Description

When we are faced with trauma or feel threatened our senses are heightened, our  breath rate increases followed by heart rate, our blood flow is flooded with hormones that activate feeling and emotions. Peripheral blood vessels in the skin constrict, central blood vessels around vital organs dilate to fill them them with oxygen and nutrients, and muscles are pumped with blood, ready to react. Shock and Fear cause a spike in the hormonal response that lasts around 90 seconds. The compounding effect of ongoing threats or increased fear extends the bodies reaction for longer.

We can regulate these reactions with learnt rituals that bring and restore calm. And every time we do, we learn, we reflect, we seek to do better and we find a way to be in that moment that shows us we can.

Despite the Fear – Do it Anyway – Build Confidence

Every time you do something that you never or didn’t think you could do – you create confidence. An invisible and intangible sense of resilience.  You build on what you have done, making it possible to achieve what you want to do, or at least a step closer. .

Throughout the world, lighting candles is a sacred ritual.
 
 
You may light a candle for many purposes: to illuminate darkness, dedicate prayers, solidify intentions, offer blessings, evoke Spirit, release energy and/or to nourish Grateful Living. The ritual of lighting a candle may also be to pay tribute to a life ‘passed’ which has long been a part of our culture. Keeping a light burning in remembrance signifies that the memory still lives on and burns bright.
 
Lighting a candle symbolizes bringing light to our wishes or desires.
It is a ritual that promotes reflection and signifies remembrance.
A lit candle keeps the energy balance in the house.
They remove negative energy and convert it into positive energy.
Energy released from the candles cuts off the negative energy, which increases the positive energy on its own.
Candles are placed in front of Buddhist shrines as a mark of respect or deference.
There is a saying  “A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle”, this shows that if you assist someone you lose nothing by doing so.
 
Burning candles can greatly help you to fight stress and anxiety. Candles have calming properties. This is twofold, as the flickering light makes you feel calmer as the ambiance is more tranquil, and the particular scent the candle emits also helps to relax you. So using language in rituals can influence our view of the world — it shapes the relationships with people and things.

COMBINED WITH WORDS

Your words define how you see yourself and your situation. A growing body of research indicates that self-talk can improve your memory, confidence, focus and self worth. But you need the right strategy. Start by talking to yourself the same way you’d like someone else to speak to you

WORD ASSOCIATION

That conversation you are having with yourself is like talking to someone else, a version of you that needs to hear what you have to say. Whilst you don’t know everything you’re going to say — your words might surprise you.  Invest in developing your vocabulary and communication style.  

Practicing self-talk actually has many benefits.

Based on this, by using empowering words, (check out the study on the vibe of words  on Water Consciousness and how tone impacts) it is believed that word association can reveal something of a person’s subconscious mind (as it shows what things they associate together), but others have been skeptical of how effective such a technique could be in psychology. So here are some examples:

EMOTIONAL REGULATION IS KEY

The sympathetic nervous system’s primary process is to stimulate the body’s fight or flight response.

It is, however, constantly active at a basic level to maintain homeostasis.  The body systems are designed to “feed and breed” and to (then) “rest-and-digest”

The fight-or-flight or the fight-flight-or-freeze-fawn (also called hyperarousal or the acute stress response) is a physiological reaction that occurs in response to a perceived harmful event, attack, or threat to survival.

This response is recognised as the first stage of the general adaptation syndrome that regulates stress responses. You can support this adaptation by engaging in strategies that allow the body to self regulate. As we experience many emotions, often in duality or layered. 

Such as Grief at the loss of a relationship = Relief and Sadness
