Because of past traumas and soul injuries, humans become guarded...

To cultivate healthy relationships, we must do all we can to make others feel safe around us.

It is important to make others feel seen and appreciated.

We must try to make them feel safe enough to let their guard down and be able to walk with ease and peace in their heart...

Walking the earth guarded impedes LOVE from coming in or going out into the world.

We have the ability to make each other feel safe and loved. Not an easy task always because so many of us grew up with abuse and adversity that conditioned us to build walls around our hearts.

As more of us awaken and do our inner healing work, our energy has a positive impact all around us.

Let us heal our own hearts and make others feel safe in our presence.

Now, please know that I fully understand that no matter what we do, some will stay guarded and never feel safe. In those situations, please do not blame yourself. It is their choice.

Since we all connect with each other through waves of energy, if the alignment is off, the relationship will never grow. There is a time when we let the pieces fall where they may, create boundaries and stay away from those that could cause us pain and misery.

It's ok to let go. It's ok. Sometimes you must out of self-love and self-preservation.

And again, how can we enjoy the beauty of life if we walk around guarded?

To feel safe in a world where we can experience soul injury is a personal journey we all must learn somehow.

So, dear sisters... Find a tribe, a community where you feel safe. Open your heart and see who walks in it with love and reverence.

With all my love for you, sisters. May the walls you built come down.

May you find a place within and without where you feel safe and loved. And so it is!!!.............................................

A landmark review finds no scientific evidence that depression is caused by a chemical imbalance.

A major umbrella review led by researchers at University College London has found no convincing evidence that depression is caused by low serotonin levels or reduced serotonin activity. Published in Molecular Psychiatry, the study analyzed decades of research across several major fields and concluded that the long-standing “chemical imbalance” theory lacks scientific support. This challenges the core rationale behind the widespread use of antidepressants like SSRIs, which are believed to work by correcting low serotonin. The review suggests that the popularity of this theory may have contributed to the massive increase in antidepressant prescriptions despite the absence of biological proof.

The findings also raise concerns about how this serotonin theory may shape public perception and treatment decisions.

With up to 90% of people believing depression stems from a chemical imbalance, researchers warn that this misconception can discourage recovery optimism and reliance on non-drug treatments.

Moreover, some evidence points to antidepressants possibly lowering serotonin levels over time, highlighting a need for transparency and new approaches to mental health care.

The authors advocate for a shift in focus toward addressing life stressors, trauma, and social factors through therapy and lifestyle interventions rather than pharmacological solutions alone.

"In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love.
In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile.
In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm.
I realized, through it all, that…
In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.
And that makes me happy.
For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back."

( ✍️ Albert Camus )
