That thing you don’t want to feel…

feel it.

the thing that you don’t want to feel.

feel it. and be free.

My favourite therapist says there is much to be gained from facing and feeling what we don’t want to feel... In fact, the quality of our present and future relationships may depend on it. What I’ve learned is that most of us are lugging around a lot of old stuff (because we’re too young to deal with heavy stuff in our formative years) and a lack of resolution from our childhood. It’s not fun or easy work, but it’s certainly possible to go back and pick up some pieces. I’ve actually done my best healing since my Dad died 24 years ago. I’ve noticed that the more I settle the past, the greater my capacity for my current relationships. Just sayin’ :) Hugs. XO
