Compassion is Healing Shame
Compassion is … healing shame. “Shame is all about not wanting to feel what you feel, and not wanting to know what you know.” Dr. Bessel Van Der Kolk
So spend the time to feel what you’re feeling, so you can know what your body and soul want you to know. This is the healing of PTSD. I feel blessed to do the Somatic healing work I do which includes healing shame which is always a part of the trauma, anxiety, and mindbody pain symptoms of my clients and self.
