Soul freedom is found when we walk into the light rather than hiding the hurts. This is especially true with Moral Injury, as guilt and shame thrive in the dark.

Whereas PTSD triggers a “fight or flight” reaction to external threats, Moral Injury creates a “guilt and/or shame” response to internal threats.

We aren’t required to react when we recognize an emotional feeling. Rather, we can step back and “read” what our heart is saying. Then, we can respond in a healthy manner.

The brain is a complex organ that stores information and facilitates automatic responses— among its other features. We can “train our brain” to enhance peak performance in each environment we encounter. You've done it before; you can do it again.

It’s easy to read present circumstances in light of past experiences. Some of our misperceptions in the present might be related to PTSD.

There aren’t good emotions and bad emotions. Only healthy and unhealthy expressions of them. Emotional health is a component of total health.

Many of our emotional disruptions are normal responses to abnormal events. Though most of us aren’t diagnosable for a mental or emotional health disorder, we will all benefit from “leveling up” our health in these areas.
