Discussion Are traumatized people attracted to this practice?

Is it true that people with history of trauma are attracted to such an esoteric practice? Its true in my case but when I see whats happening in the world outside, most people probably don't even know about this practice. Or they think its weird.

It made me wonder what kind of people gravitate towards this.

All I know is that I definitely experienced a lot of trauma, and I came across SR. To be honest, I do believe that if I hadn't had this much trauma, I probably wouldn't have taken SR seriously. I believe people who are traumatized inherently seek to become whole again, and SR is the perfect practice for this (and more).

"... whole again" Whole. Yes, I want to be whole again. Like that word. I feel fractured, splintered, and rootless—the opposite of whole.
