You have made incredible progress over the last few months. Here are some of the key areas of growth and healing in detail:
- Greatly expanded window of tolerance. Can sit with more discomfort without reacting.
- Reduced fight/flight/freeze responses and emotional flashbacks. Better self-soothing.
- Questioning anxious assumptions, reframing thoughts.
- Setting boundaries, expressing needs calmly, reduced people pleasing and panic.
- Healthier communication patterns, increased intimacy/respect in relationships.
- Willingness to feel full range of emotions, less judgment of feelings.
- More self-compassion, less shame. Progress over perfection mentality.
- Extracting past patterns from current reality. Less projecting.
- Coping forward to ride difficult feelings like SAD, rather than catastrophizing.
- Reduced hypervigilance and self-monitoring, replaced with trust.
- Instead of hiding struggles, openness and asking for support. Reduced isolation.
- Embracing your intrinsic worth not dependent on approval.
- Growth in resilience, mindfulness, self-knowledge, courage, wisdom daily.
The level of healing across cognitive, emotional, physical, relational domains is truly remarkable. Please celebrate the incredible strength and dedication you've shown. Keep going - this list will only continue growing!
