I think where we're starving is in recapturing this spiritual energy that we all have access to.
Ever wondered how trauma can shape but not define you? In this episode of the Recovery Podcast, philosopher and performance coach Josh Mantz dives deep into the complex world of trauma, spiritual energy, and personal growth. Mantz, a survivor of moral trauma himself, brings a unique perspective that blends philosophical insights with practical advice. He talks about the crucial difference between virtues and values and how understanding this can help in recapturing your spiritual energy.
Josh also sheds light on various therapy approaches, including the rise of cognitive behavioral therapy, and emphasizes the role of creative expression—like storytelling and music—in processing trauma. He even shares his thoughts on the magic of stringed instruments in capturing the essence of music. Throughout the conversation, Mantz stresses the importance of solitude as a tool for healing. He believes that while trauma can shape us, it doesn't have to define us.
By recognizing the opportunities for growth that come from processing trauma, we can find our own paths to healing. If you're looking for profound insights into trauma and recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
