🧠 Trauma isn’t always visible — it lives in our nervous system.
Our brains develop automatic survival responses to protect us: Fight, Flight, Freeze, or Fawn. These are not “bad behaviors,” but learned ways to stay safe when we once felt powerless.

💡 Healing begins when we recognize these patterns, show compassion to ourselves, and learn new ways to feel safe again.

✨ Cuando ocultamos nuestras emociones ✨
Reprimir lo que sentimos puede darnos una falsa sensación de control, pero con el tiempo nuestras emociones se adormecen. Ya no sentimos dolor… pero tampoco alegría. Negar lo que pasa dentro de nosotros desconecta mente y cuerpo, creando vacío, apatía o ansiedad sin nombre.
🌱 Sentir no es debilidad: es conexión, autenticidad y salud emocional.

Trauma and Learning 🧠💔
When a child has experienced trauma, the brain stays in survival mode — making it hard to focus, remember, or regulate emotions.
In the classroom, this can look like distraction, defiance, or withdrawal, but underneath there’s a child trying to feel safe.
Safety and connection come before learning. 🌱

Enseñar a los niños a resolver conflictos 🤝
Resolver conflictos no se trata de ganar o perder, sino de aprender a escuchar, comprender y encontrar soluciones juntos.
Cuando enseñamos a los niños a expresar sus emociones con respeto, a ponerse en el lugar del otro y a buscar acuerdos, les damos herramientas para la vida. 🌱
La resolución de conflictos fortalece la empatía, la comunicación y la autoestima — pilares de relaciones sanas y seguras. 💬❤️

¿Qué es el amor y cómo se construye? 💞
El amor no es solo un sentimiento, es una decisión diaria.
Se construye con presencia, empatía, comunicación y respeto.
Nace del vínculo, pero crece con los actos. 🌱
Amar es elegir cuidar, incluso cuando no es fácil.

🧠✨ It’s not “What’s wrong with me?”
It’s “What happened to me — and how did it shape the way I feel, think, and connect?”

Trauma isn’t only the big, visible events. Sometimes it’s the quiet moments where you had to stay strong, shut down your feelings, or felt unheard and unsafe.
These experiences don’t just disappear — they shape how we protect ourselves today.

💡 Psychoeducation:

What happened: moments of loss, rejection, fear, or emotional neglect.

How it felt: unsafe, unseen, powerless, “not enough.”

How it shaped you: anxiety, perfectionism, avoidance, or people-pleasing.

💪 Healing starts with awareness:
1️⃣ Notice your reactions with compassion — they were once survival skills.
2️⃣ Practice grounding: deep breaths, body scans, mindful movement.
3️⃣ Rewrite the story — “I’m safe now, and I can feel without fear.”
4️⃣ Seek spaces (therapy, journaling, support) where your story can be held safely.

🌷Healing isn’t about “fixing” yourself — it’s about understanding how your past built your patterns, and choosing new ones with love.
