Experiencing anxiety, fear, profound sadness, and even nightmares after a traumatic event is completely normal. However, if these symptoms persist without improvement for several weeks, it may be time to consider reaching out for professional assistance.

Mindfulness has been defined by Jon Kabat-Zinn as “paying attention in a particular way, on purpose, in the present moment and nonjudgmentally.” It involves being aware of your senses and emotions in the moment, without any interpretation or judgment. You are anchored in the present, fully immersed in whatever task you are undertaking. By taking a moment to observe your mind, you can avoid getting caught in a cycle of negative thoughts and become less reactive. https://www.centerforhealingtx.org/2024/10/24/trauma-informed-mindfulness-and-meditation/

Keep in mind that there isn’t a single “correct way” to handle all your emotions. The key is to discover what works best for you and to practice patience with yourself.
Lean on a social support network. Reach out to close family and friends, or connect with others who may have experienced the same stressful event or have similar stories to share.

Our hearts are heavy as we grieve alongside the community of Minneapolis in the wake of this week's tragic mass shooting. We hold the victims, their families, and everyone impacted in our thoughts and we recognize the deep pain and fear that such violence brings.
If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or generally not okay this week, please know that you’re not alone. These feelings can be compounded by previous acts of violence like the one our community faced in 2023.
We encourage anyone in need of help to reach out for support and to take care of themselves during this difficult time. For information and resources to cope with trauma and violence, please visit the Mass Violence Victimization Resource Center's resource guide here:https://nmvvrc.org/media/do1f5pki/nmvc-resource-guide-annunciation-catholic-school.pdf
The Center for Healing is still here for those in need of support and can be reached at 469-963-3561
Take care of yourself. We’re here for you.
