Psychological Insight
Trauma is not what happens to you. Trauma is what happens inside you, as a result of what happened to you.
— Gabor Maté
आघात वह नहीं है जो आपके साथ होता है। आघात वह है जो आपके साथ हुई घटना के परिणामस्वरूप आपके भीतर होता है।
— गेबर माटे

Why this matters:
Trauma is the internal wound or disconnect from oneself that persists long after a stressful event has ended. Focusing on this internal response allows us to begin the work of reconnecting and repairing the self.
यह क्यों मायने रखता है:
आघात वह आंतरिक घाव या स्वयं से अलगाव है जो तनावपूर्ण घटना समाप्त होने के बहुत बाद भी बना रहता है। इस आंतरिक प्रतिक्रिया पर ध्यान केंद्रित करने से हमें स्वयं को फिर से जोड़ने और मरम्मत करने का काम शुरू करने की अनुमति मिलती है।
