When Awe Speaks, the Inner Critic Falls Silent

You don’t have to earn awe.

You don’t have to deserve it.

After trauma, your brain learns that feeling = danger.

So it avoids — memories, emotions, even your own body.

That’s how PTSD symptoms take root.

As in

⚡️Intrusive memories or nightmares
⚡️Feeling on edge or shut down
⚡️Avoiding reminders or sensations
⚡️Heavy shame or self-blame

Avoidance brings relief for a moment, but it teaches your brain that thoughts or feelings are unsafe.

So the fear stays. The cycle continues.

There are ways to teach your nervous system how to soften.

Healing can happen! And does.

Anxiety often hides behind physical symptoms like restlessness, racing thoughts, or even stomach discomfort. Many people don’t realize what they’re experiencing is anxiety. Awareness helps in naming it, and naming it is the first step toward managing it effectively.

Recovery is not about perfection—it’s about progress. Practicing self-compassion eases shame and fosters resilience. Treating yourself with the same kindness you’d offer a friend can transform healing. Self-compassion is the bridge between struggle and growth.

Body Dysmorphic Disorder and Eating Disorders are often confused, yet they are distinct. BDD focuses on perceived flaws in appearance, while EDs revolve around food, weight, and shape. Understanding the differences helps in offering proper support and treatment pathways.

Emotional intelligence is about understanding and managing emotions. Emotional maturity is applying that wisdom in real-life situations. Together, they foster healthier relationships, better decision-making, and resilience in life’s challenges. Developing both creates a strong foundation for personal growth.
