This goes beyond your conscious choices and is something that we are&nbsp;all affected by&nbsp;no matter where we were born or who our family is.<\/p>\n<p>Today (a lot of us) have more opportunities, comforts, luxuries, and easy access to shelter, food, and water than ever before. We may face economic hardship, abuse, and mental-emotional instability, but it might not even be comparable to that which our parents and grandparents lived.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a1Analic\u00e9moslo! \u00bfQu\u00e9 tipo de vida tuvieron nuestros ancestros m\u00e1s recientes?<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfQu\u00e9 tipo de infancia tuvieron nuestros padres, abuelos y bisabuelos?<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfCu\u00e1les fueron los obst\u00e1culos con los que se enfrentaban a diario?<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfEn qu\u00e9 tipo de sociedad vivieron?<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfSe les anim\u00f3 a decir su verdad y sentir sus emociones?<\/p>\n<p>Were they encouraged to follow their hearts and dreams, or were they only offered a very limited amount of options for their life?<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfTuvieron f\u00e1cil acceso a alimentos y refugio?<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfExperimentaron situaciones que amenazaron sus vidas?<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfFueron profundamente satisfechos y felices?<\/p>\n<p>Lo m\u00e1s loco de esta exploraci\u00f3n es darte cuenta cu\u00e1n dr\u00e1sticamente diferente es el mundo de hoy en comparaci\u00f3n a solo 100 a\u00f1os atr\u00e1s. La vida de nuestros ancestros m\u00e1s recientes puede no parecerse en nada a la nuestra.<\/p>\n<h2>Hace unos meses fui a comer con mi abuela paterna y me puse a preguntarle de su infancia, su vida, su familia.<\/h2>\n<p>Era una hu\u00e9rfana que perdi\u00f3 ambos padres a los 7 a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n<p>Su padre era un minero que muri\u00f3 a causa de una lesi\u00f3n en la cabeza que sufri\u00f3 durante un accidente de trabajo. A los 83 a\u00f1os todav\u00eda pod\u00eda describir con incre\u00edble detalle el d\u00eda en que muri\u00f3 su padre y su madre se qued\u00f3 sola con 6 hijos\u20143 ni\u00f1as y 3 ni\u00f1os.<\/p>\n<p>Su mam\u00e1 comenz\u00f3 a trabajar en una f\u00e1brica para mantener a la familia pero solo 2 a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s de la muerte de su esposo muri\u00f3 de apendicitis.<\/p>\n<p>Mi abuela y sus hermanos se volvieron hu\u00e9rfanos.<\/p>\n<p>Su familia us\u00f3 la situaci\u00f3n como una oportunidad para robar las tierras de mis bisabuelos (la herencia de mi abuela y sus hermanos), y solo cuidaban a los ni\u00f1os por obligaci\u00f3n familiar sin ning\u00fan amor o cuidado verdadero por ellos.<\/p>\n<p>Separaron a los ni\u00f1os en contra de su voluntad, enviaron a los ni\u00f1os a la ciudad y mantuvieron a las ni\u00f1as en el campo para trabajar.<\/p>\n<p>Forzaron a mi abuela y sus hermanas a trabajar todo el d\u00eda en el campo sin zapatos. Fueron tratadas como trabajadores y fueron abusadas verbal y f\u00edsicamente.<\/p>\n<p>Sus posesiones m\u00e1s preciadas eran piedras de r\u00edo sobre las que hab\u00edan dibujado mu\u00f1ecas...<\/p>\n<h2>Y, \u00bftus abuelos?<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s really humbling to learn about these things because it makes us realize how incredibly fortunate we are\u2026 And yet,&nbsp;how much do we really take into consideration the effect this traumatic imprinting may be having on us too?<\/p>\n<p>Mi bisabuelo (el padre de mi abuela) fue un revolucionario que luch\u00f3 por la independencia de M\u00e9xico\u2026 De hecho, muchos de nuestros ancestros recientes existieron en un mundo donde ten\u00edan que luchar por sus DERECHOS B\u00c1SICOS. Como seres humanos, como mujeres y por sus hijos\u2026<\/p>\n<p>La esclavitud fue abolida hace solo unas pocas generaciones (quiz\u00e1s 5-6) y estamos entendiendo que \u00a1tenemos una huella epigen\u00e9tica de hasta 14 generaciones atr\u00e1s!<\/p>\n<p>Piensa en eso por un segundo.<\/p>\n<h2>Nuestras familias vivieron situaciones que amenazaban sus vidas. Muchas veces ten\u00edan derechos limitados. No ten\u00edan las oportunidades de crecimiento econ\u00f3mico que tenemos hoy. No ten\u00edan las comodidades. No ten\u00edan las herramientas para sanar, y muchas veces ni contenci\u00f3n mental-emocional.<\/h2>\n<p>Venimos de un linaje de auto-cr\u00edtica, abuso, represi\u00f3n y control\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfQu\u00e9 tipo de realidad interior ten\u00eda mi abuela cuando era hu\u00e9rfana y trabajaba en el campo?<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfQu\u00e9 tipo de realidad interior ten\u00eda mi abuelo cuando decidi\u00f3 arriesgar su vida por la libertad de su pueblo?