Neuro-Trauma Informed Mindfulness

This is helpful because I have dysautonomia with surges of cortisol for no reason or I get stuck in fight or flight and sensory overwhelm. Thank you.

Dysautonomia 

It helped a lot to break down why I am feeling the way I am feeling, use gratitude to combat negativity 

I was more aware of my thought process

I can change the outcome of my reactions and actions. 
I may not seek control but i do seek peace

Flow like a stream

I learned that, as the brain has evolved to survive, someone will submit to a more dominant person in a social situation if the risk of being harmed (either physically, mentally or socially) is too great, because ‘survival’ is more important than getting their point across.  

Neuro-Responses: Cortisol

What is cortisol and why does it make me feel so stressed out? How can I stop feeling so angry, scared, or stressed out? Why do I feel dread at work? If you want to understand your survival brain and the stress hormone cortisol, take a listen. You'll also learn ways to develop awareness, develop new habits, and build new neuropathways that help to sustain and calm you.
