Some New Years resolution seedlings. Sounds easy. The trick is not trying to be somebody else. (Ditch the influencers.)

We might want to start doing this emotional workout now, before the holidays really start.

The bigger the act, the more Graceful I can be, the more healed I begin to feel. It's like having proof I'm getting better.

That is just one of the illusions created by abuse. The notion that somehow because something bad happened to us and since we weren't protected, that we must not be as valuable as those that don’t experience serious adversity.

Having people around that instill doubt will make motivating ourselves more difficult. Having motivators? A blessing!
FIND SOME!!!

The most common factors limiting our ability to do this are; bitterness, resentment and our longing for a type of justice that rarely manifests. #healing #healing #neglected #neglect #traumahealing #abusehealing

Perhaps the most exaggerated, overused and misused term in modern society is the word Narcissist. Everyone that does us wrong or hurts is not one.

One day I just realized that I wanted to be FREE! That I was tired of letting people live rent free in my head. So I let it all go!!!And guess what? I started feeling different, GOOD DIFFERENT!!!

Sad but true!! I'm sorry you had to go through that, but you did just that, you got through it!!! That's because you are stronger than most people can ever imagine having to be.

Healing and growth has more aspects than we think. Our anger and unhappiness do to!

Sometimes this is as simple as speaking the truth or just saying no. Other times is as hard ending relationships and careers.

Sometimes this is as simple as speaking the truth or just saying no. Other times is as hard ending relationships and careers. Our past, our desire to be generous and even our desire to love has often forced us to remain with people and in places that were in conflict with our true selves. THAT ENDS NOW!!!! #TrueSelf #truth #boundaries #healing #healingjourney #traumarecovery #abuserecovery #neglected #abandoned neglecteddamagedgraced.com

I really wish that this worked; I just haven’t seen it happen. Our best bet is to let go of the possibility that they’ll ever show up to meet our needs. #emotionalintelligence #emotionalhealing

I wish you had been treated better; I wish we all had. I could talk about this subject for hours; I think I do in the book. That's the neglect part. I spent 3 years writing it, not to make money but to help people. #neglect #neglected #abusesurvivor #traumasurvivor #healingjourney #bettertogether

We know what happens to hearts in the physical world if our stress becomes calcified. We get heart disease. When the rigidity becomes too much, we die. #taoteching

When emotional scars surface, it hurts. When the pain leaks out, everyone feels it. The therapeutic communities can help but they obviously can't stop it. THAT'S UP TO US. #publicsafety #emotionaldamage #trauma #AbusePrevention #abusesurvivor

Please share!
You can start today by writing yourself a message and placing it on your bathroom mirror. I AM BETTER THAN HOW I FEEL. or I AM EVOLVING INTO MY REAL SELF. or I AM WORTHY AND I DESERVE GOOD THINGS.

Every time we acknowledge our own growth we allow ourselves to believe in the hope of change. Every time we do it, we heal a little bit more.
Namaste!

Inspired by the video I posted earlier. It's amazing how real that fake love felt. I don't think that it could have happened without the emotional stains from what I survived.

This usually requires a level of insight we don’t naturally have. It requires some form of intervention, be it spiritual or clinical. It requires us to go back into the past and redefine our experiences with adult insight and maturity.

It's OK to try to be closer to people. You already survived the hard losses.

Tell them, show them, hear them,,,,,,
But don't subject yourself to people who can't reciprocate love and compassion.

Our wounds are not our identity. They are merely proof we survived.
