you have to be very careful with people who've lost their parents, siblings or children.
let me explain clearly why:
when someone goes through that level of pain, they start seeing life completely differently from how they once did. they don't tolerate fake energy anymore and they don't play about their peace because they've already buried pieces of themselves.
losing someone that close shifts something deep inside and the person they used to be doesn't really exist anymore.
they move differently, love differently and even the way they smile carries a weight most people won't understand. they value real connections more because they understand how quickly everything can be taken away.
time passes but that kind of loss never fully leaves.
it becomes something they silently carry every day. that's why they protect their energy more fiercely cos they know what it feels like to lose pieces of themselves. if you truly understand this, share it with someone else. buena suerte 👍
Some patterns I noticed after looking through a ton of patient files the last week — Every sick male patient I’ve worked with in the last year has one or all of the following same beliefs / personality traits and body states - (I tend to do a core beliefs / habits / personality intake before I look at any labs or physical aspects of an illness) :
1) That they are “behind” in something : they aren’t where they should be / or that they missed the boat that others seemingly caught (that time has a finish line and they are running out of time to prove they are good enough)
2) Tendencies to people please, usually stemming from performing/performative behaviors around a mother or father as a means to stay safe or accepted via keeping the peace/not making waves - now a coping strategy into adulthood that is no longer working (if I can be useful I won’t be lost/left behind/abandoned)
3) Too hard on self (internalized criticism, usually stemming from another person and that persons voice becomes their own inner voice)
4) Strong shame or guilt aspects including inner dialogues that are judgmental of themself
5) Living in a functional freeze state (most common I see, when fight or flight fail /weren’t possible in youth)
6) They are living in long term touch & connection deficits
There are many others but these show up so often for me that I thought I’d share.
The labs I might want them to run tell me what in the body broke as a means to get their attention because it was affected by a pattern, but this pattern and belief intake is the why it broke and should be addressed.
Here are what these 6 most common I see in general teach us / could do to us :
Behind: Core belief: “I do not have inherent worth. My value depends on what I produce or achieve.”
Nervous system: Chronic HPA axis activation. The body lives in a low grade threat, constantly assessing whether it has done enough to justify its existence.
Somatic consequences here: Chronic fatigue, immune suppression, metabolic dysregulation, hormonal depletion, accelerated aging. Literature says here: High competence dependent self esteem correlates specifically with cardiac and exhaustive disease patterns including burnout states. Low self esteem predicts physiological dysregulation under stress and suppressed immune markers.
People pleasing: Core belief: “My existence is a burden. I am only safe when I am useful to others.”
Nervous system: Sustained sympathetic hypervigilance wrapped up in a parasympathetic state. The body monitors others emotional states constantly while suppressing its own emotional state. This is the fawn response, a trauma adaptation that keeps the nervous system perpetually on alert even while appearing calm.
Somatic consequences here: Chronic muscle tension particularly in the jaw and shoulders, digestive dysregulation, disrupted gut microbiome, sleep disruption, a vigilance that does not switch off at the end of the day.
Literature says about this state: Chronic people pleasing keeps the nervous system in sustained hypervigilance. Suppressed anger and chronic stress states and absolutely *destroy* the gut microbiome and reduce serotonin production, which means the nervous system loses the biochemistry needed to set a boundary. (much goes down in a body that didn’t express itself.)
@Maryian96 Before even getting married to someone leave alone kumshikia/kumpa mimba at least try and find out if kuna family history ya mental condition kwa lineage yake,some are domant and huwa alleviated na stress and substance abuse pia learn to talk issues out if kuna differences
When you watch this video, you'll understand why every male child need a father figure in their lives.
The male child needs that masculine push to activate his masculine energy and problem-solving abilities.
The feminine energy can't give that 🤝

🚨‼️Solomon didn’t write Ecclesiastes to help you “find yourself.” He wrote it to show you what you are when you’re left to yourself: a creature trapped in time, watching the clock chew up everything you love. “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven” (Ecclesiastes 3:1). That verse is not a Hallmark card. It is a spiritual sledgehammer.
The world reads those “time” statements and thinks it found peace. What it really found is a cage with nicer wallpaper. Solomon lists birth and death, planting and uprooting, weeping and laughing, war and peace, and then asks the question nobody wants asked: “What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?” (Ecclesiastes 3:9). If all you have is time, then all you have is loss, because time takes back everything it loaned you.
Then Solomon drops the line that ruins every human control fantasy: “He hath made every thing beautiful in his time… so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end” (Ecclesiastes 3:11). That means your little charts, your planners, your “manifesting,” your therapy vocabulary, your astrology, your frequency talk, your five-year goals, your “I’m in my season” slogans, none of it can interpret providence. You can watch the gears turn, but you cannot see the whole machine.
That’s why Ecclesiastes leaves you restless until you meet the New Testament answer: God does have a plan, and He does act on time, “But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son” (Galatians 4:4). Solomon shows you the tyranny of time under the sun. Paul shows you how time gets redeemed in Jesus Christ, “Redeeming the time, because the days are evil” (Ephesians 5:16). If you want meaning, you don’t need a better schedule. You need a Saviour who owns the calendar.
When a man dies,
his wife often lives longer.
When a woman dies,
her husband often doesn’t.
And it’s according to data.
Not because men care less.
But because women quietly keep life running.
She remembers the medicines.
She plans the meals.
She schedules the doctor visits.
She notices the tiredness, the silence, the small changes others miss.
She reminds. She insists. She worries. She stays.
A wife is not just a partner.
She becomes the routine.
The care.
The structure that holds everything in place.
For many men, she is the reason bad habits don’t win
and weak years don’t take over.
When she is gone,
the house is still there,
but the rhythm is lost.
Meals get skipped.
Appointments are forgotten.
Loneliness grows louder than hunger.
Purpose starts to fade.
And life slowly loses its balance.
When a husband dies,
a woman breaks too.
But she knows how to survive.
She has been carrying others for years.
This is not about who is better.
It is about invisible roles
played quietly, every day,
without recognition.
Love is not always grand or poetic.
Sometimes it is a simple reminder
to eat,
to rest,
to see a doctor,
to keep going.
And when that kind of love is gone,
the body feels the loss
long before the heart can find words.
