Impact Of The Impact

Traumatic impacts are anachronistic splits, ruptures that persist long after the moment has passed, shaping perception, behaviour, and identity in ways that often go unnoticed until they surface as patterns of fear, avoidance, or disconnection.
 
The body keeps score, the nervous system adapts, and survival mechanisms, once protective, become prisons. The echoes of past wounds linger, influencing how people trust, relate, and move through the world. Yet, even within this fragmentation, within the shame, guilt, and grief that twist into narratives of unworthiness, there is the possibility of something else. Not a return to what was, but an integration of what is.
 
Healing does not erase the past, nor does it follow a neat trajectory. It is nonlinear, unpredictable, deeply personal. But within the wreckage, there are moments of clarity, of connection, of choice. And sometimes, that is enough to begin again.
 
With insights into the psychological, physiological, and emotional dimensions of traumatic experiences, this book unpacks the mechanisms of impacts, the possibilities of change, and the quiet, often unseen work of reclaiming one’s own life.
