Raised to Be a Soldier: Understanding and Removing The Armor We Wear From Childhood Trauma

Has childhood trauma armed you to soldier through your life instead of truly live it?

From the earliest moments of life, children are immersed in a rich tapestry of colorful emotions.

Alongside the bright hues, though, darker shades lurk in the shadows, waiting to be acknowledged and understood.

For many of us, the childhood bootcamp we're thrust into teaches emotional neglect instead of how to navigate our emotional health. This leads to patterns of emotional dysregulation or emotional chaos, and we leave childhood hypervigilant, emotionally numb, emotionally dysregulated, or all three. We adapt and armor ourselves with physical and psychological defensive patterns to protect ourselves in the battle of our lives. Consequently, our work suffers, our relationships suffer, and, most importantly, we suffer.

In Raised to Be a Soldier, author Kelly Nenezian shares the insights of years of practice as a licensed mental health counselor to help you rearmor yourself and live the life you want.

Inside, learn how to:

• Understand childhood trauma and reconnect with your mind and body's natural healing mechanisms to heal Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
• Reverse the childhood battle strategies of repression, suppression, and dissociation so you can shed the armor that isn't allowing you to live your life to the fullest
• Use somatic therapies to assist in healing childhood trauma so you can train yourself to feel your emotions and reclaim your peace

Healing trauma should include both physical and psychological components to be truly beneficial and promote long-term, sustainable change. Reading this book is your first step.

It's time to come home to yourself and your body, feeling, breathing, and moving through the life you're meant to have.
