Insight

I am enough. I did enough. I can let go.

Last night was particularly effective. I was able to clear a tension found in multiple parts of my body, all linking to my nervous system reading, oddly enough, my children’s needs and disobedience as threats. Childhood trauma does some strange things. Plus recent trauma doesn’t help. It’s their job to need. And even when it’s hard, it’s my job to love, provide, and get through this season if that’s where I am at in my nervous system capacity.

When choosing how I show up, I picked empower, guide, and support. I felt much more capable of handling their difficulty in getting to sleep. In fact, I ended up falling asleep before finishing this post.

The relief and genuine tiredness from naming, processing, and rewiring these things is a beautiful outcome. And I continue to be grateful for this practice. Interested to see what today’s practice will bring.

Day 8
