The After Holiday Fall Out

Well, it's the day after a holiday for many of you. Could get a little intense.

Just a quick note to let you know that you are not alone...these kinds of days are hard for many of our children.  It is not because you are doing anything wrong. It's not because they don't care about you nor is it because they are necessarily broken beyond repair! 

It IS because the healing is a long process.  Sometimes, a lifetime.  The brokenness has cut to the core.

It IS because it is all so counter-intuitive.  You really have to do it differently. Many weren't prepared.

It IS because healing takes creating new core beliefs and brain wiring. Needs unending opportunities to happen.

It IS because others can't see it so they don't get it. Always swimming upstream is tiring.

Take a deep breath.
Look forward and not back.
Take the next step. 
You CAN do this! 


Healing (for yourself, your kiddos and actually for your whole family) takes forward movement, action, and a plan B, C, D...


So here's my question for you...What action are you choosing to take today? It's how you stay in it. It's how you thrive not just survive. This is how healing happens!
