    It’s the Holy Spirit that tells you what to speak & that’s why you can speak. He is speaking through you. You’re awesome Lysa🩷🌹

    EMDR helped me so much after experiencing betrayal in my marriage, separation, divorce and dealing with my ex, who was in a ptsd episode with paranoia, major depression and psychosis.

    Lysa has gone ahead of me in almost the very same yucky paths. Following her healing has helped me. I don't have the ability to get counseling or a brain scan. I can't even get to a Bible study. I'm stuck at home with an unpleasant roommate. I have always wanted to know WHERE the problem is in my brain. I would like to donate my brain for research! I'd also like to have that "engine" fixed and put back right. 48 years of living by the rules of others, being a people-pleaser for my mother. Now apologizing to people for the way my mother has treated them. I have a boundary with her. I don't have family and friends on a daily basis. I'm not working because of my unpredictable lows. I just have a bit of alimony to buy food and pay my for my phone. Dementia and Alzheimer's have been on both sides of my family. I know I've lost a lot of my memories. Just not sure if it's from trauma and my brain preserving itself, or declining of my brain entirely. I have two elderly dogs. They are the reason I wake up every day. My parents and my adult kids have turned their backs on me. I have Jesus. He is more than enough. Yet I am human and struggling.

      @reg8297 I play Contemporary Christian music as my daily soundtrack. I stop only to read the Bible. I'm reprogramming with His word. This is temporary. "You will suffer for a little while....then I will restore you." Both of my dogs passed away in the past month. I've never been without a dog but I'm finding freedom. I can stay away from the house longer. When I'm mentally/emotionally able, I can go stay with family across the state. Life is hard. We are fighting evil every minute. Except when we call on Jesus. Bad guys don't like that. 🫢 When you wake up, ask God to take your anxiety or troubles for the day. Tell Satan to get back! You got this. Earth is temporary. You belong to the great Father.

    Trauma takes a while to heal from. It's so important to have kindness, patience, and grace of oneself while going through the healing journey, because it's very messy. It was for me. Mindfulness meditation helped a lot, and therapy. Books like "30 Days to Reduce Anxiety" by Harper Daniels and "The Body Keeps the Score" by Kolk helped me detach from the thoughts.

    I follow you both on UA-cam and I could relate so much to everything Lysa was saying. Keep up the good work you two! Stay strong and courageous! 🙏🏼💜 i want to also say that Al-Anon has really helped me and my codependency, thinking i needed to fix everyone and everything. I have officially taken off my Supergirl cape and given it to God. Let go and Let God.🎉🎉🎉

    Thank you so much Lysa for sharing this video. Very exciting I don’t think I’ll ever get to visit Dr. Amen, but I know about him and have been telling my counselor that I would wish to get a brain scan but they’ve told me that insurance doesn’t cover the procedure. It was so exciting to watch and learn from your experience! I cannot tell you how grateful I am! The world is definitely a better place with you in it! ❤I praise God because He has blessed your efforts to help others . I have greatly benefited from listening to your insights.

    Hi. I love this video. I just found you. I live with complex PTSD from childhood trauma then losing 2 children as an adult. 1 due to cancer so there was a long drawn out trauma. I am currently doing emdr but have to take it slow because, well I still have to be able to function daily... wish I could come see you!

      Hi! These are often trauma responses. They are ways your body and brain are protecting you. Working with a trauma therapist can be helpful. They can help you learn to connect with your emotions and sensations and learn to stay present and grounded.

    I would guess that you can't remember where your car is because you haven't developed your navigational brain. People were designed to walk around a lot and remember how to find lots of different places. Driving too much, using too much GPS, or letting someone else drive all the time can reduce our own thinking abilities. Use it or loose it.

      Wow - what a callous & generalizing comment. That sort of thing usually comes from people who have never been through soul crushing experiences or who in fact has & became hardened & bitter as a result of not being courageous enough to do the hard work of honestly dealing with the impact of those tough situations & being committed to not become a broken, bitter and unkind person. I’ve been through more than most people & yet I’ve always held myself to honestly address the trauma and then allow myself to resist becoming a hardened victim with a cruel chip on their shoulder. It’s not negative things happening to you that makes you tough - it’s overcoming them the right way & Lear from them and then comforting and encouraging others who go through. Maybe try that approach…