<\/p>\n<p>Ten\u00edan problemas reales... y nosotros \u00a1con trabajamos podemos con las que tenemos!<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t say this to shame us. I share it to give perspective. The truth is&nbsp;I believe this awareness can help us practice more compassion.<\/p>\n<p>En nuestra cultura, algunas de las personas m\u00e1s exitosas que hemos visto han muerto de sobredosis o han tomado la decisi\u00f3n consciente de suicidarse.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a1Algunas de las personas m\u00e1s exitosas que hemos visto!<\/p>\n<p>Si alguien que lo tiene todo puede sentirse tan solo, tan angustiado, tan roto y tan desesperanzado como para quitarse la vida\u2026 \u00bfc\u00f3mo se sent\u00edan nuestros ancestros frente a problemas mucho m\u00e1s graves que los nuestros?<\/p>\n<p>No se anim\u00f3 a las personas a decir su verdad, a sanar, a seguir sus corazones, a ser libres\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfC\u00f3mo se sintieron? \u00bfC\u00f3mo se adaptaron? \u00bfQu\u00e9 hicieron para protegerse?<\/p>\n<p>Sentarse a reflexionar sobre esto abre tus ojos.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of our ancestors lived in survival, fear, grief, disappointment and a feeling of helplessness. There was no other way to feel.&nbsp;It was a natural and logical mental-emotional response to what life was for them.<\/p>\n<p>Y, esa informaci\u00f3n vive adentro de nosotros.<\/p>\n<h2>Esto podr\u00eda explicar por qu\u00e9 algunas personas que no han tenido muchas experiencias traum\u00e1ticas a\u00fan pueden experimentar enormes dificultades mentales y emocionales para funcionar en la vida.<\/h2>\n<p>Est\u00e1 en su programaci\u00f3n...<\/p>\n<p>We do not choose to inherit this programming nor can we consciously just decide that we don\u2019t want it. It\u2019s part of&nbsp;who we are&nbsp;and is intrinsically tied into our process of healing and inner evolution.<\/p>\n<p>Las experiencias de nuestros padres, abuelos y ancestros viven adentro de nuestro cuerpo, ADN y sistema nervioso.<\/p>\n<p>Sus experiencias afectan la forma en que percibimos la realidad y la forma en que respondemos a la vida.<\/p>\n<p>Piense en las caracter\u00edsticas tuyas que son similares a las de tus hermanos, padres y familiares cercanos. Piensa en las din\u00e1micas de relaci\u00f3n que tienden a repetirse. Piensa en los problemas mentales y emocionales que com\u00fanmente enfrenta tu familia.<\/p>\n<p>This is a real thing that goes beyond learned behavior and actually has to do with&nbsp;deeply ingrained unconscious programming on the biological level.<\/p>\n<p>Cuando lo miras desde esta perspectiva es obvio por qu\u00e9 tantas personas viven con estr\u00e9s, ansiedad y depresi\u00f3n a pesar de que no tienen que lidiar ni con la mitad de lo que tuvieron que enfrentar nuestros ancestros.<\/p>\n<h2>Vivimos en el presente, pero nuestros cuerpos a\u00fan viven en el pasado. Est\u00e1n programados en la supervivencia y el miedo.<\/h2>\n<p>Cuanto m\u00e1s entiendo todo esto, m\u00e1s me doy cuenta de que la falta de conciencia sobre el trauma probablemente es una de las razones m\u00e1s significativas por la mala salud mental-emocional de nuestra familia global.<\/p>\n<p>Somos una cultura traumatizada. Hemos atravesado guerras, hambre extrema, y dificultad que actualmente muchos ni podr\u00edamos imaginar.<\/p>\n<p>Our ancestors&#8217; bodies created self-protective strategies that at the time allowed them to survive, but now keep us in limitation and suffering despite the tools, support, and potential that is available to us.<\/p>\n<p>Es por eso que creo que expandir nuestra comprensi\u00f3n del trauma ancestral y tomar el tiempo para aprender sobre la historia de nuestra familia es incre\u00edblemente poderoso e importante.<\/p>\n<p>Puede ayudarnos a obtener una perspectiva m\u00e1s ampl\u00eda de por qu\u00e9 somos como somos y a qu\u00e9 nos \u201cenfrentamos\u201d cuando decidimos sanar.<\/p>\n<h2>Si entendi\u00e9ramos que el trauma es generacional...<\/h2>\n<p>We would understand why for so many of us self-improvement strategies based on willpower, discipline, and force do not work.&nbsp;There is information within our programming (belief structures and hidden emotions) that needs to be transmuted and no amount of willpower will ever allow us to skip over them and just get to the other side (Remember, energy cannot be destroyed, it can only be transformed. Physics 101).<\/p>\n<p>We would understand that so much of healing is about creating safety in the body.&nbsp;Teaching the body to relax and bringing it into the present moment where it is not facing any real dangers.<\/p>\n<p>We would make healing on a nervous system level as important as going to therapy or seeing a psychologist.