The following is an advisory for some of our tracks and videos, which cover sensitive topics such as child abuse, kidnap trauma, dissociation, evil and hearing voices. We understand that some of our audience may find these topics triggering or disturbing, and we respect their feelings and choices. We do not intend to harm or offend anyone with our art, but rather to express our own experiences and perspectives.
If you are triggered by our art, we suggest that you take some time to calm yourself and seek support from someone you trust. You may also want to explore some resources that can help you cope with your emotions and heal from your trauma.

These are just some of the resources that you can use to help yourself when you are feeling triggered or overwhelmed by trauma. Remember that you are not alone, and that there is hope and healing possible for you.
Another good resource is self-transcendence.org, a website that offers information and guidance on how to transcend and transform our broken self, and in the process, connect with something greater than the self.
Self-transcendence is a personality trait that involves the expansion or evaporation of personal boundaries. It may potentially include spiritual experiences, such as considering oneself an integral part of the universe. Self-transcendence can help you expand your awareness of your inner state, values and dreams, relate to others and your environment in a more positive way, and integrate your sense of past and future.
We hope that our art can inspire you to reflect on your own experiences and perspectives, and that you can find meaning and purpose in your life. Thank you for listening and watching.
