Protecting our children starts with the nervous system of the adult

When the collective nervous system trembles:

About what becomes visible… and how we respond

Recently, there has been a lot of movement around the Epstein files.

What comes to light is heavy. Painful. Disturbing.

You don’t need to know the details to feel it: this touches something deep.

It touches power. It touches innocence. It touches trust.

And especially…it touches children.

Let us be very clear: every victim deserves recognition.

Recognition in love. Recognition without doubt. Recognition without minimization.

What happened cannot be hidden. What becomes visible demands truth.

And our children deserve protection. Always.

As a mother of three daughters, I don’t experience this as an abstract issue. I feel it in my body. In my heart. The longing for them to grow up safely. For their innocence to be respected. For power to never stand above their dignity.

And at the same time… we also feel this in our nervous system.

Even before forming an opinion, even before analyzing or discussing, our body reacts. Perhaps you notice it too? A tension in your belly, a restlessness, a sense of disgust, a wave of anger or grief. That is human. That is allowed.

We live in a time when many hidden pieces are coming to light.This is intense for the collective field, and it is intense for our bodies.

When our nervous system becomes overwhelmed, we easily switch back to survival mode. We want to fight. Judge. Polarize. It gives us a sense of control.

But true protection does not arise from dysregulation; it arises from clarity.

Love does not mean looking away. Love means standing strong. Drawing boundaries.

Being vigilant. But doing this without losing our humanity.

When we remain in hatred for too long, our bodies carry that tension, the collective carries that tension.

And then we build a new world with the same energy as the old one.

Perhaps the invitation of this time is subtler and braver.

To remain present with what is difficult, without closing our hearts.To acknowledge victims with love and consciously protect our children, and at the same time not allow anger to take over.

This time invites us to move beyond division and remain fully present in our humanity.

For me, this is not theory. It is a daily practice.

In my work, I guide people in calming their nervous system. Not because something is “wrong” with them, but because a body that feels safe allows clear perception.

When the nervous system settles, we can feel without being overwhelmed by emotions. We can stay engaged without hardening. We can be stronger than ever without aggression. And we can guide our children from a place of presence rather than fear.

I genuinely believe that sustainable change can only arise when we embody what we want to see. If we want safety for our children, it starts with feeling safe in our own bodies. If we long for a different future, it requires that we are not swept away by hatred, but remain rooted in consciousness.

This is not soft in the sense of weakness. It is soft in the sense of being powerful and aware.

Perhaps this is the quietest form of revolution: not shouting louder, but embodying more deeply. Returning to who we truly are.

And what we are in essence…is love. 💕🍀
