The “pursuit of happiness” is one of the most famous phrases in American history, and when America’s founders wrote it in the Declaration of Independence, they intended it to mean happiness through lifelong learning and self-improvement. To start our series, Jeffrey Rosen and scholar Robert P. George , the McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence and director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University, trace how the meaning of pursuit of happiness has changed. Then, American filmmaker Ken Burns shares how — even as he has spent his “entire life trying to figure out the United States” — daily self-reflection has given him new perspectives on what the founders faced 250 years ago.

On a soul level, both of these exist within us. The feminine aspect longs for union, belonging, and returning to oneness. The masculine aspect seeks individuation — to know ourselves as a unique, creative drop in the ocean of the divine. It can feel like a tension, but it’s really a dance between two essential forces. Both are part of our wholeness, and both belong.

We often hear about fight and flight, which are the outward expressions. But freeze and please are more inward, and I’ve noticed over the years that stronger people, those with more capacity to take responsibility for themselves, often lean on these strategies. Both freeze and please are survival strategies, and both can follow us into adulthood, showing up as hiding away, difficulty setting boundaries, or always putting others first. Understanding these patterns is powerful, because it helps us see how our trauma responses developed and how they may still be playing out today. And most importantly, it’s worth remembering: these inward reactions, as tough as they are, come from a place of enormous strength.

Do you find yourself ghosting, running, or raging? 7:18

✨Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session✨ https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation You’ve probably heard of fight, flight, freeze, please. The first two – fight and flight – are outward, automatic responses. We don’t choose them; they’re our subconscious body–mind going on autopilot, trying to protect us. The problem is, these reactions can be completely out of proportion to what’s actually happening now. When we’re triggered, we can be pulled back to an early trauma, and all that old energy comes rushing out in the present. In fight mode, that might look like rage or attack – even directed at someone who’s innocent. In flight mode, it might be ghosting, running, leaving situations or even whole relationships. These reactions are primitive survival strategies, but left unchecked they can be so damaging – to our relationships, our work, and our lives. That’s why doing the inner work matters. When we start clearing the underlying energy, we have more choice, more control, and gradually those automatic reactions ease and heal.

✨Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session✨ https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation In this video I talk about your power to heal, and how important it is to trust in that ability. Our power to heal doesn’t come from the small, separated self. Healing is love dissolving fear, the greater self subsuming the contracted parts of us that are stuck in trauma. When we’ve been through abuse, neglect, criticism, or any difficult experience, what remains is residue, that stuck energy. Therapy is about bringing the loving, gentle awareness of our greater self, our soul, to those wounded parts. As adults, we already have resources, wisdom, and love that we didn’t have as children. And when we open to our soul, we have even more light to bring to those darkened places. Your ability to heal is built into who you are. You are an eternal child of the Divine, nothing can change or destroy that. Don’t underestimate your strength, courage, wisdom, and love. No part of you is beyond healing. With the right support, with love, all things are possible.

Along the way, we can pick up a lot of traumatic residue, and that’s what I’m here to help with. I’m a psychotherapist, psychologist, and Clinical Hypnotherapist, and my life’s work has been helping people through significant difficulties—usually childhood trauma, but plenty of adult trauma too. Trauma comes in two forms: overt (getting what we don’t need, like being attacked or criticised) and covert (not getting what we do need, like love, attention, and support). Overt trauma is more obvious; covert trauma is hidden and can leave deep, invisible wounds. We often start healing with the obvious trauma before uncovering the hidden patterns. I cover all this in my upcoming book From Trauma Survivor to Soul Warrior, out late 2025.

Symptomatic ways to know we’re living under the weight of invisible childhood trauma 11:25

✨Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session✨ https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation As we go through these times of change and transition, anything stuck inside us — anything unprocessed — is going to feel heavier than ever. Trauma is stuck energy, stuck life experience that hasn’t moved through. It weighs us down like a heavy ballast. And if we’re not clearing it, we’ll feel the burden of it even more. A lot of trauma is invisible. Childhood trauma especially can be really deep, really buried — things we had to push down just to survive. That doesn’t mean it’s not having an impact. It just means we’re incredibly creative and powerful at surviving. But surviving and healing are two different things. These unresolved experiences live on in our body-mind — in our subconscious, in our emotions, even in our cells. They show up as symptoms: anxiety, depression, rage, people-pleasing, withdrawal, ADHD, addictions. We need our therapy, our hypnotherapy, our inner work, our kinesiology, our breathwork — whatever helps unjam the energy and move it through. It’s not easy, but it’s possible. Life gets freer and better when we clear the ballast. So if you haven’t started that deeper work yet — now’s the time. It’s never been more important.

