Second Approach to Healing Trauma

Posted on by thuyhongn

In addition to healing trauma using supplements to heal the brain and body. We also need to address it at another mental level as we are mind body and spirit. I discovered this method while researching on YouTube.

Another method to healing trauma is Safe & Sound Protocol which was invented by Stephen Porges. It’s not invasive and helpful. A negative side of it is that it’s not paid by medical insurance. It will cost about $300. It will calm your auditory nervous system and very gentle. Yes, I used it noticed a difference. I became a bit calmer.

What Safe and Sound Protocol does is you listen with a headphone for at least 6 hours of music with certain embedded sound. Make sure you choose uninterrupted time. I highly recommend it if you can afford to rent the tool.

DISCLAIMER: I am neither a doctor nor a psychiatrist, all my stories are through personal experiences.

Getting a Goodnight Sleep During A Traumatic Period

Posted on by thuyhongn

If you are experiencing challenges right now, you are not alone!  We all go through a valley at one time or another in our live.  I went through two job losses; Plus, I lost my dad. Then, five years later I lost my mother. It was the darkest time of my life.  Worrying about finance and stress had brought me into a black hole.  I experienced insomnia, anger, rage, and physical ailments.  My head contained thousands of non-productive and destructive thoughts during my awaken time. As a result, I experienced sleep deprivation.  Plus, I got pulled in multiple directions: driving my daughter to school and then drove back from her school to a local public station to take the train to San Francisco.  I constantly worried that I would be late to work.  I couldn’t sleep through the night and woke up multiple times during my sleep.

On a physical level, I exercised, and did yoga weekly but my brain was in a negative loop; however, I still couldn’t sleep well at all until l I discovered these amino supplements and an East Indian herb.  I totally felt more rested during the day.  They are L-Tryptophan, GABA, and Ashwagandha.  I have experimented with the dosage and have found the best one that has worked for me.

Looking back, this was a greatest blessing because it deepens me spiritually.
