When you live under constant threat, silence is an “alert calm” that allows you to be extremely aware of your surroundings… in case of threat. Sound therapy is more effective than silent meditation for people that are oppressed unless you are out of the threatening environment or in a group setting
When you first meet a client and you ask them how they’re doing and their first words to you are “I’m afraid sending my kids to school every morning because they might get taken and deported without me” 😭
This some BS . I’m from Bridgeport. The reason the number of those marriages is that high is because WE HAVE THE LARGEST IMMIGRANT COMMUNITY. Ofc it’s gonna be higher there 😭
Hearing the higher ups say “thank you, really, thank you, you were able to get deeper with this client than anyone in any program we’ve placed them in”. A WIN. When you see people as humans, their guard lowers and you find the “anger” is just pain.
Every time I drive to/from work on the highway I blast Fuck the Police and slow down a lil when I pass the spots they parked up at so they can hear it clearly🤣
