🎉 Children and Trauma: Hope is Here: Don’t miss this study and Spread the good news!! 📞 📬 📧 🦅 Nicki Bush and her team have biologically documented that recovery ifrom the invisible scars of trauma is possible through connection. This is something we may witness clinically but to see it in this study is really beautiful!! 🌸 🚀 Dr Stephen Porges says, “Trauma compromises our ability to engage with others by replacing patterns of connection with patterns of protection.”In this groundbreaking work we see that the biology of trauma can also be reversed preventing predictable future mental and physical illness and a lifetime of unresolved issues. #strongertogether #savechildhood#polyvagaltheory #happychildren Lou Lebentz Sofia Capria Cendie S.

⚠️ Priority Children/Adult Mental Health: Ultraprocessed Foods is an epidemic 65% of our diet and children’s! (Think of its impact on the undeveloped frontal lobe) Even mainstream news is reporting this now (Finally) Food matters and it is creating pathology. We generally only change things when we are in enough pain, children don’t know this and need adults to make better choices for them. 50% of children under age 16 have at least one diagnosed chronic illness. This should not be normalized or accepted but altered and supported so we can work together to #savechildhood. UPF’s are definitively linked to system and brain inflammation, anxiety, depression, suicidality, chronic illness, learning challenges, gut dysfunction and more. ✨Our choices in food🌱Our exposures through all of our senses: the 5 PLUS: ProprioceptiveNeuroceptionInteroceptiveVestibular🧘♂️The state of our nervous system #polyvagaltheoryAll contribute to our moment to moment sense of safety, feeling of comfort or threat, physical, emotional and brain 🧠 health. “We are our parts and we are more than the sun of our parts.”#mentalhealth #brianhealth #childrensbrains #anxiety #depression

The wonderful Miriam Mandel, MD is offering an educational session for parents and educators about the inevitable vaping situation all children are facing with the full support of marketing wizards focused on middle school and high school. Learn strategies to support children who often become addicted because nicotine is a stimulant that helps many to feel more emotionally calm and regulated. 😔

Dr Kathryn Murray thank you for bringing awareness to the way children feel the most safe in learning environments and just how greatly this impacts their access to a brain that’s ready to learn! 🎉 🧠

✨✨Polyvagal Theory Polyvagal Institute Dr. Stephen Porges said,”We need to get the body into states in which it can regulate and feel more comfortable with itself."✨✨Our state will determine how our body responds to stressors AND how it will support or undermine our resilience. 🤗 How do we help to restore our resilience? 🔎🔎🔎Through finding connection with self, and others, but that is easier said than done when we aren’t looking at all the parts stopping us from feeling safety IN our body, which alters our ability to stay present, which is necessary TO connect. 🌸🥰This becomes much easier when we reduce the stimuli that are creating cues of threat in our physiology and reducing our access to enjoy and assimilate cues of safety. 🤯♾️♾️It’s an infinity loop, that cannot be teased apart as neuroscience is now proving ♾️. Our Enteric Nervous System, Brain Gut Axis and Vagus Nerve health and communication are sorting our inner and outer cues, determining safety or threat and creating a story through this lens that enforces our existing belief based on our brains ability to use history and prediction. 🧠 Our state determines our reactions to our input (including food sensitivities, gut dysfunction and more! ) Our Neuroception,Proprioception, Interoception, inflammation, vestibular, microbiome and gut-brain axis will impact our access to a more regulated state in which we can then respond through lens of safety rather than threat to the moment to moment stimuli we are digesting. “We are our parts, and we are more than the sum of our parts.”Stephanie D'Angelo Suzie Cavassa Michael Allison Miriam Mandel, MD Agnes Palinkas Cendie Stanford Vagus Nerve Society Vanessa Elias Integrative Medicine for Mental Health (IMMH) Armando Gonzalez-Stuart, Ph.D.

🧘 🌞 Polyvagal Theory & Daily Life:How To Effectively Clear The Road For Deeper Connection To Self & Others = Create More Safety In The ANS In Our Daily Lives. 🌞 🏔️ 🌸 📢 Dr. Stephen Porges, "Trauma compromises our ability to engage with others by replacing patterns of connection with patterns of protection." 🔎 Let's look with curiosity through a different lens, as this is true for Children & Adults & Neuroscientists at #Harvard agree!🔥 We are constantly experiencing Microtraumas on a moment-to-moment basis that are eroding our potential to find balance and recover from the patterns of protection.Essentially, we are always being cued for threat in our modern world, however! We CAN learn how our body truly digests our inner and outer environment in order to help shift ourselves into more comfortable physiological states.😖Our bodies were not designed to find homeostasis in the face of the following: 👎🏼 Constant Fight/Flight👎🏼Loss of #Connection to self & others (How can we stay present in our body to connect with others, when it is constantly cuing us that we are unsafe?)👎🏼A Firehose of Daily Information 👎🏼#Isolation👎🏼#Addiction to screens and substances for coping techniques👎🏼Barraging #Sensory Stimuli👎🏼Late Night Schedules disturbing cortisol👎🏼Ultra Processed Foods 👎🏼Sedentary Lifestyle which creates reduced #Proprioception which brain needs for safety👎🏼Increasing #Epigenetic Challenges👎🏼Chemicals in the Air & Water👎🏼Lack of Sunshine & Fresh AirWhether for ourselves, our children or patients/clients, we need to understand what is presenting to us through ALL of our sensory systems in order to truly support the needs of anyone. 📢📢📢"Behavior is the downstream effect of the real-time processing of internal and external cues." 📢📢📢Many diagnosis are simply pathologizing inevitable responses to a Brain🧠or Gut on Fire🔥Reducing the causes of challenging symptoms, can help our systems work together better and increase efficacy of other therapeutics like Somatic Embodiment practices Jan Winhall (Author) Stephanie D'Angelo Understanding how these are impacting the Autonomic Nervous System and mental/emotional health can CHANGE everything for the BETTER! ❤️🤗✨Gut #Microbiome/Enteric Nervous System✨#Inflammation✨Proprioception✨#Neuroception✨Interoception✨Vestibular Input✨Neurological Vision (how the brain is interpreting information from the eyes) #polyvagaltheory #pediatric #attachment #functionalmedicine #neuroscience Dr Mine Conkbayir Julie Kurtz Andrea Edmondson Shannon Eastman Uma Naidoo, M.D. The Mental Health Literacy Collaborative Richard DiPilla Integrative Medicine for Mental Health (IMMH)
