Detaching With Love

In my journey there have been many hard lessons.  Many lessons I never wanted to learn.  Many things I've never wanted to face.  Betrayal Trauma is one of those things I never knew existed.  But when I read about it I feel like someone has had a hidden camera inside my mind and heart.  

Navigating Betrayal Trauma has been hard for me.  My emotions will be all over the place.  I doubt myself to make decisions.  I doubt that I will ever feel love again.  I don't believe that healing can ever happen.  Then it seems the pendulum swings far the other way and I do feel hope.  I do have faith.  I do believe that healing will happen.  

In the messy, mixed up parts of this swinging pendulum I have had to learn how to process my feelings.  Which ones to let pass and which ones to hold on to.  

One technique that I am learning more about is Detaching With Love.  I've heard that phrase countless times in support groups, books and counseling.  I don't have it down yet, but I have found a resource that is helpful:





I haven't found a magic wand to make it all go away yet.  So as I continue down the path of healing and recovery I watch for things that really make a difference.  The wisdom from this site did for me.  I hope it can help you too as you click on that link above and access Heavenly help from above too.

We can do this!
