I'm no longer a child. How, as an adult, do you get fixed? Attachment styles: I *STILL* do this at age 70. I'm jsut more thoughtful and slower about doing it. Sometimes. What is a relationships? I can't read a room. I don't read body language. I miss half the stuff that is going on. AFAIK no one has ever made a pass at me.

Thank you, very well presented.

Thank you James, for sharing this. Though our childhood stories differ, I realized that their manifestations are similar. This gives me courage.

That’s very helpful, thank you! I heard Dr. Perry speak in a 3 day conference in Regina a few yeasts ago. It was very enlightening. I wonder now, is there a way to use these principles to heal adults who have been traumatized as kids?

what about Genetics? Do you not think that this plays a part in the behaviour of children..

There is so much right about this video and so much wrong. The simple basis of the video, children reading it who obviously dont understand it, and that it talks about addressing these major mental and emotional issues in childhood. The definition of a traumatic childhood is not having the resources to get help. Most people dont work out that their childhood was toxic till much later in life. I agree that we need to work together in all aspects of anyones life who have CPTSD, but that is far from the reality of people with CPTSD. I agree completely that everyone, literally everyone needs a working knowledge of trauma in order to prevent it as much as possible and to know how to help anyone suffering from it. This video has great facts and is very informative. But it is so wrong on so many points. As a 58 yo man who has suffered an extremely toxic childhood and the resulting life that it gives you, full recovery may never be possible. The best chance we stand is for mental health science to realize that we need something we cant get for ourselves. We need mental health professionals to aid us by providing someone who can help us rewire our brains. Someone integral to our lives that we can trust as to allow us to undo the damage. Not just trauma therapy. Ive had years of trauma therpay and it has done wonders. But it has done nothing to change my interpretation of relationships and others. It is next to impossible for us to develop relationships. My brain is literally organized to avoid dangerous contact, relationships, and it constantly misinterprets signals from other people and sometimes properly interprets positive signals as dangerous, and sends out danger signals to potential relationships. Getting family (my abusers) to understand and help is impossible. Great video in talking about what trauma does to a developing mind but very poorly conceived when considering a plan of action in the real world of toxic environments. Its rare to identify CPTSD in children as we have adapted and covered so well. That toxic envrionment by its nature defeats this plan provided in the video. Just as we dont see universal healthcare in the US, you will not see money allocated towards trauma/mental health education. Society spends its money on its morality. Imagine a nation of mentally healthy citizens. Would the current power structure stand? We could not tolerate it. Its going to take a fundamental shift. One that is already occuring, Slowly. Which is too bad for myself and the millions like me. Healthcare will not catch up in time for us. We have barely evolved from state hospitals.

This is devastating. 😢

Very good video

It’s not the brain stem-it’s the limbic system

As an ECE I never thought of obstacle courses in this context but I love the idea! Been thinking more and more of these lately due to small space we have and making better use of it for physical activity. Thanks for sharing

I like your work and also the work of Gabor Maté. In almost every podcast or workshop Gabor Maté would ask someone: when was the last time you felt anger? The person describes that situation and Gabor asks: how does it make you feel? In other words: what does it mean about you? Then he would challenge that perception with other possible explanations of what happened. Finally Gabor would ask when was the first time you had this perception of not being good enough, coming from childhood. Maté says your brain jumped automatically to that explanation/perception. So it seems to me that Gabor Maté considers a trigger as a top-down approach where thoughts create an emotion, when in fact it’s stored material which comes up first (that was once in the past created by a perception). Gabor explores other explanations, so questioning the belief, but it’s stored material (that was once created by a perception, but that already happened before). Now it’s already in the body, so isn’t that what you work with? (bottom-up approach of Somatic Experiencing)

Thank you so much for bringing this wisdom to ‘light’ At age 70 I still will go into a sensory overload in some circumstances and I freeze. I have no words that I can speak, I struggle to move. 💜

Very helpful to hear. Like to hear more…

Good GP, great that the GP actually knew and then to get a good therapist. Such a hopeful story.

Resonates deeply , my childhood traumas experiences ! Keep up the good work darling

What is the programme you have used for creating the video please?

6:08 I wish 'their' was spelled correctly.

Thank you James, I see you, I hear you and I send you love

I've tried to get the stable environment with trauma aware grown ups because I believe in this healing. But the problem is lack of teacher awareness, lack of childcare provider awareness even lack of physicians awareness.

This video is so, so helpful!

Why make us try to understand the children's voices? They don't enunciate well, compared to adults.

well done James 👍Thank you for sharing you're story this will help with working with our young people.

Does anyone know how to contact this man could really do with speaking to him

What if you’re an adult and you have DCT? I have done EMDR.

thank you.

Thank you James for sharing this and Beacon House for producing this inspiring short film to give many others hope!

Congratulations James….and gratitude to Beacon House. So relatable. It took me until 42 to decide I didn’t like my behaviours and I certainly didn’t like myself. It’s taken 20 years of seeking, of finding answers and unravelling the layers of protection around me. I do feel somewhat proud of this achievement, after hearing James’ story, it has had me realise how far I have come. Blessings and love to all those seeking and finding their way back to self 💜

Amazing drawings. Thank you.

An excellent find...your channel and teaching. THANK YOU.

Amazing and so helpful.Even as adults,our inner child,traumas still needs healing..I like the practical way to explain it to us.

Looks like pseudo science to me

Wish they did this for adults too.

I have a student who would probably love this! Does the putty dry out quickly, or stay pretty soft?

I try and watch this video but my mind is so distracted, I'm in sheer paralyzed traumatized overwhelming panic. I've got no money. what the fuck am I going to do? I'm in terror. I am absolutely desperate for a miracle...

Before we are adults, we are children. My developmental trauma has led me to complex trauma. That’s like a trauma onion at the age of 28. I’ve been stuck in freeze my entire life, started therapy at 23, ended up in a hospital at 25. It’s hell.

Que nalgon

This was amazing to watch. Thank you for sharing ❤️

I like obstical courses

What a wonderful story! Trauma a horrible thing and to overcome it you done wonderful. Great drawings. Well done James. Good luck to you and your family.

This sounds a little like my upbringing. No wonder I have so many issues as an adult. Brain damage is an interesting prognosis, this has done better than any doc. I almost worried I’ve passed it on to my little one with out realising. Burdened with all the worldly expectations I might truly have missed the right response. All parents fail there children when we become blinded by need. Especially those parent who have suffered and perhaps still suffering. Not all cases of neglect are as clear cut. Not all the evidence is readily available as an when it is required. We live ignorance if confined to our own skulls. This has been very enlightening. Not only for me but but for me helping out my child. So I will be incredibly thankful for finding this resource. It been a pleasure can I say thank you, namaste 🙏 and have a nice day.

It’s not what is wrong with you it is WHAT happened to you!

Absolutely extraordinary
