#003 Sitting with your feelings- Sitting still while your world is crashing is hard. It is painful and overwhelming but so so necessary to heal. We are taught to keep going, to SOLDIER ON. But this pain is unlike most pains. Your grief is yours and it is real. You are grieving for not just your loss on that day but the loss of all the days that you will never have.
We can not live in a world with trigger warnings and being constantly on edge is exhausting. Sitting still and surrendering to the emotions even the ones you thought you had dealt with is confronting but trauma takes work to heal. Changing your thinking to see that this time is necessary because being stuck here, carrying this load forever, is unsustainable.
In learning to sit with these feelings we honour them and allow them to pass without repressing them or shutting them down. We can not avoid this loss for it is everywhere. It is part of us and although they are not here with us they still live on inside of us. In sitting with these feelings other traumas present, honouring them as well helps you to be in the world with those that so desperately need you.
Miscarriage is a pain like no other because you lose part of yourself, you lose an innocent to the darkness. You see yourself in true light and that can be scary. This episode is raw and hard to do emotionally. Welcome to episode three Sitting with your feelings. Come with me as I navigate the journey of stillness and surrender.
