Emerson writes that attempted abortion trauma is the most severe of all early traumas. He believes that each of us has a core personality which even severe trauma does not touch. After trauma is resolved what is left is our spirit. This is from whence comes our real self - our uniqueness and human potential. This is the source, he writes, of our collective unconscious, our ancestoral memories and Jungian archetypes.
