Choose five words that you associate with your traumatic experience and write a short reflection on each.

Words hold power, and they can serve as simple but effective tools to express and explore your trauma. Are there words that trigger certain responses in you or words that you feel encapsulate your experience? Write about why you chose each, the emotions or memories it evokes, and how those associations might have changed over time. This offers a form of symbolic confrontation that can aid in emotional processing.
