A social post from @lifeboatacademy which says: “If an organism is stuck in survival mode, its energies are focused on fighting off unseen enemies, which leaves no room for nurture, care, and love. For us humans, it means that as long as the mind is defending itself against invisible assaults, our closest bonds are threatened, along with our ability to imagine, plan, play, learn and pay attention to other peoples' needs. — Bessel van der Kolk
A society stuck in survival mode can’t nurture, imagine, or plan.
When nervous systems brace for threat, bonds fray and care thins — not from apathy, but overload. This is a regulation issue, not a character flaw.

"Self-regulation depends on having a friendly relationship with your body. Without it you have to rely on external regulation — from medication, drugs like alcohol, constant reassurance, or compulsive compliance with the wishes of others." Bessel van der Kolk

A social post from @lifeboatacademy which says: "No matter how much insight and understanding we develop, the rational brain is basically impotent to talk the emotional brain out of its own reality." — Bessel van der Kolk

A social post from @lifeboatacademy which says: “We have learned that trauma is not just an event that took place sometime in the past; it is also the imprint left by that experience on mind, brain, and body. This imprint has ongoing consequences for how the human organism manages to survive in the present. Trauma results in a fundamental reorganization of the way mind and brain manage perceptions. It changes not only how we think and what we think about, but also our very capacity to think.” — Bessel A. van der Kolk
