That's yet another interesting perspective. Specially this one:

that a stable caregiver is usually the most important and significant help for a traumatized person.

I think, I agree

Some people and many self-help books use the word trauma in its broadest sense to mean any unpleasant experience, even if the person affected is responding to the experience in a psychologically healthy way.

I want to make the concept of trauma a bit easier to understand, at least for myself.

Trauma can be any distressing experience that exceeds a person's ability to cope—whether physical or emotional. It's important to remember that everyone’s threshold is different. For example, what seems like a typical childbirth for one person might be traumatic for another. Of course, there may be other factors involved, like the relationship with the child’s father, but even just the physical pain and challenges can make the experience traumatic for someone. And that’s not even counting the impact of hormonal imbalances that can add to the distress.

The definition of trauma is complex and varies for everyone. But when I was thinking about this project, two main ideas came to mind. First, trauma can be when someone violates your personal boundaries—physically, emotionally, or sexually. Second, it can come from situations completely outside your control, like the death of a loved one, where a person feels unable to move on and might need help to heal.

Bambuka's exercises may work for some cases, but not for others. Replicating each trauma is not only really possible, but could be even more damaging—especially when it comes to sexual abuse, particularly by a family member who was supposed to be a protector. Still, I want to explore this idea and see where it leads.
