Things I learned at “#MentalHealth camp”:

• #Trauma is a wound to the body, mind, & spirit.
• Trauma, while caused by past events, actually lives in the body, in the present.
• Healing from trauma does not require re-experiencing the event. We can heal from trauma that we don’t remember.
• A multimodal approach to trauma recovery is ideal. Not every mode works for every person.
• The behavioral model for mental health is fundamentally broken pseudoscience.
