Jac: After physical trauma, severe blood loss, heatstroke, or a serious allergic reaction, a person may experience a sudden drop of blood flow through the body. This acute medical condition is called shock. Most people are aware of this as a possibility after an accident or some kind of trauma.

However, have you ever heard of emotional shock?

Jeri: Yes, and I can certainly think of several instances that could cause emotional shock. For example:

• A widowed friend who had a hip replacement over 8 months ago, and she is still bothered by the pain.

• A client caught her husband of 45 years viewing pornography. She had no idea it had been going on for years.

• Another client, a young woman, returned home from her 18 month mission early because she was ill. We discovered that the root of her illness was caused by unwanted advances from a sister missionary companion.

• A young mother unexpectedly lost her first baby while in labor.

Jac: Those all sound like intense, traumatic experiences.

Jeri: Yes, and I believe that each of these people were suffering from emotional shock. Too many times people don’t even recognize they are in emotional shock, but when the root is uncovered, healing is possible.

Jac: I agree that healing is absolutely possible. What was your approach in helping your clients find the emotional roots that helped them heal from emotional shock?

Jeri: People often disconnect from the real culprit that is causing their pain or illness. For me, using doses of enlightenment to dig deep and get to the roots and boulders of the issue works every time. It is a wonderful experience to assist someone in reconnecting and releasing the beast of trauma.

Jac: Haha trauma can definitely be a beast! If you feel you have been suffering from emotional shock from a traumatic experience, there’s a dose of enlightenment below.

If you aren’t sure, you might be curious to know several of the signs of emotional shock. These seven signs from Harley Therapy (linked below) sums them up nicely:

1. You feel afraid. Suddenly life feels dangerous and unpredictable.

2. You can’t think straight (including brain fog, feeling disconnected, and feeling like you’re floating outside of your body).

3. You are experiencing physical side effects (like racing heartbeat, muscle tension, headaches, upset stomach, and other random aches, pains, and illnesses).

4. You feel strangely exhausted. Your sleep is affected (insomnia, dream-disturbed sleep, etc.)

5. You are all over the place. Flipping from feeling powerful to feeling like a victim. Cycling through shame, blame, and guilt.

6. You feel like (and are acting like) someone else entirely. You find yourself doing things you normally wouldn’t do, or isolating yourself.

7. Things just seem, well… pointless. Life has lost it’s meaning.

Love from Jeri and Jac
