I was led by the herd to talk a little about how we can choose how we remember events in our lives, how we feel about them, and if what we feel about them doesn’t support us, then how we can choose to remember them differently.
Doing this takes acceptance, patience and courage. It takes acknowledgement of the truth of a situation. It means letting go of judgement. It means forgiving self.
First, know you have a choice.
“The paradox of trauma is that it has both the power to destroy and the power to transform and resurrect.”
― Peter A. Levine, (In an Unspoken Voice: How the Body Releases Trauma and Restores Goodness)
