One of our friends in Monterey let us take his Boston Whaler out for a spin, and Ira discovered... again... that she likes to go fast! She asked me to sit in the front so I could feel what it was like to try to take photographs from the front of the boat, and boy was it bumpy! She offered to speed up to try to skip across the wave tops a bit more, but I felt like it was plenty fast. Just like on a bumpy road, sometimes the best way to smooth out the ride is to go 100MPH...?

🌌 Tuning Out: A Hidden Trauma Response 🌌 Have you ever found yourself zoning out during a conversation, feeling like you're watching life from a distance? This is known as "tuning out," a common trauma response that many people experience. Here’s what you need to know ✨What It Is: Tuning out is a protective mechanism wherein the mind detaches itself from overwhelming emotions or stressful situations. It's like hitting the pause button and allowing you to escape reality when the feelings are too much to bear. 🔍 Why This Happens: The human brain seeks refuge and security when confronted with the memory of trauma or fear. Tuning out is, in effect, a means of protection against an undesirable memory or sensation that develops a temporary safe haven. 🛑 Signs You May Be Tuning Out: 1. You catch yourself daydreaming or staring off into space during conversations. 2. It would almost seem that you saw life, only you're unable to become a part of it. 3. Time slips away and you can hardly remember what happened within the day. ❣️ Remember: Healing is a journey, and it is okay to ask for support along the way. In acknowledging your responses to your trauma, you are brave enough to work toward your recovery.  You are not alone; support is always available to walk you on your journey toward wholeness. Silence upon answers to trauma should be broken and let us understand the same together.
