May those using the word #woke for fear mongering and dismissal of truth confront their reasons for doing so.

At its inception, “woke” was used to describe people who were conscious of overt and systemic racism and other injustice.

Who has reason to fear the word or the truth?

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

90% of our brain is shaped by age 5. Childhood trauma disrupts the development of the limbic system. Childhood emotional, physical, or sexual abuse increases the amygdala volume, making it hyperactive.

A hyperactive amygdala perceives more stress in the environment, and feels less at ease in social interactions.

One study showed people with an over active amygdala interpreted neutral facial expressions as hostile.

It can also show up as: 'social anxiety,' hypervigilance, startling easily, noticing every change in mood and voice, moodiness/irritability/being on edge.

Having no memories of childhood, a harsh inner critic, and issues trusting people in relationships can be symptoms of C-PTSD.

Understanding C-PTSD:

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Unlike PTSD that is typically caused by singular traumatic events, C-PTSD (complex post traumatic stress) is caused by a repeated events that happen for months or years including:
- childhood emotional neglect
- financial insecurity
- emotionally unstable parent figures
- emotional abuse
C-PTSD creates: low self worth, hypervigilance relationship issues, depression, anxiety, and a fierce inner critic.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @StephenCurry30 🎉

Today, I’m remembering the life of #BreonnaTaylor. I’m praying for her family, who has been without her for 3 years. The aftermath of unjust policing leaves us with days like today, where we have to reckon with unimaginable loss.

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

Three years ago today, Breonna Taylor was murdered.

Say her name. Keep saying her name.

Justice is building a world where Breonna Taylor would still be alive today.

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Not everyone has the skills needed to create healthy, long-term, committed relationships. Partners who are emotionally immature and/or insecure will look outside of the relationship for validation and escape. This usually isn't because they don't love their partners, it's because they don't know how to actually be an adult in love. They don't know how to cope with a steady love that feels secure. Instead, they want a person to be their validation machine.

A 3-year-old girl shot and killed her 4-year-old sister with a gun that was left unsecured in a Texas home on Sunday, but you might not have heard about it because it’s the sort of thing that happens every single day in America. It’s long past time we did something about that.

Morning Prayer: Loving God, may our hearts be open to the encouragement of Your Spirit so that we might be strengthened from within. May our lives be conduits of Your encouragement so that we might lift others up and bring strength to their soul. Help us to bless others. Amen.

If you feel like you've been through childhood trauma and have a lot of confusing emotions but you don't remember traumatic events...

This might be why:

[Scott Wagoner @scottwagoner62]

“May I have the courage today
To live the life that I would love,
To postpone my dream no longer
But do at last what I came here for
And waste my heart on fear no more.”
