24.01.2022 At birth we board the train and meet our parents , and we believe they will always travel by our side . As time goes by , other people will board the train , an...d they will be significant , i.e. our siblings , friends , children , and even the love of our life . However , at some station our parents will step down from the train , leaving us on the journey alone . Others will step down over time and leave a permanent vacuum . Some however , will go so unnoticed that we don't realise they've vacated their seats . The train ride will be full of joy , sorrow , fantasy , expectations , hellos , goodbyes and farewells . Success consists of having a good relationship with all passengers , requiring that we give the best of ourselves . The mystery to everyone is , we do not know at which station we , ourselves , will step down .. So we must live in the best way , love , forgive and offer the best of who we are . It is important to do this because when the time comes for us to step down and leave our seat empty we should leave behind beautiful memories for those who will continue to travel on the train of life . I wish you all a joyful journey .. Jean D'Ormesson Image by Bojan Marinkowski

20.01.2022 Children often express what’s unresolved between the parents or behind the parents. They can also mirror to us what we felt at their age but have long ago suppressed.

05.01.2022 LM This. Hits. Hard. The inability to receive support from others is a trauma response.... Your I don’t need anyone, I’ll just do it all myself conditioning is a survival tactic. And you needed it to shield your heart from abuse, neglect, betrayal, and disappointment from those who could not or would not be there for you. From the parent who was absent and abandoned you by choice or the parent who was never home from working three jobs to feed and house you. From the lovers who offered sexual intimacy but never offered a safe haven that honored your heart. From the friendships and family who ALWAYS took more than they ever gave. From all the situations when someone told you we’re in this together or I got you then abandoned you, leaving you to pick up the pieces when shit got real, leaving you to handle your part and their part, too. From all the lies and all the betrayals. You learned along the way that you just couldn’t really trust people. Or that you could trust people, but only up to a certain point. Extreme-independence IS. A. TRUST. ISSUE. You learnt: if I don’t put myself in a situation where I rely on someone, I won’t have to be disappointed when they don’t show up for me, or when they drop the ball... because they will ALWAYS drop the ball EVENTUALLY right? You may even have been intentionally taught this protection strategy by generations of hurt ancestors who came before you. Extreme-independence is a preemptive strike against heartbreak. So, you don’t trust anyone. And you don’t trust yourself, either, to choose people. To trust is to hope, to trust is to be vulnerable. Never again, you vow. But no matter how you dress it up and display it proudly to make it seem like this level of independence is what you always wanted to be, in truth it’s your wounded, scarred, broken heart behind a protective brick wall. Impenetrable. Nothing gets in. No hurt gets in. But no love gets in either. Fortresses and armor are for those in battle, or who believe the battle is coming. It’s a trauma response. The good news is trauma that is acknowledged is trauma that can be healed. You are worthy of having support. You are worthy of having true partnership. You are worthy of love. You are worthy of having your heart held. You are worthy to be adored. You are worthy to be cherished. You are worthy to have someone say, You rest. I got this. And actually deliver on that promise. You are worthy to receive. You are worthy to receive. You are worthy. You don’t have to earn it. You don’t have to prove it. You don’t have to bargain for it. You don’t have to beg for it. You are worthy. Worthy. Simply because you exist. -Jamila White, @inspiredjamila

05.01.2022 When you are at the your lowest point, you are open to the greatest change. Strength doesn't come from what you can do, it comes from overcoming the things you thought you couldn't do.

03.01.2022 Being calm is one of the most misunderstood parts of regulation. Being calm is not the point- learning how to stay mindfully connected to ourselves in the mi...dst of the internal activation we experience is the the goal of learning how to regulate. When we put more value on being calm, we not only send a message that the other emotional states inside us are not as good setting ourselves up to feel guilt and shame when they arise or when being calm is a struggle, but we also set the stage to inadvertently bypass the most important part of the regulation experience- Learning how to mindfully be with all aspects of our human experience.
