Description
Have you ever stood in the shadow of your own unmet potential, feeling the weight of the person you might have been if ltrauma hadn't left its mark? This is a reality many face, and in our latest podcast episode, we journey into the process of grieving what trauma stole from us as a way to journey into deeper healing. Together, we confront the raw emotions of anger and rage that emerge from the unnamed sorrow we carry. We look at practical writing exercises that can be powerful tools for recovery. We will examine how to craft letters that articulate the deep-seated grief of what we might have become without the trauma we experienced. We also celebrate who we are today and learn how to see the beautiful qualities about who you are now. Yes trauma stole so much from so many of us and we need to grieve that. And as we grieve we can also learn to see, fully love, and accept who we are now. And it is from that place that we can start walking into the all the beauty right now in this present moment. 0:00 - Introduction: The Impact of Unresolved Grief0:59 - The Concept of Grieving Potential Selves3:55 - Healthy Grieving vs. Staying Stuck in the Past4:39 - Understanding and Initiating the Grieving Process5:36 - The Dual Nature of Grief: What Wasn't Given and What Was Taken6:26 - Exploring the Five Stages of Grief Related to Lost Potential7:57 - Practical Steps to Grieve Who You Might Have Become8:51 - Exercise: Writing a Letter to Your Future Self10:12 - Exercise: Writing a Letter to Your Present Self12:02 - Moving Towards Acceptance and Letting Go13:28 - Celebrating the Person You Are Today14:20 - Final Exercise: Recognizing Your Current Strengths and QualitiesYou are worthy of your own love,JerryMy New Book:Returning: Meditations and Reflections on Self-Love and HealingTransformational Coaching:Learn More Here!Support the Show:My Patreon PageHow is your relationship with yourself going?Get your free-self assessment guideWatch On YoutubeWebsite:www.jerryhenderson.orgSupport the Show:My Patreon PageTrouble Sleeping?Sleep ResetGet Your Free Weekly Healing Tips!Free Guided Self-Love Meditation:Get it Here!Website:www.jerryhenderson.orgInstagram: ...
