"To effectively care for ourselves and others, it can be helpful to name the injuries, and the impacts they have."
It felt like a betrayal.

Dick Cheney’s passing prompts us to ask not just what he did, but why and, more importantly, how we break the cycles he perpetuated that have turned trauma into more trauma.

Grateful the connection between trauma & democracy is getting more airtime. This is the missing link. I’ll be on @NPR’s 1A talking w/ host @JWhitePubRadio & guests @MillerIdriss & @vermontgmg 10 am EST hour on @wamu885. H/t Sr Managing Producer @Maya_Garg

In the U.S, people are asking how to stop cycles of violence, a question that applies to Israel’s genocide of Palestinians. This is intergenerational trauma that needs specific healing interventions sown into policy and practice on an individual, communal and systemic level.

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

Israel continues demolishing buildings across Gaza, as more than 6,000 Palestinians in the besieged enclave reportedly became homeless on Saturday due to intense and relentless Israeli bombardment.

Looking forward to being on @KQEDForum on San Francisco's @NPR station today, talking about cognitive dissonance and the discomfort of going about our daily lives during such dark times.

Tune in at 10 am PT / 1 pm EST.

Same applies to New Zealand shooting, an event not related to politics

[Kate Woodsome @kwoodsome]

Unexpectedly seeing the footage of #CharlieKirk's shooting can be dysregulating. Take care to avoid it or to ground. Notice your stress state. Inhale & exhale for twice as long to slow heart rate. Look around room & notice what's in it. You are here, now. https://t.co/KA6zNSEHRW

During Saturday’s mass civic engagement — No Kings protests and the military parade — I urge one thing: that people practice trauma-informed care with themselves and each other.
