WHEN LITTLE THINGS HAVE BIG IMPACTS…

How are you really feeling? A bit blah,

a little bit meh, or simply ‘I don’t actually know’? You can’t quite put your finger on it, but you just don’t feel like you’re truly participating in your own life? 

This is the result of a build-up of life’s psychological scrapes, papercuts and bruises. Emotional blunting, microaggressions, family relationships, childhood humiliations, toxic positivity and gaslighting are all examples of ‘Tiny T’ trauma, the impact of which often leads to problems such as high-functioning anxiety, languishing, maladaptive perfectionism, comfort eating and sleep disturbance.

Tiny T traumas are the experiences that shape our lives. They impact the way we interact with the world around us, and can have the most detrimental effects on our health and wellbeing. Yet so many of us feel guilty for even mentioning them, let alone seeking help for them.

These traumas blur the lines between mental wellness and illness – you feel you’re not quite symptomatic enough to receive a diagnosis or treatment, but you certainly aren’t flourishing. In fact, you’re probably feeling completely overwhelmed and exhausted by life, going through the motions yet never feeling truly OK.

With over 20 years of research and therapeutic experience, Dr. Meg Arroll has developed crucial strategies to Acknowledge, Accept, Act and move on from our Tiny T traumas and the harm they are causing . 

Sold to 37 Publishers around the world so far, with Publishers far and wide hailing it as a total mental health game-changer…this book can and will generate a movement allowing readers to ‘Acknowledge, Accept, Act’ and move on from our Tiny T traumas and the harm they are causing.
