Five Ways to Foster Post-Traumatic Growth

[@B3l0v3d05]

1. Awareness/ education 2. Emotional regulation. Knowing we can change our physiological state. 3. Disclosure. Acknowledge what has happened/ is happening and it is what it is. 4. Acceptance. Break neurophysiological loops 5. Narrative development. Insert new story. Condition new response. 6. Service. Community and pay it forward

I had post traumatic growth after my husband died suddenly and I was left to raise two children alone. I had some superpower energy that caused me to somehow grow stronger. Lasted for 3 years. I was using my grief and the adrenaline I believe caused me to feel excess energy that I channeled into health and began an obsession for health, diet working out. I felt great physically, put autoimmune diseases into remission. But emotionally I was confused and running from my grief and trauma of losing my partner of 23 years. Covid put a break on my progress and the isolation and stress caused me to begin a downward spiral and reverted back to my old baseline. I know I can’t stay permanently in either state being both extremes. Trying to regulate my nervous system after many years of traumatic events.

I hope you heal and bounce back even stronger. I suggest looking into the story of Yusuf(Joseph). You may find great relief in that story.

Ben thank you so much for this most beautiful and inspiring video. I really needed it today. I have healed my brain through a brain retraining program too about 70% it has taken me years. The trauma was huge. I am not going to give up and I know what your saying is all TRUE! I am just a little bit down today but funny I am usually the happiest most positive person in my circle. Because we do appreciate things so much more than the average person, walking, eating sleeping all seem like privileges to me now. Thank you dear one for your care and refreshing viewpoints! Love Ava

I have a problem, I am severely ill and I have done brain training and where I’m stuck is that as soon as I talk about what I went through I get disregulated again. 😢

Please begin with self acceptance, self awareness, and knowing oneself fully, from the perspective of Jung.

I think animals do have the ability to become stronger through adversity too, they just can't tell us

Ha that's why I laid it out above 1. Awareness/ education 2. Emotional regulation. Knowing we can change our physiological state. 3. Disclosure. Acknowledge what has happened/ is happening and it is what it is. 4. Acceptance. Break neurophysiological loops 5. Narrative development. Insert new story. Condition new response. 6. Service. Community and pay it forward

Victor Frankle was not aware that there is no such thing as free will. I don't like his book and I think that his book is very damaging to ppl who are dealing with mental issues and pain.
