A speaker shares how healing from trauma through daily practice transformed their fight-or-flight response, relationships with family and friends, and career confidence. They credit consistent engagement with the material for producing what felt like a 180-degree shift in how they relate to themselves and others.
Not quite where I want it to be yet, but I feel like I've got the tools in my belt now to actually get it there and the tools to overcome some of the things that I've carried around with me in the past to— and being able to maybe pull them out of that backpack and get rid of them. It's a work in progress, but I'm getting there. Definitely to find an escape for myself to kind of get myself out of this hole that I'm in and become the person that I know that I can be and what everybody around me knows that I can be. And then to definitely, you know, repair damaged relationships in my life with my wife and my kids and surrounding families. Learning about some of my behaviors and the way that my brain works differently than other people's do, especially where that I've had a lot of trauma in the past. My brain functions a little differently than others, and my fight or flight mode kicks in a lot more than other people's. And I've also learned tools to correct that as well. Definitely have a lot more positive outlook on my situation. And how I can go about tackling my situation. I'm gonna take these issues head on and I'm gonna tackle them. I'm gonna overcome these things and I'm gonna get past them and I'm gonna live the life that I want. My relationships have improved quite a bit actually with a few people. I've actually been able to open up with several people about some of my past experiences and have conversations with them. And I've come to realize that there's a lot of unconditional love in my life and there's a lot of not just family, but there's a lot of friends that, you know, look up to me as a leader. They want me to be involved with them, voice my opinion to them, because they look at me as being a wise person. And, you know, it's crazy to see the differences when I actually have learned to love myself a little bit more than I used to in the past, that how different the world is now that I've actually learned to love myself a little bit. When somebody does give me a compliment, or somebody does acknowledge something that I've done that they like, or a good idea or something like that, it actually means something because I've learned for myself who I really am. It's a neat experience. You should definitely do it, and when you decide to do it, go all out. Go into it, dive into it, read these things on a daily basis, take advantage of it all. I will guarantee that you will take some tools out of this that will at least improve your life in an almost 180-degree difference, um, as far as your life being with yourself and your relationship with yourself. And I would also say that it gives you the empowerment to live through your life with the confidence that you need to get through things. There's just so much that you could take from this if you actually sit and think about it and look at it. A lot of these tools will take you in totally different, different directions in different areas of your life. It gives you You know, the communication tools and skills that you need to actually better yourself as far as your career. It gives you the tools that you need to actually better improve yourself as a person and gain the knowledge that you need as far as an emotional standpoint. And with that being said, it gives you the tools to connect with people you love and actually have a sustaining relationship with them, a fulfilling relationship with them. It opens a lot of doors to a lot of things, but I would definitely 100% recommend this.
