After a traumatic experience, the way we relate to others can feel... complicated. You may notice that you’re more sensitive to noise, touch, or conversation. People may be reaching out with good intentions—but you find yourself exhausted, overwhelmed, or unsure how to respond. Your nervous system is still working hard to return to safety, and sometimes, other people (even kind, well-meaning ones) can unintentionally stir the storm again. That’s why it’s crucial to give yourself full permission to protect your peace while you heal. Below are six reminders and practical tools to help you care for yourself while navigating others in the days and weeks following a traumatic event.

When trauma gets stuck in the body, it doesn’t only show up in flashbacks or triggers during the day. It can quietly, invisibly shape your sleep. How you lie in bed. What your hands do unconsciously. Whether you drift off peacefully—or not at all. For many trauma survivors, the nervous system doesn’t recognize sleep as a safe state. Instead, it stays alert, half-on-guard, monitoring the environment for danger—even in dreams. In this blog post, we’ll explore how stuck trauma can impact sleep, particularly through unconscious body positioning, nighttime imagery, and sleep disruptions. You’ll also learn one gentle but powerful way to reduce nighttime flashbacks and hypnagogic experiences. #sleep #trauma #hypervigilance #flashbacks #traumahealing

Trauma doesn’t just live in the mind—it lodges itself in the body and nervous system. After a traumatic event, your system is flooded with stress hormones, your vagus nerve is often stuck in high-alert mode, and you may feel dissociated, numb, hypervigilant, or emotionally overwhelmed. What you do in the hours and days after a trauma matters. In fact, research shows that early, trauma-informed interventions can significantly reduce the likelihood of PTSD developing. Here are 9 science-backed, soul-soothing self-care tools to support your healing right now—no diagnoses or deep diving required. Just gentle, grounding, and effective practices to help your nervous system remember: you are safe now. These tools are not about fixing yourself—they’re about reclaiming your safety, one small, loving act at a time.
