We all live with abandonment wounds. Often they stem from the way our parents or caregivers treated us. But later in life they show up in relationships, where we feel rejected or betrayed.
These feelings might not stem from big, traumatic events – sometimes they develop from subtle, ongoing dynamics where we don't feel safe to be ourselves.
Understanding when our abandonment wounds are showing up means we can deal with them more effectively. In this episode, Lorin offers practical ways to heal, focusing on self-awareness and emotional regulation.
We start by becoming aware of how we react to those feelings of rejection when they come up. We then need to practice self-compassion and patience.
Exposed or unaddressed abandonment wounds can lead to strained relationships and constant anxiety. We can find ourselves stuck in a cycle of fear and mistrust, unable to build healthy connections. But, by observing our reactions in relationships, and noticing when feelings of abandonment surface, we can take those first steps toward healing.
