Trauma wires the brain for survival. It strengthens fear-based pathways because repetition teaches the brain what to prioritize, but neuroplasticity reminds us of something powerful: ✨ The brain can relearn safety. Through: ✔️ Therapy ✔️ Coping skills ✔️ Support ✔️ Repeated practice The

I recently picked up this book to begin working on my self-therapy + grief journey. As the daughter of an immigrant, I’ve definitely inherited some form of generational trauma. Without diving into too many details, I want to be able to grow in other areas of my life. During most of my life, I’ve ha

Trauma isn’t measured by how “bad” it looks on the outside. It’s measured by how your nervous system experienced it. ✨ Your trauma is still valid even if: • You never told anyone • You’re feeling better now • Your life wasn’t threatened • People didn’t be

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2022. It was a shock and took a lot of things from me. How I got it: I was in a wreak that totaled my car and bruised me up badly. A few weeks after the wreak I went back to the hospital because I was in so much pain in my back and joints and I didn’t know

Some of you don’t need more advice. You need to stop revisiting people who only knew how to love you halfway.You keep trying to rewrite a story that already showed you its ending. Closure isn’t always a conversation. Sometimes it’s a decision.Stay long enough in the wrong place and you’ll for

It made me question why my parents didn’t care more. The daughter in me forgives my parents mistakes. The MOM in me will never understand. Sexual abuse, verbal abuse, physical abuse was-(well…IS?) part of my story. I grew up a sexual abuse victim. When I was 5, one of my dad’s friends.
