Episode 8: The Domino Affect of Family Estrangement
On this week's solo episode I delve into the Topic of the Domino Affect and Family Estrangement
What is a domino affect?
A domino affect is the accumulation of effects that have been produced as a result of one event which then sets off a chain of similar events.
Many people who have gone through Family estrangement have certainly experienced the domino affect or the chain reaction that came as result of family estrangement.
Although this might seem obvious, if an adult child becomes estranged from his or her parents and there are grandchildren involved, it will mean that the grandparents will not get to see their grandchildren and similarly, the children the children will not get to see their grandparents.
Long term consequences could potentially manifest as 'family cut-off' can become the family pattern and thus; becoming an intergenerational pattern.
We know family patterns can become difficult to break, with that said, sometimes, all it takes is one person to change this trajectory. Often, learning some of the mechanism behind family estrangement can potentially stop this cycle.
How can you use the Domino affect to your advantage after family estrangement. Can you create a chain of positive reactions in your life?
Our behaviours are usually tied to one another. In other word, our behaviours are interconnected, so when an individual goes through family estrangement, it can set off a chain of reactions, causing a shift in behaviours and personal beliefs about yourself and others.
Imagine for a minute that you’re able to capitalise on positive domino affect by merging it together with the behaviours of commitment and consistency - In other word make a commitment to heal from this trauma of estrangement and learn about the mechanisms behind it, also learn and invest in you (emotionally, psychologically and spiritually) . When we feel wholesome, we see wholesome in others. We see love and possibly, instead of limitations and our hearts become open.
I wholeheartedly believe it is your birth right to feel this way. 💛
