It is Thorny Thursday!
Let’s talk about emotional first aid, because we’ve all been pricked.
I first learnt about visualisations & one that has very much stood out to me is when you close your eyes, picture yourself standing there with someone who hurt you and never said sorry for it.
Visualise this person apologising for what they have done to you, imagine them being sorry for the thing they hurt you with, imagine forgiving them, then wave goodbye and let the hurt go.
It is simple, but it is not easy. If you are having trouble with this, start with something small. Like that one time someone bumped into you and didn’t say sorry, or the person who cut you off in traffic today, picture them saying sorry to you.
Eventually the goal would be to have everyone who hurt you apologise for their wrong doings, allowing you to let go of the rope that is currently cutting into your hand because its still got a hold over you.
Let me know how you go with this visualisation! Reach out if you need help.
