Navigating the Unseen Battles:
​
For years, I wrestled with the invisible weight of my past, grappling with the physical and emotional toll of experiences that seemed to have a relentless grip on my well-being. In the solitude of that struggle, I wished for someone who could truly understand the chaos within my brain and the turmoil coursing through my body.
The common refrain of "just get over it" or "move on" felt like an unattainable directive, that drove me to work harder to the point of exhaustion while searching to simply be good enough. I intimately comprehend the persistent nature of trauma, the unyielding grip it has on our minds, and the echoes it leaves in the body.
Living in a Dysregulated State:
I know what it feels like to navigate life in a perpetual state of dysregulation, swinging between the clenched fists of fight, the racing heartbeat (anxiety, poor decision making, inner aggression) and the desperate plea of fawn (co-dependency, people-pleasing, repressed anger, poor boundaries). It was a daily battle, against the external circumstances, but against the relentless echoes of the past etched into the very fabric of my being.
​
The Mind-Body Struggle:
Understanding the intricacies of the mind-body connection became paramount on my journey. The battle of the mind, with its ceaseless loop of memories and emotions, entwined with the echoes that reverberate through the body, demanded recognition and understanding.
​
Knowledge as Empowerment:
As I delved into the complexities of my journey, a wealth of knowledge emerged. It wasn't just about acknowledging what had happened all those years ago. Still, it was about how my brain and body processed what happened, how I perceive things in this present moment, and finding the tools to navigate and transcend the negative energy stored in the body. The insights gained during my search became a guiding light, pulling me from the shadows and advancing my understanding that healing is not only possible; it is a profound and transformative birthright.
