We have a lot of messages in our heads that play like an old cassette tape. Some invisible neuron in our brains push the play button without us even knowing. These engrained messages can be helpful ones we have received over the years, or they can be the exact opposite. Like old ruts in our yards, they don’t serve us but we like water drift towards the warn down path.
Finding those old ruts, the songs on our cassette that we don’t like or want anymore, need to be replaced. We start by cutting out the messages that no longer serve a purpose or fit the person we are today.
It’s a microstep by small step process, the easy button does not exist. But with effort and awareness you can have a cassette of musical messages that help fill the old useless ruts.

We have been saying this for years. Here’s the science 💜

Epigenetics researchers at the Institut Pasteur in Paris and INSERM have completed the most definitive human study of transgenerational epigenetic inheritance ever conducted — following three generations of Holocaust survivor families, Cambodian genocide survivor families, and control populations across 25 years — finding specific, reproducible methylation changes in stress-response genes (particularly the FKBP5 and NR3C1 glucocorticoid receptor genes) that are present in trauma survivors, transmitted to their biological children, and detectable in grandchildren who never experienced trauma themselves. Emotional pain leaves molecular scars. Those scars are heritable. 🧬
The mechanism — once considered impossible in mammals because the genetic dogma held that acquired characteristics cannot be inherited — operates through the germline epigenome. During the formation of s***m and eggs, the genome undergoes near-complete epigenetic reprogramming to remove parental marks. "Near-complete" is the operative word. Certain loci, including stress-response gene promoters, resist this reprogramming when the parent's stress exposure has been sufficiently severe and prolonged, maintaining their trauma-induced methylation patterns through the reprogramming process and passing them to the offspring's genome. The trauma experience writes itself into the reproductive cells.
The clinical implications are profound and already actionable. Children and grandchildren of trauma survivors show elevated baseline cortisol levels, altered HPA axis responsiveness, and increased risk of PTSD, anxiety, and depression — not because of how they were raised, but because of how their grandparents suffered. Understanding this mechanism means targeted epigenetic therapies could potentially reverse inherited stress marks, liberating future generations from trauma they never personally experienced.
The Pasteur team is now working with EMDR and methylation-targeting drug combinations. This is no longer metaphor — the inheritance of trauma is molecular, measurable, and potentially reversible.

Depression can be a crippling pain that seizes your brain and body with a vice force. Your brain can be convinced of truth in the innumerable lies it tells you.
“I am all alone”
“Nobody likes me”
“I can’t do this”

Despair and the creeping in of negative self talk can further pull you down until it becomes so encompassing that nothing seems possible.

Fighting depression is hard. Feeling despair is hard.
Asking for help can be even harder.

But we are here. We are willing to walk with you or sit with you in your space. You are never as alone as you feel. Pinkie promise.
