Welcome to Heal Your Early Imprints: Signs of Early Trauma

Signs of Early Trauma

How can you tell if your life is effected now by your experiences in the womb or during birth?

Many of us have experienced womb or birth trauma and are unaware of the impact it is having on our lives. From conception onward our parents had a deep impact upon us at all levels. The nature of their relationship with each other at conception and through the pregnancy, events and the emotional environment in our immediate families of origin, e.g. bereavements, whether you were planned and wanted or not, and much more, all effect us in the womb and color our experience of our world after birth. In addition to these ‘environmental’ factors which on their own can be the origin of many prenatal trauma’s, there are also other causes of early trauma and shock (see FAQ’s)

If we choose to heal ourselves we can improve our lives, and the lives of future generations. Once a deep wound has been healed and integrated, it will not be passed on to future generations.

The following is a partial list of some of the common signs of early traumatic imprints. You will see that there are a number of common issues whose origins may have been, and often are, much earlier than we generally think:
