Trusting ourselves enhances our ability to regulate after dysregulation, reduces anxiety, and enables us to know we are capable in the face of uncertainty.
Consciously noticing, acknowledging, and returning to the body gets us there.

For many trauma survivors the need for control comes from a place to feel safe. That’s why understanding #nervoussystem #regulation & expanding the #windowoftolerance is so important.
Practices like mindfulness meditation, deep breathing, & grounding can help.

#Greenflags are important not only because they are positive aspects of a connection, but they also help a #traumasurvivor recognise healthy behaviour within a relationship
This needs to be consistently maintained in order for a survivor to increase their #windowoftolerance.

A good awareness booster is to ask ourselves - 'What are my cues of safety?'
They could be relaxed muscles, diaphragmatic breathing, a lack of tension in the face, a clear voice, an openness to ideas, and a drive toward connection.

🤜MMHM🤛 - Men's Mental Health Mondays!
One of the first things my therapist taught me was the Window of Tolerance.
It became so clear to me that I lived in HypoArousal (Parasympathetic) state.
