Hyper-Association: When We Fragment Back to Trauma

This revolutionary chapter explores hyper-association - the process where we fragment back to the age and emotional state of our original trauma. Unlike dissociation, hyper-association is a full-body return to past states. The chapter provides detailed recognition tools, integration strategies, and personal stories of healing fragmented parts.
