Trauma did NOT make you stronger.
It made you hyper-vigilant and scared of even calm and joyful experiences.
YOU make yourself stronger through the work of discerning between real and perceived threat.

Neuroception refers to our ability to distinguish whether situations or people are safe or dangerous.
When we’ve experienced trauma, our amygdala grows, and our ability to discern is lost.
As we heal our trauma we Rewire Our Brains and Recalibrate our Neuroception!

When we lose our ability to discern between danger and safety,
EVEN JOYFUL and CALM people, places, and experiences are threatening.
When we ReWire Our Brain during trauma-healing work, we can tell the BUTTERFLY’S BALM versus the SCORPION’S STING.

Relationally, if we are still stuck in our trauma response,
we can initially perceive a calm relationship as threatening.
When we are used to chaos, the calm of a healthy relationship can even be perceived as boring!
Trauma-informed work helps us slowly + steadily discern!
