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.

Hot Car Death and Trauma

*Yes, this may be difficult for some to listen to or hear.*
Hot car deaths are a thing. In fact the numbers are dangerously higher than anticipated. 1000 children have died in car deaths since 1990. 37 children under the age of 15 die each year from heatstroke, or vehicle hyperthermia.
Also, have you ever heard of "forgotten "Baby Syndrome?" This refers to when a parent accidentally leaves a baby or child in a locked car and walks away without thinking about their child or children in the back seat.
We should not judge these parents—remember these are accidents. Sometimes motor memory kicks in and you are preoccupied with tasks and future duties. Even a well-intentioned loving parent gets distracted, and 56% of car deaths still occur.
As we get better with technology and education, we must remember our imperfect brains need assistance—our human memory is faulty and can fail us at any time. Children are the focus here, but an elderly loved one should not be left in hot cars either.
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. Please be aware that it is okay to ask for help.
