How Trauma May Affect A Person’s Perception
We define perception as the organization, identification, and interpretation of sensory information in order to represent and understand the presented information or environment. How Can Trauma Affect Our Perception? Primarily, when we endure traumatic situations, some more severe than others, it may affect our thought patterns and cause us to have convictions about certain situations. When we hold onto our tightly held convictions, sometimes it may be hard to change them, and these beliefs become your perceptions. When you interact with other people concerning the same issue, you may have a different view from the other person. In most cases, your tightly held convictions make it very difficult to see the other person’s…

How To Overcome Unhealthy Fear And Live With A Sound Mind
The Fight Or Flight Response Adrenaline and Cortisol are important hormones because they help the body protect itself from danger. These hormones are commonly known as ‘the fight or flight response’. They work like this; when you are faced with a frightening moment, your first response may be to fight or run away. These hormones help us to decide what to do and what happens is that our adrenaline shoots up and puts us in survival mode to protect us from danger. In this respect, fear can be a good emotion because it helps us to make a safe and decisive decision. But fear can become unhealthy when our Adrenaline…

How To Build A Good Emotional Health
As an adult, where does your EMOTIONAL FULFILLMENT comes from – It should come from God!! As a child, that emotional fulfillment should come from your parents.

The Importance Of Parent-Child Bonding
The parent-child bonding process is the genesis of the child’s psychological development. Therefore, the absence of the bonding process could, in fact, produce stress and trauma in a child’s life. In addition, experiences such as neglect, abandonment, and lack of communication could be subtle ways the child may experience trauma. The Bonding Process When there is an active bonding process, both parent and child produce an essential hormone and chemical called Oxytocin, a vital chemical needed for bonding.

These chemicals help in the development of the child’s brain and help them function successfully in society. They…

The Philosophy Of God Involving Man In His Creative Process
We need to allow God to do His work in our life; What we have to do is to wait on Him for instructions on how to proceed. In contrast, when we try to do what only God can, we risk living a life of stress, worry, and anxiety. To have God work in our life calls for us to depend on Him and Trust Him entirely. How Does The Creating Process Happen? For spiritual things, God takes care of them, but when it comes to the physical aspect of creating, God will give us the instruction and the go-ahead on how to handle the creation process. This act calls for us to…

The Philosophy Of The Two Types Of Wisdom
To be blunt, The Lord says everyone is born with foolishness in their heart – we can read that in Proverbs. Foolishness is the opposite of wisdom. Proverbs 22:15 AMP says – Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; The rod of discipline [correction administered with godly wisdom and lovingkindness] will remove it far from him. So I ask a curious question if that foolishness is not removed from the child’s heart, do they grow up as adults and make unwise decisions? We can debate that question in the comment section or something for you to think about – What Is Wisdom? Initially, Adam was surrendered to God. He had…

The Powerful Ways God Used People To Accomplish His Purpose
We worship a Big God who desires fellowship with us and wants to involve us with the work that He is doing here on earth.

Studying God’s creative process gives us a peak into who He is and His heart toward humankind. The People God Used And Their…

How God Heals Us From Traumatic Symptoms
Traumatic symptoms are symptoms that a large amount of the population suffers from – after a recent study, children as young as five years old were rushed to the hospital for battling with suicidal thoughts. A person is made of spirit, soul, and a human body. Genesis 2:7 – And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Our human body enables us to survive in the material world, and it ‘houses’ both our spirit and soul. However, our spirit is ‘dead’ at birth until we believe in Jesus and come to salvation; we then become ‘born again.’ (John 3:3) …
