Trauma doesn’t erase emotions — it alters access to them.

When the nervous system has learned to stay protected, feelings may feel muted, confusing, or hard to describe. This isn’t failure. It’s an intelligent survival response.

Do you find it challenging to recognize and describe how you feel? Let us know in the comments below 🌿

At Rewire Trauma Therapy, we work with the body to gently restore emotional safety — so connection can return naturally.

Our Vagal Toning Program is designed to support this process by helping the nervous system settle, soften, and feel safe enough to reconnect with emotion again.

✨ Healing begins with safety.

Trauma lives in the nervous system — not just the mind.
When the body has adapted to prolonged stress, symptoms are communication, not failure.

✨ Healing begins with safety.

🤍 Affirmation: “I am allowed to speak my truth. My story matters.”

Society tells survivors to stay silent. But speaking up—whether to a friend, a therapist, or even just yourself—is an act of courage.

Research is on your side! Sometimes, finding the words to describe what happened to us can be too painful and sometimes impossible. Instead of jumping straight into talking and becoming frustrated and disheartened we propose a gentle approach. Start with expressive art, expressive movement, singing, and dancing. These methods can help open us gently to process what has happened.

🌿 Signs you may be carrying unresolved childhood trauma

Overreacting to small things.
Constant worry or sadness.
Feeling “not good enough.”
Emotional highs and lows.
Being suspicious of others.
Harsh self-criticism.

If any of these resonate, please know —
this doesn’t mean you’re broken.

These patterns are often learned survival responses shaped by early experiences, especially when safety, consistency, or emotional attunement were missing. Your nervous system adapted to protect you.

✨ And what was learned for survival can be gently unlearned in healing.

If you’d like to explore this more with compassion (not labels or diagnoses), we’ve created a short, supportive quiz to help you understand how childhood trauma may be showing up in your life today.

Awareness is the first step.
You don’t have to do the rest alone 🤍

How to Address It
✅ Stop "fixing" their mistakes—let them learn.
✅ Hold people accountable for their responsibilities.
✅ Have direct conversations about shared labor.

⚡ Weaponized incompetence isn’t cluelessness—it’s a choice. If someone is capable of learning, they can step up. 💪

Rest isn’t a luxury — it’s a biological necessity.

A way to restore your energy, regulate your nervous system, and gently tend to your wellbeing. 🌿
And yet, rest can feel surprisingly hard to access.

For many, staying busy becomes a form of protection — a way to avoid the discomfort, memories, or emotions that can surface in stillness. When the body has lived through trauma, slowing down can feel unsafe, even threatening.

Trauma-informed yoga offers a different pathway.

Through mindful awareness and gentle, choice-based movement, the practice supports your body in finding safety again — without force, pressure, or overwhelm.
Rather than pushing into stillness, you’re guided to meet it gradually, allowing rest to become something your body can trust.

If you’re feeling depleted, overwhelmed, or overdue for rest, you’re not alone.

✨ Rest is not something you earn — it’s something you deserve.

Polyvagal Theory: Learning the Language of the Body

In today’s fast-paced world, the importance of understanding our body’s signals cannot be overstated. Polyvagal theory, a concept introduced by Dr. Stephen Porges, offers a powerful framework for decoding these signals and cultivating a deeper connection with ourselves and others.

Recognizing the Signals: Just as learning a language begins with identifying words and phrases, understanding polyvagal theory starts with recognizing the signals your body sends. Are you feeling relaxed and open (ventral vagal)? On edge and ready to react (sympathetic)? Or detached and withdrawn (dorsal vagal)? By attuning to these cues, you’re taking the first step in mastering the language of the body.

Building Emotional Vocabulary: In language learning, expanding your vocabulary helps you express yourself more clearly. Similarly, polyvagal theory encourages you to expand your emotional vocabulary. Naming and understanding emotions tied to different states can enhance your ability to communicate and regulate your responses.

Why do so many of us struggle to leave toxic relationships?
Because it’s rarely about logic — it’s about survival.

✨ Familiarity can feel like safety
When chaos, inconsistency, or emotional intensity were present early on, the nervous system can learn to register these patterns as “normal.” Even when a relationship is harmful, it may feel familiar — and familiarity can feel safer than the unknown.

✨ Trauma bonding
Cycles of harm followed by affection or repair create powerful emotional ties. The brain becomes conditioned to crave the relief and closeness that follows conflict, even when the relationship causes ongoing pain.

✨ Low self-worth
Trauma can slowly erode self-esteem, leading to beliefs like “this is all I deserve” or “healthy love isn’t meant for me.”

✨ Fear of abandonment
Leaving may activate deep fears of being alone, rejected, or unsafe — especially for those with early attachment wounds.

✨ Nervous system patterns
The body can become accustomed to stress and intensity. Calm, consistency, or safety may initially feel unfamiliar or uncomfortable.

✨ Freeze or fawn responses
When leaving feels threatening, the nervous system may respond by freezing (staying stuck) or fawning (appeasing to maintain connection), rather than mobilizing toward change.
If this resonates, please know — struggling to leave isn’t a personal failure. It’s often a nervous system doing its best to survive.

Healing begins with safety, compassion, and learning to trust your body again 🤍

Finding what works for you matters. 🌿

Healing isn’t linear — and it isn’t one-size-fits-all.
What helps one nervous system may not feel right for another, and that’s okay.
Some people begin with vagal toning.
Others find safety through movement, sound, or breath.
Some need education, others need embodiment.

There is no “right” way to heal — only the way that meets you where you are.
Our Trauma Therapy Program was created to honour this truth.

It brings together multiple trauma-informed pathways — so you can explore, experiment, and find what genuinely supports your healing.

No forcing.
No fixing.
Just options, choice, and compassion.

The vagus nerve plays a powerful role in how safe, calm, and connected we feel in our bodies — often without us realizing it.

It influences:
🌿 Digestion
🌿 Heart rate
🌿 Breathing
🌿 Stress response
🌿 Reflexes

When stress or trauma has been present for a long time, the nervous system can stay stuck in survival mode. That’s when things like digestive issues, shallow breathing, racing heart, chronic tension, or feeling constantly “on edge” can begin to feel normal.

This isn’t a personal failure — it’s physiology.
The good news?

The vagus nerve is trainable. With gentle, consistent practices, we can support the body’s natural ability to return to regulation, rest, and balance.

✨ To support this, we’re offering 60% off our Vagal Toning Program — a short, daily, trauma-informed practice designed to help you reconnect with safety in your body, at your own pace.

This isn’t about fixing yourself.

It’s about supporting a nervous system that’s been doing its best to protect you.

Listening to the wisdom of your body

So many women are taught to push through discomfort — to stay strong, keep going, and override what their bodies are trying to say.

But healing often begins when we slow down enough to listen.

Tension, fatigue, anxiety, emotional overwhelm, numbness, or feeling “on edge” aren’t personal failures.
They’re often signs that your nervous system has been working hard to protect you.
Womanhood isn’t about enduring more.

It’s about learning to come home to your body with compassion, curiosity, and care.

If you’ve been wondering whether your body might still be holding onto stress or trauma, we’ve created a gentle, somatic-informed quiz to support you.
✨ Take the quiz here:
👉 https://www.rewiretraumatherapy.com/quiz-is-my-body-affected-by-trauma

There are no right or wrong answers — just an invitation to understand yourself more deeply.
Your body has a story. You deserve to hear it. 💛
