The intertwining between love and fear that began when we had no defenses to protect ourselves needs time and attention to heal. As we connect the dots and give and receive the attention and care we need: we are beginning the healing process to move into freedom and come out of bondage!

CHILDHOOD EMOTIONAL NEGLECT IS THE ROOT OF ...

When we are emotionally neglected as children our nervous system does the best it can to go into survival mode in an atttempt to protect us ... Since we are completely dependent and vulnerable and unable to “fight or flee” so we go into“freeze” response where we are numb and emotionally shut down in an attempt to not feel our fear and our pain. When no one hears or listens to our “cry” we lose hope as our emotional needs are not noticed or given attention and we feel like we do not exist..Over time our “little child” part gets more frozen and “stuck” and has difficulty moving forward and begins to internalize the emotional neglect and we as adults then begin to neglect ourselves emotionally and due to lack of hope and feelings of helplessness develop a pattern of procrastination and the root is “childhood emotional neglect”.

HOW TO IDENTIFY EMOTIONAL NEEDINESS

When we were the most vulnerable and dependent and “emotionally needy(”as we all have been as children )it can feel like a cry deep in our soul when no one hears or seems to care about us. Our mind, will and emotions are what define our soul. For many of us who have been “ traumatically wounded” in childhood: the message we received was that we will not have our emotional reality nurtured or have anyone who can help us to process our emotions in a” healthy” way. You may be becoming more and more aware and of the consequences that are affecting your self-esteem and your relationships as the“little boy or girl part” got stuck in a pattern of “emotional neediness” that needs to be healed so you can move on with hope and start to. understand what is going on inside of you emotionally physically: and spiritually. You may have stuffed your emotions and are now becoming more aware of the consequences related to your childhood trauma.

SIGNS YOU ARE NEGLECTING YOURSELF

SIGNS YOU ARE NEGLECTING YOURSELF

One of the most essential areas for you to not neglect yourself in: is giving attention to your emotional and mental health….in other words giving attention to your unhealed trauma wounds. You may not even be fully conscious that you have developed a pattern of “neglecting yourself” as you very likely are taking care of the “outside” and yet neglecting what is going on inside of you. We live from the inside out so when you neglect your inner world there are many consequences both inside and out..Our mind and our bodies work together and there are physical symptoms when emotions and memories get stuck in our bodies. The wonderful thing is that you can now choose to walk through an open door so you can heal and no longer avoid and move forward!

KEYS TO STOP ALLOWING FEAR TO BE YOUR PROPHET

Healing can only take place when we are calm. Fearful thoughts block the healing process and nurture feelings of anxiety as you most likely can notice by now.. It is like eating toxic food that cannot nourish you in any way but actually hurts you and makes you feel sick.. What you think and what you say make a great difference to your overall mental health and state of mind. So what are you feasting these on days is my question to you: is it gloom and doom, toxic relationships, catastrophizing, making mountains out of molehills, bad news reports online and on TV? Are you murmuring and complaining and wondering why you feel so alone and disconnected from yourself and others? Help and hope are on the way so do not give up!

ADULT WOUNDS OF CHILDHOOD SEXUAL ABUSE

ADULT WOUNDS OF CHILDHOOD SEXUAL ABUSE

Childhood sexual abuse creates a deep wound in the soul. As a child you are vulnerable and dependent on adults that are supposed to be there to love and protect you but have failed you. Most childhood sexual abuse happens in families and the perpetrator is often someone you trusted and yet they were not worthy of your trust. And though there were many signs when you were being abused that “something was wrong” no one even noticed. Not being noticed caused even more confusion and pain about your own value as no one heard your “cry” but that “cry” is still inside although muffled over time.

SIGNS THAT YOU DO NOT VALUE "YOU"

SIGNS THAT YOU DO NOT VALUE "YOU"

What does it mean to “honor” yoursel.f? It does not mean to be self absorbed or critical

But to courageously get to know who you are and develop a deep respect and

compassion for yourself:as well as a “voice” rather than stuffing what really matters

to you. As a trauma survivor you have been “dishonored” and now is time to

take back what was stolen and begin the healing process!

RESCUING A PET CAN RESCUE YOU

RESCUING A PET CAN RESCUE YOU

There are so many benefits when we open our hearts to loving and caring for a pet. This is especially true if you are a trauma survivor and have been wounded by people you trusted..One of the deepest wounds for trauma survivors is that your capacity to trust has been ruptured and now it is difficult and painful to trust people and difficult to trust yourself.. Opening your heart and your home to a new “family member with 4 legs” can be a big part of the healing process! You rescue and you will be rescued!

HOW TO IDENTIFY YOUR TRAUMA TRIGGERS

HOW TO IDENTIFY YOUR TRAUMA TRIGGERS

A trauma trigger is anything that consciously or unconsciously brings back the memory of your trauma. It is a trauma reminder. When we go through having experienced trauma it takes time and attention to process how we are feeling and how what happened to us has affected us.. When we are overloaded with traumatic stress we go into the fright/flight or freeze response which is our bodies way of protecting us. However, if you do not receive the support and help,attention that is needed then these responses can get stuck in these trauma responses which will block your healing .Trauma triggers are a wake up call to show you where you are wounded and where you need healing. Therapy can greatly help you to focus on what is needed for that wounded place to heal as in therapy you can become more aware of your unconscious “ trauma triggers” as well as your conscious “trauma triggers” and see your blind spots more clearly as you gain deeper understanding...
