If you are angry all the time, stop suppressing it.
Suppressed rage doesn't disappear. It becomes depression, anxiety, and chronic illness.
Rage is trapped energy that needs to MOVE.
Here's how to release it safely: 🧵
I've worked with hundreds of clients who were told their anger was "toxic."
Meanwhile, they developed fibromyalgia, autoimmune conditions, and chronic fatigue.
Their bodies were literally attacking themselves because their rage had nowhere to go.

Most people think sexual energy is just about sex.
Ancient traditions knew it as "kundalini", a life force that can literally rewire your brain and nervous system.
Modern somatic therapy proves they were right.
Here's how to harness this primal energy: 🧵
Kundalini literally means "coiled serpent" in Sanskrit.
It's dormant life-force energy sitting at the base of your spine.
The same energy behind sexual arousal is identical to what we call spiritual awakening.
We've just been taught to waste it through porn and sex.

If your nervous system has been stuck in survival mode, you need a reset.
After years of stress, trauma, and modern life, it's forgotten how to truly relax.
Here are 16 specific techniques to reset it completely: 🧵

Animals shake after escaping predators to discharge trauma.
Humans suppress this reflex and that's why we stay stuck.

77% of suicides are men.
It’s Men’s Mental Health Month—yet therapy still isn’t built for us.
Here are 11 reasons modern therapy is failing men:
1) Men talk through problems shoulder-to-shoulder, not face-to-face.
Isolated "talking" contradicts how men naturally process.
Put a man in motion or give him something to build, and he'll open up naturally.

I'm 33.
I've spent a decade obsessed with one question: What invisible forces control human behavior?
Here's what I found about consciousness, trauma, and the toxic shame that's programming your life:
In the womb, we experience complete Oneness—no separation, no boundaries.
Birth creates a split and the Oneness becomes dual:
1) my "Self" 2) the Other
The Other is first experienced through our Mother.

What do panic attacks, chronic fatigue, and digestive issues have in common?
They're all symptoms of the "fight-or-flight" response.
Once you understand it, you can't unsee it.
Here's what it means and 4 ways to reclaim your mind (according to science): 🧵
In 1903, Walter Bradford Cannon, a student at Harvard Medical School, observed something remarkable while studying digestion.
When cats experienced stress or fear, their digestive processes completely stopped.
He used X-rays to observe this happening in real time.

Your hips are more than anatomy.
They anchor your nervous system's fear response, serving as your foundation for safety.

Somatic Therapy is a revolutionary new method to reverse depression, anxiety and fatigue.
It combines neuroscience, psychology and biology to rewire the brain.
Here's what it is and how to do it: 🧵
Somatic Therapy was developed by Dr. Peter Levine after observing wild animals in nature.
He noticed that despite facing life-threatening events regularly, animals don’t develop long-term trauma symptoms like depression.
On the other hand, humans and zoo animals are the only mammals that develop psychological problems after intense emotional stress.
Let’s explore why ↓

Why do humans get stuck in Trauma while wild animals recover naturally?
In the 1970s, Dr. Peter Levine noticed something remarkable:
Wild animals face death daily yet don’t develop PTSD, Depression, or Anxiety.
His discovery revolutionized how we understand trauma forever:🧵
Dr. Peter Levine discovered Somatic Therapy after watching wild animals in nature.
He found that even though these animals often face dangerous situations, they don't suffer from long-term trauma.
On the other hand, humans and zoo animals are the only mammals that develop psychological problems after intense emotional events...

Why Do Zebras Stay Calm Under Attack—But You’re Stressed in a Coffee Shop?
Zebras face lions, starvation, and drought. Yet, they don’t get ulcers, cancer or chronic disease.
Humans? We sit at desks and worry ourselves sick.
Here’s why stress is wrecking your body—and how to stop it:🧵
What Is Stress?
Stress itself is not the problem.
It’s a survival mechanism—a full-body response designed to save your life.
• Your heart races
• Your muscles tighten
• Your body releases adrenaline & cortisol
In the wild, this helped us escape danger.
But in modern life? It’s slowly killing us.
Let's see how:

I'm a therapist who specializes in men's mental health.
Here are 11 reasons why modern therapy is failing men - and what needs to change:
1) Men are told to express emotions, but punished when they do
Therapy encourages men to 'open up' but ignores what happens when they actually do.
The same vulnerability praised in therapy gets men rejected, disrespected, and overlooked in the real world.

Trauma isn't what happens to you. It's what happens INSIDE you when you lack the resources to cope.
Conventional wisdom about trauma is dangerously incomplete.
Here’s what no one tells you about trauma—and how to heal from it: 🧵
What is Trauma?
Trauma isn’t just about war, abuse, or car accidents.
It’s any experience that overwhelms your nervous system and leaves a lasting imprint.
It changes how you think, feel, and respond to the world—even years later.
And the worst part? Most people don’t even realize they have it.

You’ve been lied to:
ADHD is not a disorder.
It’s your brain’s way of escaping unbearable emotions.
Here’s the hidden root cause of ADHD (and how to reverse it naturally): 🧵
For decades, we’ve been told that ADHD is a genetic disorder—a chemical imbalance in the brain.
Doctors prescribe stimulants to “correct” it.
But what if ADHD isn’t a disease at all?
What if it’s actually a coping mechanism for childhood pain?

The steps must be done in this order to create a sustainable solution:
If you think you have Trauma, science says it didn't start with you.
Unhealed trauma doesn't just disappear—it gets passed down through DNA as self-sabotage, cycles of failure, and toxic patterns.
Here's what science says about inherited family trauma (and how to heal):🧵
First off, what is inherited trauma?
It’s the emotional, psychological, and biological imprint of your family’s unresolved trauma—passed down through generations.

- Fears you can’t explain
- Unexplained health issues
- Obsessive thoughts and habits

When doctors say depression is from a chemical imbalance, it's code for ‘we don't know.'
After 2000+ hours of clinical training, I’ve learned depression is more complex—and more treatable—than many realize.
The new science of healing depression they don’t teach in school:🧵
In America, approximately 18% of adults experience depression.
Research shows it can lead to serious health conditions that are harder to treat. The sooner you treat depression the faster you can stop it.
