We are now trying to better settle into and understand some recent realization we received about why we are struggling to move forward in a better experience of life receiving blessings (which is that we have some unresolved trauma from the past when we ignored our emotions and acted out of alignment with our soul).

This is a good thing to do.

However, at the very beginning of this time period, we are struggling to do that. That is because we are still frustrated that we even have these issues to begin with, and because we are unable to connect with our emotions and what needs to be healed.

This makes us feel a bit down or off.

However, we don’t let that get the best of us. Instead, we shake it off and continue to think about and try to understand our situation in more light-hearted ways.

Doing that then leads us to an important realization (in addition to the one we received a few days ago). That realization is that there is simply too much to heal and resolve during this time period, and that we either need to put off some things in our lives until we heal or at least slow them down greatly. It is also that we need to allow ourselves to more fully explore our emotions in order to heal them.

That is a bit frustrating, but deep down I think we know it is the right thing to do.

That then gives us a new approach to understanding our emotions and healing our trauma — which is to more deeply think about and explore our trauma from a more emotional and sentimental place, instead of a logical or practical one.

However, actually doing that — and exploring our emotions more from a sentimental place — proves difficult and scary (because we aren’t used to doing it). As a result, we feel confused, overwhelmed, exhausted, sad, etc.

Because of that, I recommend that you accept the fact that you need to more deeply think about and explore your emotions from a more sensitive place. I also recommend that you accept the fact that it will most likely be messy and uncomfortable. I also recommend that you give yourself much patience, compassion, and grace throughout this process — and surrender to it!
