Trauma is karma. Karma is trauma.
This equation changes everything.
What you call character flaws are conditioned survival patterns.
The rage that erupts when coffee spills.
The freeze when your boss criticizes.
The helplessness you feel when you "cannot act otherwise."
These are not fate. These are not punishment. These are neural pathways, carved deep, firing in milliseconds.
Between impulse and action lies a window. Inside that span, freedom lives.
In this groundbreaking work, physician and philosopher Fritz H. Hemmerich reveals how trauma and karma are two languages for the same deep conditioning, and demonstrates why our deepest patterns can be interrupted using cutting-edge neuroscience and ancient wisdom. Discover the power of laminar breathing that calms your system in seconds, learn why trauma heals more effectively when we keep the benefit for others in view (Karma Burning), and understand how epigenetic changes can dissolve generations of conditioning. Through trainable practices such as vital-belt awareness and praeemption, you will learn to interrupt automatic patterns — anger, withdrawal, collapse, people-pleasing — and replace them with grounded presence. This isn't another self-help book. It's a roadmap to neurological liberation, with practical 2-minute exercises, moving case studies, and scientific precision that guides you from automatic reacting to conscious responding — from surviving to thriving.

FRITZ H. HEMMERICH, MD, PhD
Fritz H. Hemmerich, MD, PhD, is a physician and philosopher who bridges Western medicine, neuroscience, and contemplative traditions. Born in 1954, Hemmerich served as Chief of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at a major German hospital from 1991 to 2001 before dedicating his practice to salutogenesis — the science of what creates health.
His interdisciplinary approach integrates orthodox medicine, trauma therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Somatic Experiencing, Hakomi, Focusing, and philosophical practice. As director of two health centres in Tenerife and Andalusia, Hemmerich maintains an extensive clinical practice while training practitioners in his integrated methodology. His centres offer trauma therapy, body-oriented psychotherapy, daily guided meditation, seminars, breathwork, biographical work, CardioCeption (Heart Coherence Training), and NeuroCeption — all viewed not as treatments but as training modalities.
The "Trauma = Karma" thesis emerged from recognising that sophisticated karma concepts, stripped of religious overlay, had articulated the full spectrum of traumatic conditioning for two millennia. His approach doesn't contradict classical trauma therapy but offers highly effective complementation through first-person research — a rigorous form of meditation distinct from spiritual bypassing. Since 2018, Hemmerich's online service provides daily, freshly recorded meditation guidance to subscribers across German-speaking Europe. Over 25 years, he has trained many thousands individuals in his consciousness-based approach to transformation