&nbsp;Unfortunately, addressing trauma in the body is commonly overlooked in healing and many still try to heal by just talking about the past versus actually doing the work necessary to rewire the brain and body.<\/p>\n<p>We would be&nbsp;more patient and less judgmental of ourselves&nbsp;because we would understand that there is nothing wrong with us for having the psycho-emotional problems that we have. A lot of our behavior and programming has nothing to do with our conscious choices and is automatic.<\/p>\n<p>We would let go of the internal pressure to change overnight and we would understand that our healing journey requires time as we release limitation layer by layer.<\/p>\n<p>We might be&nbsp;more compassionate with our partners, parents and immediate family members&nbsp;understanding more deeply that there are many unconscious forces at play within any relationship dynamic.<\/p>\n<p>We would understand that even if we have had \u201crelatively good lives\u201d&nbsp;we may still have a lot of healing to do,&nbsp;and that every unconscious reaction or self-sabotaging tendency within us is there for a reason.<\/p>\n<h2>Hay tanto poder en expandir nuestra comprensi\u00f3n del trauma ancestral porque nos recuerda que no estamos sanando solo para nosotros.<\/h2>\n<p>When we really understand that within us we hold information from the experiences of 14 generations past we can also deduce that&nbsp;we pass on information from our experiences to 14 generations after us.<\/p>\n<p>En otras palabras, nuestra sanaci\u00f3n, nuestras decisiones de c\u00f3mo vivir nuestras vidas y las experiencias que vivimos afectar\u00e1n a nuestros hijos, nietos, etc.<\/p>\n<p>No estamos sanando solo para nosotros. Podemos preparar el camino para la felicidad futura de aquellos que vienen despu\u00e9s de nosotros.<\/p>\n<p>(Si no tienes hijos esto sigue siendo aplicable para ti porque como conciencia colectiva todas nuestras decisiones y experiencias influyen en la informaci\u00f3n dentro del colectivo. Nuestra decisi\u00f3n de sanar sana a otros tambi\u00e9n.)<\/p>\n<p>La conciencia sobre el trauma ancestral nos permite ser m\u00e1s amables con nosotros mismos.<\/p>\n<p>A m\u00ed me ha ayudado a practicar m\u00e1s compasi\u00f3n y m\u00e1s aceptaci\u00f3n por muchas cosas de mi persona que no me gustaban. Me ha hecho entender que hay razones por las que soy como soy y, por lo tanto, me ha dado la conciencia que me permite ser m\u00e1s amable conmigo misma.<\/p>\n<p>No solo estoy sanando mi propio trauma y las experiencias dolorosas y confusas que he tenido en mi vida, sino que tambi\u00e9n estoy sanando el trauma de mi abuela. El de mi abuelo. El de mi bisabuelo. Etc\u00e9tera.<\/p>\n<h2>Sanar el trauma no es algo que suceda por s\u00ed solo con el paso del tiempo.<\/h2>\n<p>This is a really important point to become aware of as we often hear &#8220;time heals everything&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t believe it does.<\/p>\n<p>Sanar nuestro trauma (que inevitablemente incluye el de nuestros ancestros) es el resultado de tomar la decisi\u00f3n consciente de sanar. Requiere que encontremos formas de acceder a nuestro sistema nervioso y cuerpo para liberar la energ\u00eda reprimida densa de las capas m\u00e1s profundas de nuestro ser.<\/p>\n<p>Afortunadamente, tenemos acceso a muchas m\u00e1s herramientas para la liberaci\u00f3n de traumas de las que necesitamos.<\/p>\n<p>Personalmente, mis herramientas favoritas son el breathwork y los psicod\u00e9licos, pero te sugiero que hagas tu propia investigaci\u00f3n y pruebes los que te llamen la atenci\u00f3n. Si encuentras algo que te funciona, no lo sueltes.<\/p>\n<p>Comprender hasta d\u00f3nde llega nuestro trauma nos recuerda que no podemos esperar soluciones r\u00e1pidas o liberar por completo la programaci\u00f3n psico-emocional ancestral limitada despu\u00e9s de una sola sesi\u00f3n o una terapia.<\/p>\n<p>It is a shedding process that in this physical reality may always&nbsp;require time.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"op3-element__image op3-element-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/claudiaesquivel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Con-amor-Claudia-Esquivel-1.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"With love, Claudia Esquivel black letters\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" data-op3-attachment-id=\"2223\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"op3-element__image op3-element-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/claudiaesquivel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/other-optoion-3.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"other-optoion-3\" width=\"1024\" height=\"708\" data-op3-attachment-id=\"5615\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If something resonated with you while reading this, I invite you to stay connected!