Finding spiritual meaning of our childhood trauma 11:11

✨Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session✨ https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation Over the past few weeks we’ve explored the roots and trunk of healing, and now we’re moving into the branches – the stage where we connect with spirituality. By this point, much of the heavy emotional work has been done. We’ve processed old pain, created space within ourselves, and gained deeper understanding. But without a spiritual perspective, it can feel like we’ve hit a ceiling – freer, yet still questioning why things happened. Branch-level healing helps us find meaning and purpose in our experiences. It’s where we start unwrapping the hidden gifts that trauma leaves behind – resilience, courage, compassion, and wisdom. Many people reach a place where they transform their pain into service, becoming more loving, empathetic, and strong. This stage can even open up deeper conversations about forgiveness and the bigger picture of life. From a soul perspective, what happened doesn’t define or diminish who we truly are – instead, it becomes part of our growth and evolution.

It wasn’t your fault. Bringing in adult understanding of our childhood wounds. 9:01

➡️Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation In this video, I want to talk about trunk level healing — the second stage in the Healing Tree model. If the roots are where we process raw emotional material from trauma, the trunk is where we bring in our adult self — our psychological understanding, our life wisdom, and tools like hypnotherapy. Most trauma happens in childhood, when we don’t have the brain development to process it properly. Those experiences go straight into the subconscious — and often leave us stuck in confusion or self-blame. Trunk level healing is about helping those younger parts understand the truth: it wasn’t your fault. That pain was never about you. We use modern psychology and deeper modalities like hypnotherapy to bring that awareness down into the body — to reach the parts that need it most. Next time, we’ll head up into the branches.

➡️Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation In this video I talk about the Healing Tree — and why we start at the roots. The root system is where the heavy lifting happens. It’s where we meet the raw material of our pain — the unprocessed emotions, memories, and beliefs stuck in the body and mind. Healing means facing that residue with support, compassion, and curiosity. It’s not about fixing or rejecting parts of ourselves — it’s about embracing them so they can shift. The work can be intense. Old emotions, even violent fantasies, can surface. But that’s just energy trying to move. It doesn’t make you a bad person — it makes you human. Go gently, stay steady, and get support when you need it. This is the work that will change your life.

➡️Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation I've had a lot of people asking about the shift we're in right now—this time of transition that’s stirring up so much in us and around us. I won’t pretend to have all the answers, but I wanted to share my current understanding, in case it helps you feel a bit less alone. From what I can tell, we’re living through a kind of energetic split—an intensification between light and shadow, both globally and personally. You might have noticed how much more amplified everything feels lately—when it’s good, it’s amazing… when it’s hard, it’s confronting. It’s like we’re being asked to choose which direction we’re leaning into: love or fear, connection or separation, old patterns or new ways of being. The inner work we’re doing matters now more than ever. This isn’t about being perfect, it’s about showing up—being willing to face what’s in us, heal what we can, and stay grounded through it all. I believe we’re on the biggest ride in the park right now, and the more we surrender to it, trust it, and stay connected to what truly matters—nature, community, creativity, love—the more peaceful and empowered we’ll feel. If this resonates with you, I hope it reminds you you’re not alone. We’re in this together.

