Tragically, this is my reality and the truth about human nature. It is easier to suffer in silence than acknowledge the painful things that happen to us. Over 20 years ago, researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Kaiser...

Brockton's Family Resource Center offers Trauma Informed Yoga for Kids
“The children may not be fully focused on every pose (they are still kids) but they are still learning them.
