True-Self: Can Childhood Trauma Cause Someone To Believe That They Will Die If They Reveal Their True-Self?

What someone could find, that’s if they were able to take a step back and to reflect on their life, is that they are typically out of touch with most of their needs and feelings. Thus, instead of paying attention to what is taking place within them and allowing this information to play a big part in how they live their life, they will look towards others.

Child Abuse: Did Your Parents Make Out That You Were Perfect?

If someone was asked to talk about what takes place when a child is abused, they could say that they will be physically harmed or verbally put down. Alte atively, they could say that they will be neglected. Then again, one could mention all of these things, meaning that it won’t just relate to one type of abuse. Clearly, irrespective of whether a child is hit or abandoned, for instance, it is not going to do them any good. An All out Attack

Child Abuse: Is It Normal For Someone To Feel Guilty After Their Abusive Parent Passes On?

If someone had parent who was abusive during their early years, it can be hard for them to get on with them now that they are an adult. The reason for this is that this parent could be in denial when it comes to what took place all those years ago. Or, this parent could make out that one deserved it or that what took place wasn’t as bad as they make out. In both of these cases, one is not going to be shown the understanding, compassion or validation that they deserve. More Compromise

Child Abuse: What Beliefs Can Someone Have About Their Own Existence If They Were Abused As A Child?

If someone was abused and/or neglected as a child, it may have stopped them from realising that they deserve to be here. As a result of what took place, it can be as if they have no right to be on this planet. What took place at this stage of their life will then define how they experience life now that they are an adult. However, just because this will be the case, it doesn’t mean that one will be aware of this. How Life Is

Relationships: Can Someone Look Towards Others To Fulfil Their Unmet Childhood Needs?

If someone is an adult, it could be said that they won’t need the same things that they needed when they were a child. This comes down to the fact that they will have grown out of a number of these needs. As a result of this, what they look for from others is going to be different to what they looked for from their caregivers. Therefore, there will be what they needed then and there will be what they need now. Far more to it

Relationships: What Can Someone Do If They Are Triggered In A Relationship?

When one has only just started to spend time with someone, they can find that just about everything runs smoothly. So whenever they are with the other person, they can feel good and even relaxed. During this stage, they could believe that this is how it will always be and that they won’t ever experience conflict with this person. The weeks and months could then pass and this could be how it stays. A Different Experience

Healing Journey: How Can Someone Know If They Are Making Progress On Their Healing Journey?

When someone takes the first step on their healing journey and looks into what they can do to experience life differently, they may have suffered for many years. As a result of this, they may want their life to change more or less ove ight. If the pain that they are in is unbearable, it is to be expected that they will have such a strong need to experience life differently. It could be a challenge for them to handle life or they might just be able to keep it together. From Here

If someone’s emotions are not settled and they are all at sea, so to speak, there is the chance that they are going through a challenging time. Or, it could show that something in their life has had a big impact on them. The next step might be for them to reach out to a friend or a family member, for instance, for support. When it comes to the person who they reach out to, this could be someone they know they can trust. The Next Step

Relationships: Can Someone Project Their Parent/s Onto Other People?

When it comes to how someone perceives another person and the experiences that they have with them, it might not seem as though they are having much of an effect. One is then just aware of what this person is like and when they spend time with them, they won’t be playing a part, either. Therefore, one is just going to be an observer in both cases, which means that they won’t have much control. If they have a good view of another person and they generally get on with them, this won’t be an issue. Another Scenario

Self-Image: Is Our Life Defined By How We See Ourselves?

When it comes to a car, for instance, there is only going to be such much that it can do. So, how fast it can go or where it can be driven will all depend on what type of car it is. If someone wanted to change how fast a car can go or where it can go, it would need to undergo a number of changes. When it comes to a human being, on the other hand, what someone can do is often going to be defined by what is going on internally. The Power of Belief

Online Dating: Should Both Men And Women Be Careful What They Reveal If They Want A Relationship?

If someone was to use an online dating app to try to find a mate, it is naturally going to be different to how it would be if they were to try to find a mate in the real world. For one thing, there will be only so much information available to them online. When they are looking at another person’s profile, they will have a number of pictures to look through and they may even have a write-up to go over. It is then not really going to be possible for them to get a sense of what the other person is really like. In The Flesh

Relationships: Is It Possible To End Up With The Wrong Person?

Just as one can choose something on a menu and end up finding out that it is not very appealing to their taste buds; they can also end up choosing someone to be in a relationship with, only to find out that they are not a good match. However, although one can just stop eating a meal that doesn’t do anything for them, they might not simply be able to walk away from a relationship that is not right.

Are You Energetically Feeding Into What You Want Or What You Don't Want?

At the end of last month, I wrote an article title ‘Are You Energetically Feeding Into What You Don’t Want?’ Since that time I have been thinking more about this topic and, as a result of this, I decided that I had more to share. This article could be seen as a follow-up or it could be seen as a separate article, the reason being that I will cover some of the same points.

Child Abuse: Can Someone’s Need For Validation Stop Them From Being Able To Heal From Child Abuse?

If, after being abused and/or neglected as a child, someone was to get to a point in their adult life where they realised that this is what took place, they may experience a strong need for their experiences to be validated. It might seem strange as to why it took them so long to realise that this is that took place, but, this is usually what happens. There are at least two reasons as to why it would have taken a while for them to become aware of what happened. Firstly, what they experienced would have been normal, meaning that they wouldn’t have known that it was abuse. Protection

Creativity: Does The Modern-Day World Make It Hard For Someone To Be Creative?

