Tattoos For Trauma: A Modern Approach To Healing in a Traumatized World
A New Pathway for Healing Stress, Anxiety, and Emotional Disorders
Are you feeling stressed, depressed or anxious, and struggling to manage your day-to-day life?
In a world plagued by emotional distress and suffering, Tattoos for Trauma emerges as a beacon of hope in the darkness of despair.
This innovative service, provided by Halifax tattoo artist Oliver Wassef, uniquely blends his expertise in Clinical Emotional Freedom Techniques with the art of tattooing and sigil creation.
By harnessing the transformative power of tattoos alongside contemporary therapeutic methods, this approach offers a new pathway for trauma recovery.
Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT): A Research Backed Method
Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) is a modern form of science backed healing. It combines acupressure, exposure therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy to help individuals gain self-awareness and alleviate the pressure caused by stress, anxiety, depression and other emotional turbulences.
Acupressure help to re-balance the flow of energy through the body which is disrupted by traumatic experiences. Exposure therapy helps individuals to release the emotional “charge” associated with the experience. Furthermore CBT encourages individuals to identify and reframe the underlying negative thought patterns and beliefs that fuel the emotional distress.
EFT is a versatile technique that offers a pathway to healing and fosters greater inner peace and self understanding.
Evidence Based
EFT is supported by over 150 studies demonstrating its effectiveness for a wide range of psychological and physical conditions.
Regulate Stress Response
EFT can significantly decrease cortisol levels, helping your body and mind better manage stress and process traumatic memories.
Widespread Recognition
EFT is used by a range of healthcare and healing professionals worldwide due to its accessibility and powerful self-help nature.
Unlike conventional therapy where professionals diagnose and administer ongoing treatments, EFT seeks to create an equal dynamic. It equips individuals with the necessary tools to independently manage their well-being and facilitate their own healing process, rather than require continuous reliance on external sources.
You Can:
Alleviate stress, anxiety, and depression: By tapping on specific acupressure points, EFT rebalances your body's energy flow, often disrupted by trauma.
Release emotional charges: Safely process and diminish the intensity of feelings associated with difficult experiences through gentle exposure.
Reframe negative thought patterns: Identify and challenge underlying beliefs that contribute to emotional distress, fostering healthier perspectives.
Gain self-awareness and inner peace: Develop a deeper understanding of your emotions and build resilience.
Sigils And Tattoos: A Symbol Of Your Intention
Sigils are symbols charged with a specific and focused intention that act as anchors for your desires and healing goals. Working collaboratively with Oliver, a personalized sigil will be developed based on insights gained during your one-on-one Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) sessions.
This unique symbol will then be tattooed on your skin, becoming a permanent reminder and amplifier of your intention for healing, protection, prosperity, or other outcomes you seek.
The physical experience of receiving a tattoo, with its inherent pain and intensity, infuses the sigil with energy, forging a strong connection to the individual and activating its inherent power.
Drawing upon the ancient traditions of tattooing as a ceremonial practice for initiation, exploration, and empowerment in tribal and ritualistic cultures worldwide, Tattoos for Trauma uniquely blends tattooing with the art of Sigil Creation.
The creation and application of sigils are rooted in the age-old belief that focused intention, consciously directed and symbolically encoded, can influence both our internal and external realities. The act of sigilization itself – the process of condensing a desire or affirmation into a distinct visual form – is crucial in charging the symbol with its intended potency.
Tattoos by Oliver that incorporate sigils:
The Berserker Symbol
Refers to motifs associated with the Norse warriors known as Berserkers, who were believed to fight with a frenzied fury, likened to the strength of bears or wolves. The symbol represents ferocity, bravery, and a connection to the primal instincts of battle.
Anubis and the Ankh
Anubis, the jackal-headed Egyptian god, guided souls and protected the dead in the afterlife. The ankh, a cross with a looped top, symbolized the "key of life," representing the connection between the physical and spiritual worlds and eternal life.
Interconnectedness
This personalized sigil, as stated by the client, represents connection to the earth and the cosmos. This sigil was custom made by Oliver.
