What if the behaviours and responses you have did not start with you? Recent research has suggested that responses to trauma can be inherited and passed down through generations. Systemic trauma, such as the impacts of racism, war, displacement, and family tragedy, all leave their invisible marks in our DNA and nervous systems. But what does this mean for us? How does this show up, and what can we do about it?
In this talk, Dr Susanna Petche explores the science behind trauma. She will delve into how its effects can appear in our bodies and behaviours years, even generations later. She examines how these inherited responses surface in everyday life and discusses what we can do to address them, offering insights into breaking cycles of intergenerational trauma.
Doors open at 7pm, talk starts at 7:30pm - come down early to grab a good seat!
