Shadow's Birthday
I am celebrating my birthday today at Evolution of Self! Instead of gifts, I would love to invite you donate to my most favorite charity, Dog Squad. Dog Squad is a shelter-less animal rescue that gives pups a second chance. They helped my old co-worker, Bernie and are a charity after my own heart.
Also, if you want to bring me a meaty bone, I will not mind at ALL!!
To donate dog squad, simply visit this link: Donate @ Dog Squad
AND DON'T FORGET TO SHARE!!

Acute Stress Stabilization Remote Group
This informed procedure is a structured approach for clients who experience strong sensory input, intense physical sensations, or heightened emotions after a traumatic event. It is most effective in the initial hours, days, or weeks when clients show severe distress or a decline in their functioning. The main goal is to stabilize the individual by reducing or eliminating distress from their uncomfortable memories. This process helps activate the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) system for better information processing of the event and experiences following the event. This method follows Psychological First Aid (PFA) principles, aiming to reduce distress and improve functioning. Ongoing care should be identified for patients needing ongoing support following the intervention.
