Stop dwelling on the past and start focusing on healing with this helpful podcast.
Dealing with trauma and depression can be a challenging and overwhelming experience. Because I keep talking about mine, I recently had a nightmare!
One common aspect of this struggle is the tendency to dwell on past events, which can hinder the healing process. In this episode, I will remind you why it is so important to shift your focus towards healing and moving forward.

It's like your mind plays tricks on you, and you remember the hopeful anticipation of a good memory, not the actual memory of you being there. It might have been boring, it might have been a lot of conflict. It might have been a discard location. But when you receive the narcissist back, it's this moment of, oh, now this time it'll be like what I hoped it would be like the first time.
This is the tricky part of what your brain does. And so then it didn't go well,
and in this dream it was like reliving the pattern of abuse all over again. And I woke up and I was like, oh my gosh. Too much. Too much. I just have to focus in on nurturing myself. What lights me up, what makes me happy, and then is just focusing on the here and now and not the rear view mirror. This podcast is for awareness, but sometimes I do feel like it doesn't allow me to focus.
On the healing that I need to do, the work that I need to do now, which is my husband's bloodline, my children. So that's what I'm gonna be focusing on as already I've stated that I've taken a break from the interviews. So we'll be focusing more on how we can move forward, how we can heal, and less about the rear view mirror.
Less about all of the, the patterns that we know, the red flags, the the signs. We know all these, right? This is what's causing us pain and we don't wanna keep revisiting them. Focusing on what lights you up? What lights you up during this cancer season? Maybe it's redecorating a room. Maybe it's gardening something in your garden.
Maybe it's walking, getting a new exercise routine. Taking more baths with Epsom salt, getting a dog, getting a cat, uh, uh, doing yoga. I'm gonna start back up in a yoga class, you know, like getting yourself out into crowds again, maybe meetups or, you know, connecting and networking with new people in your life to regain some socialization and trust back whatever it is for you.
I encourage this. For you dear empath, that you focus on what lights you up and stop looking in the rear of your mirror so that you don't have to experience nightmares like I did. Right? Our subconscious is always replaying about what we're thinking about.
I encourage you to take your break from. Looking at the past, ruminating on what was, what they were doing now that they've seen shown you the signs. , as in a coaching session that this new information you receive, right? So your brain's processing, which is perfectly normal, but how can you.
Stop ruminating on it. I know maybe that's journaling and burning it. Every single time you feel like you're ruminating and getting mad, surrender that to the universe to some higher being. Transmute it through the fire and let it go and focus on what really makes you happy. Like what makes your inner child happy.
Maybe that's going to Disneyland. You never know. Or the beach or something fun doing a puzzle. Just do it right. Just surrender this. Need to be responsible or be an adult and release that through your journal exercise, and then have fun, nurture that part of you that maybe needs a bit of reparenting, a bit of nurturing while you release all of this ruminating and frustration and anger and sadness.
So carry on and continue to lean in and enjoy cancer season. And this is my quick note to you, signing off during cancer season. Uh, heading out to take a walk myself out in the sun with my kiddos and the dog.

And remember, always keep your unique light shining.
Losing Timeing fast. I just wanna make it last. Try to let go of the past. Close my eyes. Embrace sleepless nights and headache restlessness to hell and bath. What's my purpose? But do I grab a slippery surface? A heart attack? And sometimes you just gotta believe there's something. There's something that'll you what you what broken.
It's tragic. We're not all elastic, but maybe there's magic. Believe you could have it.
