There Is No Health Without Mental Health (21/21)

Trauma often teaches us to stay silent, either because we were ignored, dismissed, or punished when we tried to express ourselves.

This learned silence can become a protective mechanism, where speaking up feels dangerous or pointless. We become tongue tight around authority figures but also in our personal relationships.

Healing from trauma is about undoing that conditioning—reclaiming your voice and recognizing that you have the right to be heard.

It’s about tackling the inner fears and insecurities that trauma has created within us.

By healing, you gradually rebuild the confidence to express your needs, feelings, and thoughts without fear, breaking free from the silence imposed by past wounds.