Same. Same. Same. A fascinating principle of the subconscious mind. 15:33

منذ 11 weeks15:33

15:33

➡️Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation There’s an incredible principle that operates in the subconscious mind — I call it “same, same, same.” That means when we live something, see something on a screen, or even just imagine it vividly, our subconscious experiences it as the same. That’s why worry, negative thinking, and overexposure to distressing media can have such a powerful effect on our body-mind system. It’s not just psychological — it creates a real physiological response. Our nervous system reacts as though it’s actually happening, even when it’s not. The good news is, this also works in reverse. When we visualise something peaceful, loving or empowering, our subconscious experiences that as reality too. This is where deep healing becomes possible — not by pretending the past didn’t happen, but by changing the internal residue it left behind. That’s why I’m so passionate about this work. Inner child healing. Hypnotherapy. Guided visualisation. These are tools that help us shift from fear and wounding to freedom and wholeness — even if our external circumstances haven’t changed yet. In this podcast, I take you through a short guided process to show you exactly how this works. You’ll create a peaceful sanctuary in your imagination — and notice how quickly your nervous system shifts in response. It’s a beautiful demonstration of just how powerful the subconscious mind really is.

➡️Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation Lately, everything feels more intense — and there’s a reason for that. The energy on the planet is shifting. Things are speeding up, and with that, our unresolved wounds and trauma are being brought to the surface. This podcast explores how “extra triggering” is showing up — not to punish us, but to help us release what we’re carrying. You might notice old pain rising, deep layers surfacing, or a sense of overwhelm. I’ve been feeling it too. The light is increasing, and it’s highlighting any density still within us. In the podcast, I guide you gently inward — helping you connect with the part of you that’s still stuck in fear, pain, or trauma. We meet that part with love, presence, and support. This is how we heal. This is how we bring those lost or hurt parts of ourselves back into wholeness. This practice is for anyone feeling overwhelmed, emotionally activated, or like your inner child is crying out for safety. You don’t need to carry this alone. Let’s go inward — together.

➡️Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation So many people ask me, “How do I find my purpose?” For me, true purpose and meaning don’t come from chasing success or accumulating things. They come from something deeper—our soul. When we’re connected to our spiritual self, when we remember who we really are, we begin to experience real joy, peace and fulfilment. In this video, I talk about what it means to live on the vertical axis—not just surviving the daily grind, but awakening to the deeper truth of who you are. Whether your journey starts in trauma recovery or a quiet yearning for more, that longing for purpose is a call from your soul. This is about plugging back into Source, expressing your gifts, and helping others wake up—just by being who you truly are. If you're on that quest for greater meaning, I’m excited for you. That’s your soul calling you home.

The rollercoaster ride of healing from trauma 8:18

منذ 14 weeks8:18

8:18

In this video, I explore how healing isn’t a linear process. It doesn’t just move in a smooth upward line. Inner work tends to happen in cycles—what I call rinse cycles—where something difficult or unresolved comes up for healing. You might feel triggered, emotional, or completely in the muck of it. It’s messy, uncomfortable, and very real. But if you stay with it—if you face it, feel it, and work through it—something powerful happens. That energy shifts. You come out the other side lighter, freer, with more space in your system. That’s progress. And it tends to follow a pattern: shadow work, then a sense of relief or expansion… then the next layer rises. It can feel like going in circles, but if you zoom out, you’re actually spiralling upward. It’s completely normal to feel like you’ve gone backwards when you hit a tough patch. But you haven’t. It’s just the next layer. Each round brings deeper healing and greater freedom. It’s not always pretty—but it’s always growth. ➡️Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation James Hands Holistic Psychologist Spiritual Hypnotherapist Author and creator of Awaken Therapy https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/ Disclaimer: this episode is for education and information purposes only.

Attending to the unmet needs of our inner child 13:10

➡️Download The Soul Warrior’s Journey - a Free Roadmap & Hypnotherapy Session https://www.awakentherapy.com.au/The-Soul-Warriors-Journey-Through-Childhood-Trauma-to-Transformation In this week's video I’m talking about something that affects us all—our early dependency needs and how they shape us as adults. As babies, we’re completely dependent on others for survival, and if those needs weren’t consistently met—through touch, presence, and responsiveness—it can leave deep imprints that show up later in life as anxiety, neediness, or difficulty in relationships. In the video, I reflect on the ways unmet childhood needs can lead us to unconsciously seek that same care and security from partners, bosses, even spiritual beliefs—when in fact, no one else can truly fill that space for us. That’s why learning to re-parent ourselves is such a vital part of healing. We do that by turning inward, using our adult strengths—our capacity for love, patience, wisdom—and offering them to the parts of ourselves that still feel stuck or scared.
