21.01.2022 #stressrelief #nurses #trauma Yesterday I had an encounter with a huge poisonous snake I live on the land so this is not unusual ... The difference between now and years gone by ...is that I allowed myself to scream As a nurse I created skills to stay calm in any situation but then I forgot how to express my feelings I intuitively felt this snake and looked around in all the wrong places so I gave it up as my imagination Then ( in bare feet ) I barged through a small gate and interrupted the biggest snake I have ever seen ( king brown I suspect ) with a large mouse partially through his jaw . Now I don’t usually worry about nature doing it’s thing but this was right near my bare feet .... My beloved Magic the dog was too close for comfort also .. so I consciously decided to scream and keep screaming Understanding how trauma ( nearly stepping on said snake in this case ) is stored in the body is a major step to not only healing but preventing further illness . By screaming and then running when way out of range of snake I released the trauma of the experience almost completely. The book ‘The body keeps the score ‘ by Bessel van der Kolk ... is one of the many books that taught me this information . How do you handle mini daily traumas ? (Picture to help calm your system after reading this scary story ) Breathe deeply and exhale slowly so as not to be traumatised my my trauma No ... I mean it ... please breathe
