Are you good at pushing things that make you feel shitty under the carpet?
This takes the thing away from our view if the carpet is moved through its back because we have covered it over. How might it be to swap a cover over for an uncomfortable one? You read it right. We need to at times go to uncomfortable places, face the parts of ourselves we dislike, those that lurk in our shadows and release some of the pain we've been carrying. When we cover over the struggle it's like using a plaster to support a wound until we return home and can tend to it properly. I hate to break it to you, but no plaster sticks indefinitely, and no carpet covers forever. I know because I have also been in this place. Personally, if it was too painful and it created tears I wouldn't go there. Our strength comes from managing the wound, tending to it, and creating the right environment that would in turn help it to heal. Covering wounds can be an important step in the healing process. It's a step that doesn't finish here. Why can't we look at all that has been covered over by the carpet, allow ourselves to be vulnerable and face the difficult conversations, improve the almost non-existent relationships and start to grow? This was part of what therapy did for me. It helped me to start peeling back the plasters, looking deeper at the wounds, helping me to understand myself more, the parts of me I dislike, where they come from and how I have a choice around if I continue falling into the invisible traps I always fell. Therapy helped me release emotional blockages and trauma that felt somewhat caged in my body and mind. I was provided a safe and supportive space to process and work through any emotional challenges that arise during the healing process. By addressing both the physical and emotional struggles, balance could be found. Balance in life means finding a happy medium with various aspects of life, such as work, family, social life, and personal time. I own some time I have it sorted other days it takes more effort and energy. Do you want to want to be able to push less ‘sh**y feelings and use fewer plasters in your life? If so, I can help you, I get it - it doesn't have to be this way honestly edit. |