From the moment one wakes up, their senses can be end up being bombarded with stimuli. This is something that can take place if they look at their Smartphone shortly after they wake up. Their mind can end up being stuffed with information that is both useful and useless. After this, they may have to go to work via train or tube, which is likely to mean that they will be exposed to numerous adverts, sounds and smells. The Next Phase

Self-Worth: Can Someone Be Made To Feel Worthless?

If one is in a relationship that is abusive, they can find that it is hard for them to feel good about themselves. So, through spending so much time around someone who undermines them, the good feelings that they had will have just about disappeared. Before this took place, they may have often experienced positive feelings and believed that they deserved to be treated well. Ergo, instead of being in a relationship that allows them to grow and develop; it will be a relationship that is destroying them. Another Example

You Need To Stop Caring About What Others Think!

One thing that is often said by people in the self-development world is that it is important not to care about what other people think. This is not the only area where this is said, though, as there are plenty of pages on social media where quotes are shared that have the same message. Taking this into account, it is likely to be a big surprise if someone hasn’t come across these words or words that have the same meaning at least once. And if someone hasn’t heard this from these two sources, they may have heard it from a friend or a family member, for instance. Important Words

Anger: Can Childhood Trauma Cause Someone To Disconnect From Their Anger?

One way to look at anger would be to say that it is something that someone experiences when they feel violated in some way. Therefore, to say that anger is bad wouldn’t be accurate. Nonetheless, if they were to become consumed by their anger and lost the ability to behave in a conscious manner, it could certainly cause them to do something that is destructive. They could end up doing something that they will later regret and the consequences could be severe. Emotional Containment

Avoidance Mode: Do Some Peoples Childhoods Set Them Up To Be In Avoidance Mode?

If the time had come for someone to make a big decision, what they may find is that they end up following their heart. In other words, they will go with what they feel called to do as opposed to doing something out of fear. This could typically be how they operate during their day-to-day life too, meaning that behaving in this way will be what is normal. Through living in this way, their life is likely to be far more fulfilling than it would be otherwise. A Strong Connection

Critical Chinking: Does The Education System Turn People Into Narcissists?

In the past, there were only a small percentage of people who went to university and only a few subjects were taught. Nowadays, it is often a case of who hasn’t been and numerous subjects are now taught at these institutions. One way of looking at this would be to say that it is a good thing as more people now have the opportunity to take part in higher education. What have also played a part in this are the loans that are available. The Ideal Preparation

Support: Do Some People's Childhoods Set Them Up To Believe That They Will Only Be Loved If They Need Their Parents?

If someone finds it hard to support themselves as an adult, it is likely to cause them to experience a fair amount of frustration, to say the least. This could mean that they don’t have a job or that the job that they have doesn’t pay them enough. If this is how their life has been for a little while it would be hard enough, but as this is how their life has more or less always been it will be even harder for them to handle. This could be seen as just how life is and something that they have to put up with. A Helping Hand

Being Present: Can Childhood Trauma Make It Hard For Someone To Be Present?

One thing that is often spoken about in self-development is the importance of being present. In some cases, this is seen as the answer to every problem and, in others, it is just seen as something that will allow someone to function better. So when someone is present, they won’t be caught up in what happened in the past and they won’t be caught up in what might happen in the future either. Their attention will be in the now.

Childhood Wounds: Can Someone’s Adult Life Be A Manifestation Of Repressed Childhood Pain?

If someone is an adult, it could be said that what took place when they were a child will be over. As a result of this, the pain that they experienced during this stage of their life will be firmly in the past. What could add weight to this view is that if they were to think about this stage of their life, they might not come into contact with any emotional pain. This alone could be seen as proof that what has been said above is correct. Another Piece

Self-Worth Is Not Something That Is Developed Ove ight

If someone doesn’t feel good about themselves, they can look for a way to change how they feel. They could be in a very desperate place, which may mean that they will try just about anything if it promises to change their life. So if they were to come across a book that said that their life could be changed in a few weeks or a course that claimed that their life could be transformed in a weekend, they might not even raise an eye brow. Without even thinking about it, they could end up taking the next step. The Perfect Outcome

Surrendering: Why Do Some People Find It Hard To Surrender?

In today’s world it is often believed that there are two ways to be in life, and one of these ways is often seen as good and another is often seen as bad. The first is to take action and to take life by the horns, which is the good way, and the second option is to be lazy and to sit around doing nothing, which is the bad way. It is then as though there is no middle ground here; one is either a doer or they are someone who doesn’t do anything. In addition to this, they can either receive positive feedback from others or they can end up being put down. Socially Acceptable Behaviour

Therefore, while living in this way will stop them from being able to be an authentic human being and to fully show up in life, it can be seen as the only way for them to survive.

It would be easy for someone to come to the conclusion that more people are into politics than ever before.

If someone was to engage in black and white thinking, they could even believe that everyone is into this area. Yet if they were to use their ability to think, and didn’t get caught up in this type of faulty thinking, it would still be clear that this is no longer a fringe area. A Number of Options

The years will have passed, that much is clear, but what they went through can still be having a massive impact on their life.

They could think that as their body is connected to them, there is no way that they could lose touch with this part of them.

Self-Worth: Do Some People Have To Develop Their Self-Worth Even Though They Were Born With It?

It is often said that human beings are born with inherent worth, meaning that this is not something that they need to develop or even earn. At the same time, what is often spoken about is what someone can do to develop their own self-worth. Upon hearing both of these views, one could end feeling slightly confused. What could end up coming to their mind is that, if human beings are born with inherent value, there would be no need for them to develop it. The Paradox
