Did You Know?

Did you know the effects of a traumatic experience can still haunt you thirty, forty, even fifty years after the event occurred? While the experience may have passed long ago it may feel as though it happened just yesterday and still carries the same emotional power and physical reaction.

Did you know our brain relies on past experiences to make executive decisions in your current life? Traumatic experiences may, unknowingly, be guiding the decisions you make every day.

Did you know our brain uses information connected to traumatic experience differently from information learned in any other situation? In new or uncertain situations, the information learned when a trauma occurred is often the filter through which new experiences are defined. A trauma filter.

Did you know just as physical wounds heal, so too does our brain? With proper treatment and support your brain, your mind, your life—you—will recover from the traumatic experiences and be empowered to Live Your Excellence.

How Does Anxiety Impact our Thoughts, Feelings and Sense of Safety?

Anxiety is a normal reaction to stressful situations. It is what keeps us safe, quickly informing us to run when we see a fire, freeze when we see a bear, or even fight if it is the only way to protect ourselves. Healthy anxiety—that is, anxiety at the right levels—contributes to our vitality and motivation for optimal performance. However, sometimes this fear can become so intense that it feels debilitating and blocks us from doing what matters. We never regain the equilibrium we are supposed to return to after the danger is gone, preventing us from moving forward with our life feeling calm and confident.
