Experiencing a traumatic event can leave you with feelings of fear, physical reactions to triggers, and emotional numbness. The burden of carrying around such trauma can create an overwhelming cloud of negativity.

➡️ Try this:

📓 Journal: Writing down negative thoughts provides a safe and constructive outlet for emotions. It allows you to express and release pent-up feelings, without judgment, which can prevent negative thoughts from becoming too overwhelming.

🩵 Positive Affirmations: Place positive affirmations in areas around your home, work, car etc., or wherever you spend your time. The more you see and read them, the greater chance you will think of them when you need to.

🚲 Exercise Regularly: Exercise releases endorphins, neurotransmitters in the brain, that act as natural mood lifters. Consistent exercise can reduce stress, increase energy, and help you sleep better - all factors that affect depression and anxiety.

🧘 Mindful Meditation: The practice of mindful meditation often involves paying attention to bodily sensations, such as the breath. This connection between the mind and body can create a sense of grounding, making it easier to detach from distressing negative thoughts.

As you embark on the path to making positive change, it’s crucial to understand that transformation doesn’t happen overnight. Practice becomes your ally and offers a steady guide towards a brighter and more resilient future.
