I want to share something with you all.
A realisation so painful that I didn't want to accept it.
These last few days, I have been DEEP in emotional release.
The weeks prior I had burnt myself out..again..for the millionth time.
I had been playing out my own trauma loop of "I have to do this ALL on my own without support."
" I have to take care of everything because I can not rely on others to help or really have my back."
This was my trauma loop but let me be clear..this is NOT a pity party.
This loop was my subconscious survival instincts playing out.
As such I didn't realise how ATTACHED I had become to the pain of this concept.
My partner n I had an argument about it..again.
I was blaming. He said to me "You need to let go of your control of things and TRUST me with things too."
I lost my self to the pain of that comment, but he was right.
I didn't trust him to do things, I had just become caught up in my trauma response of "Doing".
Granted he played his role too, he hadn't seen or felt into where I needed support so he could nudge me open.
I went to a dark place inside myself.
I was wondering why this was emerging, why now?
I had just done some deep healing around worthiness to receive.
Oh..right..I got it, I was letting go of my old narrative and everything associated with it was playing out to heal.
I thought I had reached the end of my relationship, that was the old pattern. .I grow and they drop away.
Not this time, no this time it was my trauma voice that was wrong.
Reality was different but I had to fully surrender to the concept of loss before I could let go long enough to allow my dreams to be recieved.
Sometimes it's the letting go of the trauma patterns and the preconceived ideas around one's experience that allows everything you want, deserve and need to manifest.
I didn't realise that I was holding onto the ideas that had kept me safe at one point so tightly that they were now forming the cage I so desperately wanted to be free from.
We all can build cages of our own device, driven by the need for safety.
My question is "when does our safety become our cage and is not longer our Sanctuary?"
Each of us has had some form of this..I am sending love to that part of you.
I see you, feel you and deeply know you.
There is hope, there is freedom.
There is also help available, don't be afraid to reach out ❤️
