ABOUT LOVE LETTERS TO YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM<\/h3>\n

Here is where you read or write a love note to your nervous system. It’s meant to a place for survivor inspiring survivor. I believe we best know what we need for comfort, support and love but we often don’t remember that wisdom until we’re not terrified, triggered or post-traumatically stressed.<\/h3>\n

Here’s where we remind ourselves and each other of what we know and have learned. What we sometimes forget.<\/h3>\n

This is a type of support for mid-symptom kind of times when what you know to be true doesn’t seem to register yet. Eventually, these will be on audio as hearing sound can be more soothing than reading when “in the shit” of post-traumatic stress.<\/h3>\n

So, if you have some words you want to document for yourself so next time you’re having a hard time (and maybe there won’t be a next time – but just in place) you can retrieve your own counsel. Or, share your gems with others who may not be where you are on the journey yet or right now.<\/h3>\n

Write a letter and leave it as a comment. Let me know if you want your name shared or to keep it anonymous and I’ll add it the website. The most important thing is to share from your soul. Whatever would help you would help another too. Trust and believe that. Thank you.<\/h3>\n

Warmly,<\/h3>\n

Cissy<\/h3>\n

P.S. Here’s a link to the Survivor Love Letter Project<\/a> which is more recent and BEAUTIFUL and inspiring.<\/h3>\n

Dear You: <\/strong><\/h1>\n

Maybe it’s 2 a.m. and you don’t have a therapist on speed dial and don’t want to\u00a0wake up a spouse, relative or friend.<\/p>\n

Maybe you’ve tried every bit of self-soothing and can’t find relief.<\/p>\n

Maybe you\u00a0are looking for something that will make you feel better or just less alone.<\/p>\n

This is the place to\u00a0remember that\u00a0 “this too shall pass” and breathing is not optional!<\/p>\n

When anxiety is gripping or you are having a despair attack I know it’s easy to\u00a0forget everything you usually know.<\/p>\n

And that means you are in the throws of trauma because that’s what trauma does. When\u00a0the nervous system is on high alert it’s easy to lose contact with all you\u00a0love, trust and believe.\u00a0In fact, what you usually know deep can feel remote.<\/p>\n

Love Notes to Your Nervous System is Me Reminding Me of What You Probably Know 95% of the Time and Can’t Hold on To When You’re Post-Traumatically Stressed Out.<\/p>\n

These notes are for you, for now, if you are feeling triggered or frayed. And if and when you are feeling better, please write a Love Note to Your Nervous System for YOURSELF for next time and\/or for someone else! What you know matters. What helps you will help others. Let’s build a reservoir for remembering for the times we forget what we know.<\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/h2>\n

Me<\/h2>\n
