Healing from Toxic Relationships
Course Bundle
Have you ever left a relationship and thought WTF just happened? Or have you been in a relationship where you were constantly questioning what was happening, who the other person really was, or why you stayed in it longer than you would normally stay in a relationship that didn't make you happy?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may have been in a toxic relationship, that may have included intimate partner violence (emotional abuse counts!). In order to truly heal from these relationships, we have to understand what happened in them.
Learning about the abuse has two main functions:
One - It helps us process the memories in our frontal cortex so that we can remove them from being stuck in the hippocampus. When memories are stuck there, we experience them as PTSD or trigger or activating responses. In other words, the confusing memories are stuck in our bodies and get expressed as surprising reactions from out of nowhere.
Two - It teaches us what happened so we don't get in those relationships again! So many times, people will leave abusive relationships, only to get into another one, or one that is toxic and controlling, so it doesn't seem as bad as the abusive relationship, but it still hurts.
Do yourself a favor and learn WTF happened so you can heal and not experience that hurt again!

Thank you for your support and for your courage to learn and heal! <3 :)
While you're here, also check out my Warning Signs books! They tell my story of domestic violence, and teach about the domestic violence that was occurring at the end of every chapter. It's another way to learn and heal, and a way to teach people in your life about it too, so you don't have to do as much explaining. <3
Most of the first book is also uploaded as a podcast!
