Showing awareness and care for survivors of trauma requires detoxification environments with inclusive workflows to relieve circumstances of disability.

In every physical space, we prioritize relieving environmental toxic load.

The lower the toxic load, the lower the instance of any other kind of problem.

The lower the toxic load, the greater our success in easily addressing any given challenge.

People intersectionalized by violence may repeat something they don't want to happen... until their community is able to support them to repair their verbal neurology, to allow them to repeat something they would more prefer to repeat.

They may repeat this in words, or in experiences, or in their actions.

It is a request for the repair of community neurology that would allow the circumstance to change.

When we interpret it as such, we can help one another reestablish safety and stability immediately.

We do this through awareness and support of inclusive communications and the every day, kindness oriented conversations needed to sort out our individual circuitry.

Sometimes it is important to move through the healing of trauma at one pace or another. Often the pace needed by the healing organism is a pace based on the kind of communication that most benefits the community and the environment, as well as the organism themselves.

A particular pace of healing, a particular pace of language shifting, is necessary in order to communicate specific things about the process of healing and whatever preceded it.

When we honor the expressions and lived experiences of the individuals in our communities, we are interested in what is meant when they express themselves in certain ways.

If they express themselves in words and other expressions that seem to evoke horror, this is something we want to be interested in because it is something they are transmuting for the community through their experience.

When we are present with one another through these experiences, what we transmute becomes medicine for the individual and the community.

We experience together how experiences and expressions of horror change fundamentally into understanding and nourishment when we bring our caring and willing learning to them.

Is learning this way better than asking the individual to change and then teach us from a place of greater privilege?

Does learning this way offer a means of respecting people in a wider variety of different circumstances, so that no individual need be abandoned?

If yes, it is as simple as being willing to learn about someone else and respectfully bridge our languaging.
