Do you know you have the right to your space, your body, how you move and interact?
When we had trauma happen to us, our voice and ability to stand up for our selves may be taken away.
Our mind and body live to protect us. When we are subject to threatening people, places and events we move into "Fight, Flight, Freeze or Fawn."
This is how these survival skills show up in the human mind and body
Flight-Run away, workaholic, over-thinking, anxiety, panic, perfectionism,
Fight- Anger, controlling, bullying, explosive,oppositional
Freeze-difficulty making decisions, stuck, dissociative, isolating, numb
Fawn-codependent, people pleaser, lack of identity, low boundaries
We can work on your sense of self and ability to negotiate space with other people
