Sessions 7–10 – Pattern Exploration & Reframing

Goal: Understand triggers and the protective purpose.

Opening grounding (5 min)

“Breathe in strength, breathe out release.”

Discussion (20 min):

• “What does this pattern protect you from?”

• “What would it mean to trust safety again?”

Cognitive reframing (15 min): Replace beliefs like ‘I must please everyone’ with ‘My needs matter too’.

Exercise:

• Draw a timeline of key events where your response helped you survive.

• Mark one moment you want to rewrite with compassion.

Closing:

“You are more than your trauma. You are learning to choose your responses.”
