😫 Is it sensory or behavior? 😤

Not all big reactions are the same.

Sometimes a child is experiencing a sensory meltdown ➡️ their nervous system is overloaded or overstimulated (too loud, too bright, too much).

Other times it’s a behavioral response ➡️ their way of communicating a need or want, avoiding a less preferred task, or testing limits.

💡💙 Knowing the difference helps us respond with the right support — whether that’s calming their sensory system or setting consistent boundaries.

The difference between a Fixed Mindset and a Growth Mindset can shape your entire path.

🧠 Fixed Mindset: “I’ll never be good at this” “I’ll never feel better” “I’m broken”

🌱 Growth Mindset: “I’m not there yet, but I’m learning” “I’m healing a little bit every day” “I can learn from this”

Every challenge is an opportunity to learn and grow. Your mindset and the way you talk to yourself matters. Shift your mindset, change your outcomes.

Choose growth. Choose progress. Choose belief in your potential and that change is possible.

You finally have a moment to rest—but your body won’t take the hint.

Your mind races. Your jaw tenses. Maybe your heart pounds, or you suddenly feel the urge to scroll, clean, snack, or do anything but be still.

If you’ve ever felt uncomfortable with rest—or even afraid of it—you’re not alone. Especially if you’ve learned to associate that being productive = being safe, or that rest = being lazy or vulnerable.

This isn’t laziness or resistance. It’s a nervous system trying to protect you—even when the danger has passed. Your nervous system needs new signals of safety.

Here are five trauma-informed, therapist-approved strategies to help your body begin to trust stillness again—gently, at your own pace.
