Adverse Childhood Experiences And Soul Code

Did you know our wellness is linked not only to “Adverse Childhood Experiences” (ACE score) but also to our ancestors? Furthermore, irrespective of our family and cultural backgrounds, we all have childhood baggage and emotional, energetic tags of “trauma” of some sort. Although we may choose to ignore it, by the fifth decade of our life, it will surface and show clear signs. In fact, in some cases, the physical manifestations of the traumatic energy tags stored in our body — in our behavior, life choices, and health — start to show much sooner than our fifties. Consequently, for some, it is too late, and for others, this information can be transformational. So, read on!

Whether a person comes from a family of immigrants, war veterans, a celebrity family, or from a farm, a dysfunctional family, or an abusive relationship, we all have some baggage that we carry. Indeed, we all have had our losses and disappointments, failures, and shocks. Over the last three decades, the scientific community has been working hard on understanding the correlation between emotional wellness and physical wellness. Moreover, the burden of trauma is not compartmentalized from other aspects of our lives. So, how do you define trauma? Well, trauma is an “emotional response” to an extremely distressing event in your life.

I know of some cultures, ethnicities, and family systems that do not acknowledge emotional distress. Emotional outbursts, discussions, and any resources that support emotional wellbeing are considered a sign of weakness. There is often a total shutdown and no acknowledgment around emotional distress. I come from such a culture and family system.

• Very often, you may hear, “...boys don’t cry or have emotional talks. That is a girl [woman] thing.” This was recently said to my 8-year old son, and I had to interject, which of course was not received well by the other party because I am a woman.
• Breaking the shackles of patriarchy and healing the trauma of abandonment and dishonor has been my journey.
• My 8-year old son has had a chronic anxiety issue in the past that has taken me years to heal and help him recover from. I am so proud of him. He is a sweet, kind soul — growing up to process his emotions using his words. Instead of ignoring them or keeping a lid on them because he is a boy. He is learning to be brave and strong in expressing how he “feels.”
• Did you know that it is the Y chromosome, not the X, that gets affected and trauma is transmitted through it to generations? Those who need a refresher on biology, the Y chromosome determines the male sex of the embryo at conception.

Research and scientific studies have proven that some severe traumatic experiences can manifest across multiple generations within families. This phenomenon was known as the transgenerational transmission of trauma (TTT). It refers to the process in which a “traumatic experience” that happened to the first generation is passed on to the next. TTT manifests differently in various generations and may present itself as mental illness, chronic illness, metabolic disease, and some variation of auto-immune disease as well. While some scientists attribute passing down the burden of trauma to factors like family structure or socioeconomic effects, and environments, recent research in the field of Epigenetics has uncovered critical evidence of how our genes express traumatic signs.

Trauma is not an experience that occurs in the past and remains in the past. In fact, the aftermath of trauma accumulates and carries detrimental consequences to future generations. Consequently, it is our responsibility to take charge of our past, present, and future for the sake of our children. That is why the legacy I want to create for my three kids is so important. Furthermore, we must heal our past, make our present joyful, and ensure that we provide our children with healthy emotional, intellectual, and nutritional environments. Ultimately, it all starts with one soul at a time, one household at a time.

This is the reason, I feel the information you can get from your Soul Code can help you heal you and your relationships as well.

• Soul code is an excellent starting point.
• Discovering your Soul Code can help identify the behaviors that have negative energy tags on your DNA. You can break free from those negative patterns.
• You can be aware of how your loved ones react under stress and make sure you understand the power of nature vs. nurture.
• Allow your conscious and soulful actions and choices help you create positive karmic rewards.
• I believe that when your 3-digit Soul Code’s first or third number matches with someone else’s, there is a “soul spark,” and you immediately hit it off with the other person. In addition, you may have a “soulful love bond” that is beyond your intellectual capacities to understand. Furthermore, it is like your soul acknowledges the other person’s soul and vice versa. However, if our egos and trauma don’t take over, we can genuinely experience bliss in our relationships!
