Permission to Be Yourself

Permission to Be Yourself

We live in a world of programs. Our society is steeped in various programs that tell us who we should be. Our families all have their programs, mostly passed down from both sides of the ancestral lineage. Schools have their programs. We have programs in our peer groups. But all those programs we grow up with tell us who we should be rather than ask the all-important question “who are you?”

The Magic of Soul Alignment

The Magic of Soul Alignment

The term magical thinking suggested that we delude ourselves with our belief that we can bring about a magical resolution or outcome to a situation in our life. However the magic of soul alignment is a different story. 

When People Blame You

When People Blame You

Most dysfunctional family systems cast at least one of the family members into the role of the scapegoat.  The scapegoats are usually the most sensitive ones.  When people blame you, you may find that you are a scapegoat.

The Brightest Light Casts the Darkest Shadow

The Brightest Light Casts the Darkest Shadow

As we do our inner work, our shadow work, we look at all those things within us that are not loving.  We look at our fear, which is the opposite of love.  We look at our hatred, which is a resistance to love.  We look at our envy, our jealousy, our resentments, and our deep pain.  All of these keep us from embodying the higher vibrations of love. 

My Slow Suicide and Why I Chose to Live

My Slow Suicide and Why I Chose to Live

For some of us, out greatest challenges begin early in life as we struggle with how to live in the world.  Teenage suicide is at a record high with the increase in bullying, cyber bullying, and the expectations to fit into a societal “norm.”  Anorexia Nervosa, a disease that effects a lot of young women is a type of slow suicide where one wastes away to skin and bones.  If not treated it will result in death by starvation or complications of the disease.  As a teenager I suffered from Anorexia which resulted in a near death experience, where I was given a choice.  I would like to talk about my slow suicide and why I chose to live.

Healing Your Narcissistic Abuse Story

Healing Your Narcissistic Abuse Story

Most people coming out of a Narcissistically Abusive situation are suffering from Trauma.  They have PTSD of the complex variety.  One of the symptoms of PTSD is the spinning of stories.  Telling one’s story over and over again can initially help with processing the trauma.  But there comes a point where it actually has the reverse effect.  It keeps one stuck in the trauma. Healing your Narcissistic Abuse Story is an important part of recovery.

Love is the highest power on earth.  It’s what makes the world go round.  It is the greatest healer!  It is what brings us together.  But sometimes it feels like love is what tears us apart.   What do we do when love hurts? What do we do when we find ourselves hurting like we have […]

Toxic Relationships and Autoimmune Disorders

Toxic Relationships and Autoimmune Disorders

In my work in the field of narcissistic abuse I have noticed the link between toxic relationships and autoimmune disorders. It is a link well worth exploring, especially if you are suffering from an autoimmune disorder. The more I research healing on both an emotional and physical level, the more I see the connection between the two. Although I am a big believer that diet is important and the healthier our diet, the healthier our body, there is also an emotional component to consider.
