CHILDHOOD TRAUMA AND TRANSCENDENT SPIRITUALITY
Trauma and Spirituality
Combining 30 years of meditative training and experience with 25 years of clinical practice, Dr. Forman's newest initiative is to create spaces and workshops that help those with early childhood trauma who also have a strong drive towards transcendent forms of spirituality. The initiative is undergirded by his recent book, The Monster's Journey: From Trauma to Connection, which offers a reimagining of Joseph Campbell's The Hero's Journey for those who have suffered childhood trauma.
Trauma and Spirituality Course Coming in October to Integral Life!
The inaugural course for this initiative will take place in October 2023 on Integral Life. It will be a six-session course focused on issues of childhood trauma and its relationship to spirituality, and will include meditation, journaling, peer-to-peer support, and ample times for questions and answers addressing the intersection of these two subjects.
Trauma and Spirituality Website
