Regulation is not about feeling good all the time. It’s about getting better at feeling.

The capacity to hold complex feelings is a skill learned through experience and repetition. Mindfulness helps us notice our emotions without judgement or getting overwhelmed by them.

We can’t erase the past. In fact, that was never the goal.
We can work to integrate our experiences into our overall identity rather than let it rule our lives.

Trauma is an undeniable part of your canvas, but there is so much capacity in the next brushstroke choose you to take.

More often than not, what we crave the most as adults are the things we needed as children, but didn’t receive.

Children need to feel seen. They rely on attentiveness, consideration, and coregulation from their caregivers in order to develop a sense of trust and worthiness.

Healthy attachment needs more than just physical reinforcement. Food, clothes, and shelter alone do not provide the attention, support, and validation that’s needed for a child to grow up with a sense of inner self and security. Emotional needs are just as important.

You might have grown up in neglectful environments - physically, emotionally, or both.
However, there is hope.

A person can find and create secure attachment even if it was not modeled in childhood. The capacity for safety and connection can be built over time.

People who have gone through trauma may experience burnout faster than others.

Trauma predisposes the nervous system to being in an activated state, and because of this, it may take less to push a person over the edge in work, caregiving, and keeping up with life’s demands.

Could you be inching towards burnout? Burnout itself can exacerbate symptoms associated with trauma too. It’s important to check in with yourself.

As unexpressed feelings build up, a greater degree of muscular tension is necessary to keep them under wraps.

Someone who is repeatedly punished for emoting learns to be afraid of their inner emotional experience and tightens (armors) the musculature of their body in an effort to hold feelings in and to banish them from awareness.

Holding your breath is a an example of this.
It is a common way we keep feelings at bay, as breathing naturally brings your awareness down to the level of feeling.

Self-kindness is treating yourself like a warm, understanding ally rather than a harsh critic. Imperfection is part of the human experience. Mistakes happen, but that doesn’t mean you’re a mistake yourself.

The three stages of trauma recovery according to trauma psychiatrist and researcher Judith Herman M.D.

It’s important to remember that this is not a simple, linear process. Survivors may move between these stages multiple times as it can be complex and emotionally difficult.

Survivors sometimes dismiss the pain they continue to feel long after the trauma has passed.

“It’s all in my head, why can’t I just get over it? It really isn’t that big of a deal!”

“Perceived” pain is still just that — Pain.
Even if a specific source of pain is easy for others to deal with, it might not be for you. The subjectivity of it doesn’t dismiss its effect on you.

Any pain you feel can be given grace and healing no matter the source.

Remember also, that the things we experience in our lives have a full-body effect. Healing is not as simple as a mindset shift. We can help guide the way.

3 things to think about this May 🌷
1. The strongest people you know might still cry in the shower.
2. High-functioning doesn’t mean not struggling.
3. A smile can hide what hurts.

Check in with yourself. And don’t forget to reach out to others too! Healing isn’t done alone, and while it may not be pretty, it’s always worth it.

Ambiguous loss is the emotional pain and grief experienced when a person experiences a significant loss without the opportunity for closure.

Sometimes, ambiguous loss can also happen because of other situations not related to a relationship change.

An unexpected change in future plans, natural disasters, political unrest or a loss of financial or personal security can bring up feelings of ambiguous loss as well.
