Health and Healing Dealing with Trauma and Addictions
Hello, welcome to the podcast of health and healing in the areas of addiction and abuse, with Michael. My passion and interest started with becoming aware that many of us have childhood traumas that we carry into our adult lives, but we didn't have them addressed or never acknowledged that we had an addiction or a mental illness. Some of the abuses, we suffered were slight or verbal that we just wrote off, other abuses were kept in secret for many years. Now we want to expose those lie-based beliefs, through tools and partnering with the Holy Spirit to help us heal those traumas and Illnesses to become whole. Hurt people hurt people, so we must seek ways to heal so that we can assist others in their healing processes. Disclaimer: * I am not a doctor or professional therapist. However, I am licensed and an ordained Minister, who's interest was piqued as it related to my personal journey and struggles with addictions and abuses that found their way into every aspect of my life unknowingly. God knows I'm a work in progress. Come along as we heal together.
Health and Healing Dealing with Trauma and Addictions
Mental Health and Sleep Insomnia phobia
Most people know firsthand that sleep affects their mental state. The brain activity fluctuates during sleep, increasing and decreasing during different sleep that make up the sleep cycle.
Each stage plays a role in brain health, allowing activity in different parts of the brain to ramp up or down and enabling better thinking, learning, and memory.
The way that sleep and mental health are intertwined becomes even more apparent by reviewing what is known about how sleep is tied to a number of specific mental health conditions and neurodevelopmental disorders.
Somniphobia is the fear of falling asleep: Experiencing extreme fear or anxiety around sleep can have a direct impact on your overall health.
Both sleep and mental health are complex issues affected by a multitude of factors, but given their very close association, there is strong reason to believe that improving sleep can have a beneficial impact on mental and spiritual health and can be a component of treating many psychiatric disorders.

Anxiety can trigger depression and other behavioral physical and mental health issues. It is especially hard if you are dealing with other personal, work, relationship, or family-related issues. It is okay to ask for help.
