It's Never Too Late to Seek Help


As long as you're breathing, it's never too late to do some good. ~Maya Angelou

#traumasurvivor of childhood sexual and #domesticabuse can have long-lasting effects on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. For women over 35 who have experienced this type of trauma, it can be difficult to navigate the effects in their daily lives.

However, there is hope. With the right support and #resources, women can learn to #cope with their trauma and move forward.

One important step is seeking help. A #traumahealing coach can help individuals understand and process their trauma, as well as provide #coping mechanisms and strategies for dealing with the effects.

Another helpful resource can be your coach’s #supportgroup. Joining a coach’s support group with others that have gone through similar experiences can provide a sense of #communitysupport and understanding where you can feel secure without #judgment.

Additionally, self-care practices such as exercise, journaling, and #mindfulnessmeditation can also be beneficial in managing the effects of your trauma.

It is important for women to understand that healing from #childhoodtrauma takes time, but with the right resources and support, it is possible to live a fulfilling and happy life. It is never too late to seek help and start on the path to healing.

It's also important to remember that healing is an #ongoing process and it's important to be gentle with yourself. It is not a sign of weakness to ask for help and seek support. You deserve to live a fulfilling and happy life, and with the right resources and support, you can.

There are many #paths to personal healing, and what works for one person may not work for another. That being said, here are five possible paths to consider: 1.      Therapy or counseling: Working with a mental health professional can be a helpful way to address and work through personal issues.

5 Action Steps to Release Personal Guilt and Shame

Image
We, human beings, find ourselves from time to time dealing with the emotions of guilt and shame. We feel guilt and hopefully remorse when we have caused another person pain by our behavior.  Shame results when we carry the guilt without resolving it or making effect to correct what we did wrong. We simply sink into feeling bad like there will never be another sunrise. This can lead to depression. Five best practices can help us resolve our guilt and shame.

  Reasons Why Women Hesitate to Seek Help to Heal from Childhood Trauma Thousands of women have sought me out over the past 30 years to share with me their experience of childhood sexual and domestic trauma. Some have approached me in person after meeting me in places I was speaking. Others have reached out to me from reading articles and books I have published. Others still have reached out to me since the advent of social media. Some women sought me out because they had learned from other women I had been helpful to them in their healing and post healing personal development.

Women that sought me out had heard that I was teaching that childhood traumas begin to heal the moment you commit to transform your life and the energy of your painful past into the power to love. When you can internalize and feel the possibilities of that comment, you are ready to walk a new path,...
