WTYL Episode 18 Can This Relationship Be Saved? Letting Go Of Emotional Baggage

The Diabetic Toolbox

Healing takes courage, and we all have courage, even if we have to dig a little to find it” Tori Amos Today is Relationship Monday , a heavy topic to be attacking at the beginning of the week, but I think you can handle it. We are doing a deep dive into Part 2 of our Can This Relationship Be Saved Series- Today we are talking about emotional baggage, and how it can ruin your life and your new relationships. Don’t think just romantic, think friendship, family, co-workers, church members, emotional baggage left unchecked can permeate every area of your life and leave you feeling empty and alone. Breathe! I am going to give you three tips you can use to unpack and unload this burden. Have you stopped speaking to your parents or siblings because of something they did to you? I want you to know that you are worthy of being happy. You are worthy of having stable relationships in your life. You are worthy of being loved. You are worthy of having a great career and doing something every day that you love. But to do this, you must heal your mindset and change the way you interact with the world and the people in it. Acknowledgement is the first step towards healing and with healing comes forgiveness and acceptance. Your homework for this week, sit down in a quiet area. Clear your head space, put away all your electronics. Take out that journal you purchased at the beginning of the year, :) or, just a piece of paper, think about your relationships and the things you would like to change. Write down the three steps: Acknowledge and release, forgiveness, learn from your mistakes-and write down the piece of emotional baggage you would like to release. Once you walk you way through those three steps, Answer the following questions. 1. Ask yourself, how could I have handled that situation differently? 2. What will I do to ensure that it doesn’t happen again? 3. Is there something I can do to salvage this relationship and make it whole? 4. How should I apologize? 5. Who will I become when I’m healed? Why is this so important to me?
