After stress, animals undergo a natural healing process. They shake, tremble, or breathe deeply, which helps their bodies recover and calms their nervous systems after intense stress. If these stress hormones are not processed, they can lead to PTSD, depression, and anxiety in mammals. While humans also have the ability to process trauma, we’ve forgotten how to use it:

3: Your childhood coping mechanisms become your adult symptoms. As a child, you needed to adapt to survive. • People-pleasing? Came from needing love & approval. • Numbing emotions?
