Healing Trauma as a Christian Mama

Nervous System pt. 3 Flight Response


Listen Later

The Flight Response is part of the sympathetic nervous system response, which means we are activated but want to FLEE asap!


We go into these in detail in the episode but a few things we look at are how this shows up in different area's of life. 

As an adult you might notice:

- the need to stay busy or always be on the go

-riddles with worry, fear, anxiety or overwhelm

In Relationships you might:

-Avoid hard convos or walk away in arguments

-Break up every time something gets hard

As a parent you might:

-be unable to handle the crying and tantrums and just want to hide in the bathroom

-be overwhelmed or overstimulated a lot

Kid's Flight Response might look like:

-Running away

-Hard time paying attention, Restless, Hyperactive 

-Sensory Processing Issues 

We end the episode talking about how we can support ourselves and our kids in the FLIGHT response
