“Knowledge isn't free. You have to pay attention.” ~ Richard P. Feynman

[Dr. Glenn Patrick Doyle @DrDoyleSays]

Feeling unseen, unwanted, unappreciated, unnecessary, & unloved-- by the people who share our name & DNA, who were supposed to see, want, appreciate, & love us-- is a complex trauma for most humans.

It wasn't a one time thing to "get over." It became our basic life programming.

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

You'd be surprised how much you can heal someone by excitedly listening to their story or their newest interest.

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Loving someone with CPTSD means being compassionate, patient, but also holding them accountable.

You can heal from CPTSD. You can learn to respond in new ways, to protect your energy, and to (safely) release stored trauma from the body.

"A day so happy.
Fog lifted early, I worked in the garden.
Hummingbirds were stopping over honeysuckle flowers.
There was no thing on earth I wanted to possess."

— Czesław Miłosz, "Gift"

[Ramblings @ramblingsloa]

As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom.
I knew if I didn’t leave my bitterness and hatred behind
I’d still be in prison.

"When you surrender to what is and so become fully present, the past ceases to have any power. You do not need it anymore. Presence is the key. The Now is the key."

Ease and clarity
are soulmates.

When you find one,
the other follows
effortlessly. ♥️

Acceptance means: For now, this is what this situation, this moment, requires me to do, and so I do it willingly.

@karenmitchell__ I would love to learn about how to deal with these personalities in the work place if ever you have time, Dr. Mitchell. 🙏💕

[Thoughts Are Seeds @thoughtsRseeds]

May all of our
daily
thoughts
and actions
come from
a place of love.

If you light a lamp for somebody
It will also brighten your path.

[Eckhart Tolle Quotes @EckTOLLEQuotes]

Only Presence can free you of the ego, and you can only be present Now, not yesterday or tomorrow. Only Presence can undo the past in you and thus transform your state of consciousness.

[Eckhart Tolle Quotes @EckTOLLEQuotes]

As soon as you honor the present moment, all unhappiness and struggle dissolve, and life begins to flow with joy and ease.

[Thoughts Are Seeds @thoughtsRseeds]

“Relationships do not cause pain and unhappiness. They bring out the pain and unhappiness that is already in you.”

~Eckhart Tolle

[Ramblings @ramblingsloa]

It's your road, and yours alone.
Others may walk it with you,
But no one can walk it for you.

Rumi
