Brooch

Each of us carries a story within. Not just our own. We carry traces of events experienced by our ancestors. The fates of our grandfather, grandmother, and parents leave traces within us. Issues related to intergenerational trauma show that the state of our psyche can affect the biological activity of our body’s cells. At the same time, there are mechanisms that cause these changes to be inherited. The consequences of this stay with us and bind our present to the past like a brooch. Sometimes, this family heritage can be overwhelming.
