained my trust 100%.
You are a master at meditation and your knowledge of Complex PTSD is beyond anything I have ever known. It is hard to trust when you suffer from trauma but you have gained my trust 100% with your caring and understanding approach. I hope everyone gets the opportunity to learn from you and experience the meditations that are so helpful.
