Being Whole: 21 Days to Overcoming Relational Trauma보기

IDENTITY:

Trauma can have a significant impact on one's identity. Traumatic experiences can shatter an individual's sense of self and disrupt their understanding of the world around them. Trauma is often an event or experience that exceeds our capacity to cope with it effectively, and it can leave us feeling helpless, confused, and disoriented. Have you ever heard of the word fragmentation. Trauma can lead to a fragmented sense of self, where parts of the individual's identity may feel disconnected from each other. This can make it difficult for the individual to feel a sense of coherence and consistency in their self-concept. Being WHOLE will require you to integrate all parts of yourself that have been shattered and scattered by trauma. Before there can be any integration, there must be acceptance of self.

Self-acceptance is the act of embracing oneself without judgment or reservation. It involves acknowledging and accepting one's strengths, weaknesses, flaws, and limitations as a part of who they are, and being kind and compassionate towards oneself. We will dive deeper into this concept and more in the days to come. For now, meditate on the scripture provided and we (God and I) will meet you here tomorrow.

Question to Ponder:

Are there parts of you that you reject? Why? What messages about yourself do you hear the most? According to the scripture how does God see you? Whose message will you choose to believe?
