Abuse, Divorce, Loss, this Pandemic; Trauma comes in many shapes. 

You may still be figuring out all the ways trauma has left its mark. Trauma may have impacted your ability to build healthy relationships. The memory of your past trauma may still haunt your present day. 

The common denominator in all this is YOU. 

Our offering, in this podcast, is a look at how you can help you.

Josh and Kit dive into the topic of Self-Kindness and Attachment Repair. Being kind to yourself plays a significant role in how you heal - heart, mind and body.  

You’ll hear how important it is for you to pay attention to your emotions and how to lean into them with God. You feel emotions in your body. And, you have a God who knows what a hurting heart, a stabbing headache and that pit in your stomach feels like - you have Jesus. 

We’ve provided a list of valuable resources below. Also, look in the “Homework” section and consider printing out or writing out the Affirmations on note cards and placing them around your home. 

You are powerful. Right now, your power rests in being kind to you. 

Listen in.

Highlights:

The concept of Self-Compassion is a vital part of healing.

There are physiological, emotional and spiritual things that happen as we learn to be self-compassionate in our places of wounding.

Taking care of yourself is not selfish. When you take care of yourself and receive the love that God has for you, you become a person who cares and loves better.
