How Trauma Changes the Nervous System 💔

@fitomizefitness

Did you know that trauma can reshape the way our nervous system processes the world around us? It’s like rewiring our brain’s response to sensory input, influencing everything from how we perceive a touch to our reaction to sounds. 🧠

🔍 When trauma enters our lives, it doesn’t just affect our thoughts and emotions. It also impacts our physical body, particularly our nervous system. A traumatized nervous system might amplify sensory data, making everyday sounds or light feel overwhelmingly intense. Alternatively, it can dull our sensory processing, creating a sense of numbness or disconnection from our surroundings.

Why does this happen? It’s the brain’s survival mechanism kicking in, trying to protect us from threats by either heightening our alertness or numbing us to potential pain. Yet, in the long run, this state of constant alert or numbness can become our new “normal,” making daily life seem like a series of challenges.

🌱 Healing Tip: Bringing awareness to this altered state is the beginning of healing. Techniques like mindfulness, grounding exercises, and trauma-informed therapy can help recalibrate our nervous system, slowly guiding it back to a state of balance.

🤝 If you’re on this journey, remember you’re not walking it alone. Connecting with others, sharing experiences, and seeking support can illuminate the path to recovery.

Let’s normalize these discussions. By understanding the profound impact of trauma, we can foster patience and compassion for ourselves and others. 🕊️💖
