Dear scribblers + speakers,
June is PTSD Awareness Month. Trauma is not the event, it's the aftershocks of the event. Overthinking + overcontrolling could be post-traumatic responses/strategies that have been part of your survival.
The embodied question is: As you work-play through the narrative of your trauma (and its legacy), what rituals will have helped you seek transformative intervention? (don't overthink this, we all have rituals—we simply don't name them as such.)
Embodiment CTA (Call to Abide): Take the Rest Assessment - Go from routine to ritual as you Notice + Nurture + Embody your cyclical rhythms. You'll receive your ritual-specific, personalized recommendation, which will help you tune into your body's wisdom to optimize tending to your rhythmic soul care.
Therapy: Therapy for Black Girls
Explore Trauma Therapy: Consider EDMR, CBT, and somatic approaches as you assimilate the broken-up bits of sensory memories.
Ase' + Amen
