PANDEMIC: FEWER DISTRACTIONS FROM WHAT IS GOING ON INSIDE OF YOU

When we slow down as all of us have had to during this Pandemic then you may be experiencing that so much of the pain that you have stuffed your whole life and the “avoidance strategies “ both conscious and unconscious do not work the same. as they did before . Now your pain is finally coming to the surface. and you are finding it more difficult to run and hide from you. That is actually a wonderful thing though it does not feel like that. Now you are becoming more aware of what is going on inside of you rather than focusing on the outside circumstances and distractions. Yes you can seek out new distractions and continue to stuff your emotions and pain or make the wise choice to use this difficult time as an opportunity to begin the process of healing.. Actually in times like this when pressure builds then just like when you squeeze a lemon whatever is inside will come out: You can now begin to become more self aware and compassionate as you give your inner world the attention you so need!!see “Three Ways That Removing Distractions Can Help Relationships”

HOW THE PANDEMIC IS REVEALING PAST TRAUMA(AS 911 DID)

When 911 happened I was directly effected as I live and work very close to the World Trade Center. Most of my patients were also directly effected as well. During the time of my clients working through their traumatic experience related to 911 many painful memories and sensations in their bodies as well as pain in their bodies began to surface and only then were they able to remember and to address the effect of past traumas.( related to childhood trauma and insecure attachment as well sexual abuse, neglect and emotional abuse, abandonment). See “Keys To Feeling Safe in Your Body” I was given the opportunity through that very difficult critical time to gain a much deeper understanding of trauma and reinjury from trauma(multiple traumas) and to walk this courageous life affirming journey beside them and healing began to take place on a very deep level. I am now seeing a very similar pattern develop with my present clients as they are also trauma survivors that this pandemic has reinjured them and has been a springboard for them to courageously address their pain from the past and how that effects of that pain so they can move forward in the healing process
