Healing From Trauma
"Trauma creates change you didn't choose. Healing is about creating change you do choose." If you've experience trauma, it can be easy to feel like the damage is permanent, and while it can shape who you become, you can choose to grow from it or let it destroy you.\xa0
In today's episode I discuss:
- The 4 different kinds of trauma, causes and symptoms
- Deciding that you're ready to heal and taking responsibility and initiative for your healing
- Feeling your feelings and knowing whatever you feel is valid, then moving past those negative feelings
- Practicing self-love and self-care along your healing journey because it will be difficult
- Finding a support system and community you can lean on during your healing journey
Healing is not linear, and it doesn't happen overnight. It can take years to heal, I've been in therapy for 3 years and I still have hard days, but that's okay. I want to encourage you to begin your healing journey because you are worthy of love, and you deserve to be happy. It will be okay.\xa0
