Sometimes we "let it go" when it's not safe to process it. We're not actually 'letting it go' rather than suppressing it to survive. I am grateful for your openness in sharing your journey. It has helped me more than you can know. 50 years of suppressed trauma erupted for a while, and I was able to acknowledge, validate, and heal from it (with my therapist). Whilst time can be helpful in creating distance, in my experience true healing comes with exploration, gentleness, understanding, validation, compassion and love. Eternal gratitude for your authenticity and wisdom Alexandra. With love ❤️ xx

I think a year of self-care and reflection is a wonderful way to honour the solstice and your own healing journey.
