Stress of Death

To more fully understand Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is to see it as a brain injury, not a mind disorder. PTSD is a chronic and debilitating injury affecting the neural circuits, including the brain’s amygdala and prefrontal cortex. This brain injury most often heals itself, but sometimes PTSD is so severe it can last for years, destroying one’s life. 

PTSD is most known from war casualties and adults and children who experience physical or sexual abuse, accidents, disasters, or other serious events. It is also essential to understand that not all people who experience PTSD have been through a traumatic event. Some may experience this brain injury after the unexpected death of a loved one, friend, or even witnessing a stranger being involved in trauma such as an auto accident. 

Those who usually experience a trauma followed by PTSD have already experienced brain injury from childhood traumas, experiencing a life of imbalance, lack of feeling secure, or painful issues with relationships. 

The National Institute of Mental Health states the following.

To be diagnosed with PTSD, an adult must have all of the following for at least one month:

1. At least one re-experiencing symptom
2. At least one avoidance symptom
3. At least two arousal and reactivity symptoms
4. At least two cognition and mood symptoms

Re-experiencing symptoms include:

•  Flashbacks—reliving the trauma over and over, including physical symptoms like a racing heart or sweating
•  Bad dreams
•  Frightening thoughts

Re-experiencing symptoms may cause problems in a person’s everyday routine. The symptoms can start from the person’s thoughts and feelings. Words, objects, or situations that are reminders of the event can also trigger re-experiencing symptoms.

PTSD develops differently from person to person. While PTSD symptoms most commonly develop in hours or days following the traumatic event, it can sometimes take weeks, months, or even years before they appear.

Symptoms of PTSD can come and go over time. Sometimes symptoms appear seemingly out of the blue. At other times, they are triggered by something that reminds you of the original traumatic event such as a noise, an image, certain words, or even a smell. 

If you feel you or a loved one has PTSD seek assistance from a qualified person.

Cannabis, a natural herb, has been shown to assist people with PTSD and many other ailments greatly. Cannabis is becoming more and more available in the United States, including Colorado, although cannabis is still prohibited on the United States’ federal level. In my opinion, cannabis will become legal on the federal level only when the pharmaceutical corporations take total and complete control and genetically modify it. 

At this time, there are many people worldwide who believe cannabis is evil and destroys lives. I would ask those to research how this herb became illegal. Many smoke cannabis to escape and some people also drink wine to escape. 

In 2015 I taught my Advanced Students of Life Energy Flow Tai Yi a treatment titled “Stress of Death.”

This treatment works with PTSD in helping to heal intense issues of trauma. Many attach this disorder to war, but this disorder can result from childhood trauma, sexual abuse, mental abuse, emotional abuse, or physical abuse. Some forms of trauma as an adult, which can lead to PTSD, are car accidents, natural disasters, and sudden illness, such as a stroke, heart attack, or death of a loved one.

Old beliefs die hard; unfortunately, many die before their old judgmental beliefs die. Would it not be a wonderful world if only truth could be spoken versus the lies of this world’s elite corporations? Would it not be wonderful if healing became a priority in everyone’s life?
