Trauma Trails – Recreating Songlines by Judy Atkinson
Taking readers into the depths of sadness and despair and into the heights of celebration and hope, this disturbing account details the trauma suffered by Australia’s indigenous people and the resultant “trauma trails” spread throughout the country.
It also discusses the aboriginal practice of dadirri, or deep listening from a place of stillness:
Dadirri “is the creation of a space of deep contemplative, heart based listening where stories of trauma and pain can be shared and witnessed with loving acceptance.” excerpt from An Indigenous Approach To Healing Trauma
