#trauma #safety #safe
We can only access trauma when we feel safe.
The best thing you can do to help someone recover from #trauma is increase their sense of safety, support & grounded connection.
This goes for you too. If you carry trauma, you need to feel safe first...only then can you do the work.
@d599f84e Corollary: if someone you know suddenly goes off the rails at a time when things have never seemed more stable and safe for them, they may be experiencing surfacing trauma and may benefit from a good therapist if not already meeting one.
