Too many to count. Unfortunately, we’re raised to not pay attention to our “gut feeling.” Or I should say, that’s how it worked out for me. I have a difficult time “trusting” my instincts, but I’ve gotten better at it, simply by looking back over the course of my life and identifying each and every time something really bad happened and remembering that YES, my intuition……my instinct was dead on, trying to warn me of danger. When it happens now, I slow down and give myself time to let the universe show me why another person is unsafe. And in a heightened sense of panic…..lol, I steer clear of those folks without hesitation.

Yes, two months ago I got the corona vaccine and my husband is against the vaccine, so after that day, repeatedly several times a day, news of people who died of the corona vaccine and the side effects of the corona vaccine He told me that after a few days, my sex with him was cut off and he was bleeding for two days before my uterus. As a result of this reaction of my body and the news and…. These had a profound effect on my relationship with my students, friends, colleagues, and family

Hi Friends
Years ago I was jogging and out of no where a car came at me and I did not know why I was throwing myself face first to the side. I saw the car after I was on the ground. I understood everything afterward when another jogger explained to me that I almost jump over the car and the funny thing was that I was there but it seemed like I wasn’t.

Daily unfounded fear.

Theres to many instances to count, where my survival instincts took over, and I will admit that it’s nearly impossible to think clearly when that happens. It’s very frustrating. It will kick in over the most ridiculous and silly situations, and it kicks in before I have a chance to recognize its nearing.

In several relationships I did not feel save because of feeling attacked by the others
I felt not understood and respected in my personal feelings and being
Then I went in my survival ¨stand¨
