Elevation of the Self
Many people, especially African Americans, live with some form of PTSD. Not only is it endemic of generational trauma, but it is completely ignored by mainstream healthcare and media. And as a culture, we do not grant ourselves the space within to acknowledge, accept, and heal.
At Yaah! we believe that elevating our frequency also means giving each other grace and the space for transformation and healing. Explore articles and videos that center on the elevation of self as we learn to handle each other and ourselves with care.
