Relational Trauma: Mental Health Awareness Week 4 - Repost from May 28 2021

Send us Fan MailRelationships are not without drama - but when the drama in the present is actually triggering things from the past…we might be in danger of losing that relationship.  Learn about our very human responses to survive & how they sometimes happen so often, they become habit. Whether it's your relational trauma or the trauma of someone you know and love - we can all use tools to recognize trauma responses in relationships (and hopefully support a more intentional shift). And if you can't play with this today? That's okay too. Stay curious. We'll see you later, or in the next episode friend.  🌿Listen in to:💌 Explore different trauma responses;💌 Play with the idea of identifying your triggers;💌 Empower yourself to HEAL so you can remain present & responsive in your relationships.What you'll get:0:00 Empowered Human Throwback Intro4:10 Beginning of the Original Episode4:51 What is a Perceived Threat and Trauma Response?6:08 What is a Trigger?6:22 What is Relational Trauma?14:13 Response: Fight, Flight, Freeze, Appease (Submit and Attach)🎁Get Empowered Now with Nina's Offerings  *** Reminder: we are in a throwback episode phase while Nina writes the book: she’ll be listening in with you to see how things have transformed over the years! ***Empowered Human with Nina Garcia is an episodic journey for self justice, personal freedom, and lifelong liberation.
