We are All on Fire: The Inevitable Trauma of Human Life

Every human life has pain including birth trauma, developmental trauma and death. We all have to face life’s unpredictability and lack of consideration for our feelings. In our search for stability and safety we form elaborate defenses against our vulnerability and fear. We can interrupt this reactive cycle by connecting to the larger Self or ever present dynamic source. This new center can contain and comfort us. It can provide a way to relate to our complexes without being overwhelmed. If we realize that suffering connects us and that we are all in the same boat, we can develop deep compassion for all living beings.
