    Hello Dr. Nichole I tried your journal for 30 days and did not miss a single day, my aim that time was to say No to people without feeling shame guilt or fear, and to set boundaries and maintain them.
    Long story short your journal forum transformed my life, I back then would not imagine in my life that I would be able to say No so easily. However your journal made that possible to me.
    Thank you so so so much

  • @isabelsaavedra7947
    @isabelsaavedra7947 Před 3 lety +5

    I found that I struggle to celebrate victories because as a child I was not encouraged. My caretaker was emotionally absent most of the time so I developed a way to live also disconnected. Now, as a 30 old woman, I am recovering my inner life and recreating the stories of my past from a more compassionate perspective. I definitely want to be there for me, and support me in each step of the process.

    I was so lost when I first started following you and hearing about future self journaling, I didn't know what I should change actually, but I listened to your advice about observing myself and found few patterns came up, they were surprising to me.
    I realized that I'm not as self confident as I think I am, having been overshadowed, bullied any body shamed my whole life still affect me even when I say that it doesn't. I noticed that I shrink in too many situations thinking that I'm so much less than what I really am, and I go back to that bullied little girl again.
    and that's my aim to change now.
    Thank you a lot for your work!

    I loved this lesson. "A conditioned self that acts from the past." I understand this very visually based on my recovery from complex trauma. Painful past learning was always intruding into my present causing me to perceive threat where there was no threat. It was only after I learned how to widen that space between stimulus and response (via relaxation, grounding, self-regulation in the face of a perceived threat) that I was able to leave the habit self and experience growth and freedom.

    Appreciate this video: I carry around alot of emotional baggage every single day. From being exposed to my Dad's porn at an early age, to being made fun of for being fat, and subsquently struggling with addiction for 20 years.....I appreciate video's like this. I'm extremely self aware which leads to being self absorbed.....it's a domino affect. I need to take life one moment at a time, small promises at a time, and just focus on getting through the day. 1 day at a time, appreciate your video.

    Strive to be a little better than you were yesterday. I read this somewhere and it links in with what you are saying here about habits. Doing one thing daily and choosing to be a better version of ones self, striving to be a little better than yesterday in small easy achievable goals.

    Saw the title in my notification earlier and thought of self preservation. A teacher told me cpl yrs ago that while I developed certain behaviors because I had to defend myself, I no longer need to defend myself so I can drop those behaviors. It never left my mind.
    I was just reading a book from Iyanla and there's a passage that I believe goes perfectly with what you're speaking abt here...
    "Our defense is based on the fact that if we let go of what we think we know about ourselves, we won't have anything else to rely on.
    The prospect of losing ourselves, even momentarily, can be pretty frightening. But that's what we have to do: we have to lose false self to find true self.'

      Vicki C's UR BS so sorry you went thru this. If I can make a recommendation, find a good “functional medicine doctor”. Sometimes the trauma of surgery throws the body and emotions out of balance. FMPs are so good at getting to the root. Good luck to you. ❤️
