ℹ🌿 HOW TO HELP YOUR CLIENTS UNDERSTAND THEIR WINDOW OF TOLERANCE- [INFOGRAPHIC]

Our clients are best able to cope with stressors and triggers when they’re operating within their window of tolerance.

But a traumatic experience can narrow our clients’ window of tolerance, leading to states of either hyper- or hypo-arousal.

So we created this infographic as a tool you can share with your clients. It can help you explain what’s going on when they’re feeling dysregulated. Plus, this will help to support the exercises and work you do together as an important part of healing.

ℹ️🌿 ALWAYS ALERT – HYPERVIGILANCE IN COMPLEX POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER |

Even those who go through trauma later in life, either complex and long-term or one single event, can get their life-skills affected and changed. One example for a changed life-skill is hypervigilance, a symptom present in most victims of trauma. While vigilance, an awareness of what is going on around you, reading people right, knowing when a situation is triggering, is important, in hypervigilance that quickly gets out of proportion. A constant reading of the environment, not trusting people around you, and always expecting a threat, can be both draining mentally and physically. And can have a very negative effect on one’s life and relationships. While hypervigilance is also a symptom experienced by those suffering from anxiety and PTSD, I want to focus on its presence in those struggling with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Caregiver Trauma: Breaking the Trauma Cycle

ℹ️🌿HOW A CAREGIVER’S TRAUMA CAN IMPACT A CHILD’S DEVELOPMENT + INFOGRAPHIC | BY NICABM

When someone experiences trauma, its physical and emotional effects can sometimes impact their children – and this can begin in utero.

You see, during times of stress, the body releases cortisol – and as you know, that’s one of the ways our body helps us cope with physically or emotionally difficult situations.

But when trauma elevates cortisol to unhealthy levels, it can have an epigenetic impact – not only on the client, but on their children as well.

So how can this happen?...."

Neuroscience and Anger Management:

"ℹ️🌿 WHY AM I ANGRY ALL THE TIME? IT MAY BE INSECURE ATTACHMENT | Dr Dr. Aimie

Do you find yourself feeling angry all the time? Maybe small things keep bother you, or you find yourself getting more irritated by things that normally wouldn’t cause you to react in such a manner. Maybe you’ve always been really angry, as long as you can remember.

Just like fear, anger is a normal emotion. When it’s out of balance it can actually help you to understand yourself better and encourage you to make the changes you need to in order to have a happy and healthy life."
