We carry trauma in our bodies.
That wounding can take the form of excess weight, illness, pain, mental illness or disease.
In the first pic I was carrying childhood trauma, birth trauma, pregnancy loss, the agonising pain of Endometriosis plus loss of identity.
I was a people pleaser, lacking boundaries.
I wanted to fix everything, help others and avoid my own stuff in the process.
I had imposter syndrome accompanied by high levels of procrastination, self doubt and hypervigilence... (getting tired thinking about it).🥱
I was an over-achiever, over-giving and over-delivering to everyone but myself.
I was ultimately abandoning myself, time and time again.
Once I took a dive into my unconscious inner world, which really isn't as scary as it sounds.
I was able to see things differently.
See where things were working against me.
Even though I had originally percieved these beliefs and patterns as things to keep me safe, thanks to ego (that is his job).
In the "after" pic I have become better at: ✨️Upholding boundaries
✨️Managing stress
✨️Understanding my triggers, my past stories and programming through developing self-awareness
✨️I have also been free of the excruciating pain and plethora of symptoms associated with Endometriosis for 4 years!✨️
✨️Enhanced my body and mind connection
✨️Recognised how capable I am
✨️Taken a step back when needed
✨️Increased my intuition and emotional well-being
✨️Rested
✨️Asked for support when required
✨️Plus broken generational patterns.
This is reflected in my body.
I was able to reset and regulate my nervous system, to feel safe.
To maintain that by using tools ongoing, so that it became part of my daily practice.
I was able to unlearn old beliefs and re-learn new ones that were supportive, so that I could create better conditions for myself.
This created the right environment for healing and letting go of past stories and their wounding.
There are no quick fixes when it comes to true Transformation, but it is absolutely worth it. 🫶
