lyrics

Virtually every week there's a study
That more and more people are needing or seeking help for mental health issues
More and more in youth are diagnosed with anxiety
Many more kids are diagnosed
With the whole plethora of childhood conditions such as ADHD
Attention deficite hyperactive disorder
Depression is rising
Youth suicide is rising
Addictions are rising
Genuinely it's an epidemic
And I'm very passionate about it for a simple reason
Because in thirty years or more of medical practice
What I found was that the common template for virtually all afflictions
Mental illness, physical disease is in fact trauma

You're waiting for somebody to scream at you
You're waiting for something to be thrown
You don't know if you're going to eat
You don't know if your going to be evicted
So you're constantly anxious and stressed
I used to think this was a rarity but when I talk to people
A huge number of people have this traumatic experience as a child
That they carry with Them
It's like a monkey on your back
When we realize that our traumatic responses and imprints are not ourselves
And that we can work them through
And thus become ourselves

Because it's too painful to be ourselves
And what they do is they disconnect from themselves

When you disconnect from yourself
You no longer have yourself
You lost yourself
When we talk about trauma
We usually think of something terrible happening to a person
But that's not the only trauma there is
And so the other kind of trauma may not have to do
With terrible things happening to you
Parents who are so alienated from their own gut feelings
That they will let their infants cry - that's all it takes
During your first eighteen years of life
If a parent or other adult in the household often or very often would swear at you
Insult you, put you down or humiliate you: Step inside the circle
Step inside the circle
Step inside the circle
Mental illness, physical disease is in fact trauma

Fundamentally the message is that with our minds we create the world

So authenticity is not some new age, pseudo spiritual concept
It's actually a survival necessity

Fundamentally the message is that with our minds we create the world
