Hello Empath
Are you in need of a Full Emotional Detox? Have things got so bad that you are looking for a Permanent Solution to get rid of Triggers and Anxious Overthinking? Not just put a band aid on them?
Welcome to Return to Inner Peace where Empaths & HSP’s Finally come First!
On this website I will show you how Expressive Journaling & Somatic Integration can combine to create a Lasting Healing Solution against Emotional Wounds.
Making you more Grounded, Rested and at Peace.
My name is Rodney Davison an Empath & Healer who has overcome crippling anxious overthinking to become the person I am today. I did that by creating a 6 Question Wound Finder Journal that combined with a specific guided meditation helped me remove triggers, wounds and overthinking one episode at a time.
Because of this My Vision now is a World where Empaths become the Strong, Peaceful People they were Always Meant to Be.
My Core Beliefs are the Power to Heal Naturally when appropriate and Getting to The Root Cause of Emotional Issues. I am also very independent, so if you are anything like me then my method of journaling and guided meditations might be for you too.
Whether you’ve resonated with the term Empath or HSP for a while or you just see yourself as different, I have 5 questions to see if my method is for you or not:
DO YOU FIND YOURSELF REPEATEDLY GETTING TRIGGERED BY THE SAME KINDS OF SITUATIONS, MORE THAN YOU WOULD LIKE?
DOES IT MAKE YOU OVERACT OR SHUT DOWN? THEN ANXIOUSLY OVERTHINK FOR A WHOLE DAY OR NIGHT AT A TIME?
ARE YOU OPEN TO HOLISTIC PRACTICES LIKE GUIDED MEDITATIONS?
DOES USING YOUR INTUITION THROUGH WRITING SEEM INTERESTING?
AND LASTLY, DO YOU FEEL READY TO EXPLORE YOUR INNER WORLD TO TRY TO FIND AND HEAL POSSIBLE EMOTIONAL WOUNDS?

The Combined Method
Expressive Journaling
Writing expressively about the trigger and where it may have originated is the first practice.
Somatic Integration
The second practice is to release / integrate the emotional wound through the body.
Pain points
HEAD PAIN & STRESS FROM ALWAYS GETTING TRIGGERRED?
We all get angry or shut down sometimes but do you seem to get triggered by the same things over and over and experience pain, stress and overthinking? If so you could well have an emotional wound that is crying out to be healed.
IRRITABILITY FROM SLEEPLESS NIGHTS?
We all need quality sleep to feel refreshed each day. Episodes of overthinking cause you to ruminate on past or future conversations, we can distract ourselves in the day time but at night we are completely alone with our thoughts making it harder to ignore and get quality sleep.
TIRED OF HEARING THE SAME THINGS FROM PEOPLE?
You should get anger management? You should quit your job? Stop stressing? You should try Anti depressants? You probably have ADHD? Or maybe you are being ignored? There is nothing wrong with some of these things but if you are like I was, then you might be looking for a more long term natural solution to what I see as a natural problem.
STRUGGLING TO EXPRESS YOURSELF?
If you struggle to to express your thoughts and feelings or even if you find it easy to talk, journaling expressively opens up your creative right side of the brain, whilst using the logical left side at the same time. With this, opens a window to more unearthed feelings, thoughts and perspectives.
NOT FEELING WORTHY ENOUGH FOR HELP?
This can look like when we say that, ‘others have had it worse than me growing up.’ This can stop us from ever looking at our own emotional wounds and past traumas.
Pretty much everyone has moments and times that are not great and you will be surprised at which events may have caused wounds and at how healing some of those early traumas can make a big difference in your life.

Possible benefits
BECOMING CLEAR MINDED
Healing trauma can reduce or remove triggers meaning outbursts and anxious overthinking will be reduced or removed. A more clear mind is the outcome.
GETTING GOOD RESTFUL SLEEP
Once you get into using this method whenever you need it, it is hoped that the things that kept you awake before will start to dissolve one by one.
HEALING TRAUMA TRAPPED IN THE BODY
Dr Bradley Nelson believes that a trapped emotion is a ball of energy that will lodge anywhere in the body and disrupt the normal energy field of the body.
Somatic healing has long been used to untrap these emotions/balls of energy.

BECOMING MORE IN TOUCH WITH YOUR INTUITION
Expressive journaling naturally improves your connection with your intuition. And intuition can help us make the right decisions for ourselves when we are really unsure of say two choices. Helping us move towards the life we were meant to live over time.
RETURNING TO YOUR TRUE PEACEFUL SELF
Healing traumas can return parts of you back to your true peaceful nature. Making you also more grounded and strong in your empathic nature.

Is this for everyone? No..
Facing traumas and old wounds may be a scary prospect for some so should not be done if you don’t feel ready or if recommended not to by your doctor.
The use of journaling and guided meditations is widely used for personal alone use but if you have been diagnosed with depression, PTSD or are feeling suicidal then please consult your doctor or ring Samaritans (UK).

Does it work? Not always..
It is possible that journaling or guided meditations don’t work for you. You might find other things work better for you. Or if all you feel is slightly more relaxed after a guided meditation then that is really good.

How this Method helped me
To look at me now you might not think that I used to act out quite a lot?! And the funny thing is, I knew others were looking at me thinking I was weird for blowing up or shutting down over seemingly minor things. But I literally couldn’t help it.

About me
Childhood Trauma
So, believe it or not, a common ROOT CAUSE of being triggered and anxiously overthinking can be emotional wounds from childhood trauma.
I would say that we all carry around at least some trauma from our childhoods and this is usually not a problem. However, if they are having an adverse affect on your emotional peace and quality of sleep then it might be worth seeing if you can do something about it.
It is widely believed that trauma in the body happens when your central nervous system gets stuck in fight, flight freeze or fawn mode and creates a lasting emotional wound (Peter Levine, Gabor Maté et al). If that emotion is re-triggered you can experience instant outbursts or shut downs. This can lead to overthinking, head pain and anxious sensations in the body.
Traumatic events can be one event like receiving or witnessing physical or verbal abuse or ongoing subtle events like emotional unavailability, gaslighting or narcissism. Also what may be traumatic for one person may not be for another. Even something small that wasn’t resolved, apologised or reassured properly might affect us in adulthood.
You can experience trauma at any time in life but it is believed that the formative years of childhood creates the most opportunity for trauma to create emotional wounds as we are still developing and also we can often not escape or fight so the freeze or fawn mode is often activated.
