@misen__ what do you mean by trauma in the present context?
Well in light of Michael’s comment it seems important to note that I was referring to knots held in the psycho-physical system which cause impairment to normal functioning and require specific targeted techniques to resolve. That covers a large range - perhaps too large.

I’m not a psychologist or a meditation teacher - I’m just poking around for information here, seeing what more experienced practitioners have to say. Listening to some senior meditators, it seems like there are some important distinction to be made on an individual basis.

Personally I’ve worked through stuff which was really unpleasant - such that I was coached through in a context of resolving trauma. But, I don’t know how that process differs from standard purification stuff expected in serious meditation practice, vs someone with serious PTSD.
