Sometimes when we are releasing the past and designing our NOW, there are places we don’t want to go because we are afraid we will be consumed. This is because when that thing happened, it activated our amygdala and the rest of the brain took a snooze while we went into fight or flight. It was all consuming at that time. But when we decide to look at the old stuff, we are consciously CHOOSING to explore and release, we come at it with our observational mind, we are not the same as we were then. We can hold space to acknowledge, let the feelings out, and decide how we want to be NOW. We don’t become the emotion, we look at it, feel it lovingly, and move on. #transformationalcoach #emotionaleatingrecovery #bingeeatingrecovery #love #youarenotyourpast #youarenotyouremotions
