"If you listen to your body when it whispers , you don't have to hear it scream"




I'm sure most of you have heard this before but have you stopped to think of the depth of this message??
That little aching pain which refuses to go away, that little bout of cold, the constant fatigue etc....are all signs from your body that you need to pay attention to something bigger.
Stop pushing away the signs and begin to actually understand your own body's signals.
Make that doctor's appointment/complete that long pending health checkup which you have been postponing with excuses of no time or some other reason.Take the day off ,rest and recover if you need to. This is your body and you need to take care of it. You can't Netflix away your issues or binge eat to cope with stress.
Imagine when you get into your car and the red light flashes indicating some issue in the car engine, would you ignore it and drive away or would you stop to look into the issue and fix it ?
Our body too similarly needs that kind of attention from us .. Fix it before your body starts screaming for your attention!
Did you know that chronic Psychological distress can damage your immune system and make you prone to falling sick often ?
DM me for a session if you would like to navigate your emotions , manage your stress and build a better life for yourself . You don't have to deal with it alone. We are in this together.
A reminder for you :
You are worthy just the way you are and you are ENOUGH 💓😊

Tips for Healing post Toxic relationships and Abuse

-

  As a life coach, the most asked question by my clients who are recovering from abusive relationships is " When will I know that I have completely healed ?". There is no clear answer to this and it depends on each person's emotional resilience and the amount of healing work that you are committed to do. Some may heal and move on in just few weeks or months and some may take even few years and some may never completely heal from the trauma of abuse. Healing is non-linear and there will be days when you feel completely healed -on top of the world and  some days when you regress backwards and fall apart again. Stay with the process and trust that you will heal. Do not give up on yourself ! Abuse changes you as a person and you can't go back to who you were earlier even if you wish to go back. A physical wound heals with time and medication but what about your emotional wounds? The more you suppress it, the stronger the pain becomes and it manifests as physical health is...

How to navigate life with emotionally manipulative and abusive family members

-

 Most of my clients' main issue is how to set boundaries and deal with a toxic family member- a toxic parent, toxic partner, toxic adult child, toxic siblings or toxic in laws. The struggle is real and in South Asian cultures and Indian culture , we are conditioned as a society to put our family first and to ignore red flags and dysfunctional behaviour. We are conditioned to make excuses for a toxic family member's bad behaviour with excuses like " They are your family" or "They have no one else so you can't abandon them" or "They have had a tough life so try to be forgive them and be kind" or" You will regret it when they die" or"Think about your kids" or "Log kya kahenge"? . The excuses are many but you get the idea right?   You can try having a healthy conversation about your needs and emotions with toxic family members- That is a necessary first step. But if it falls on deaf ears and if toxic , manipulative beh...

Narcissistic Abuse - The transformative healing process

-
Image
  Healing from deep seated trauma is very painful , messy and non linear. Once you go through soul changing trauma of narcissistic abuse, you can't just forgive and forget , dust yourself and move on. You can't expect to go back to who you were initially before the abuse happened to you. Trauma changes your brain and you need to work hard to consciously rewire the abuse patterns that are recorded in your body and your mind. But it is possible to heal. Each time a bad memory pops up, you are actually reliving that painful instance and your body doesn't know the difference between the actual event and the fact that you are simply just recalling it in your mind . Your body sends a message to your brain that you are not safe and you go into fight or flight mode. Prolonged exposure to narcissistic abuse can have adverse effects on your physical and mental health.You will feel like your heart is cut into million pieces and you need to figure out how to put yourself back together ...
