Disregard the previous email- Sorry-A glitch took over
Here's the final post for 3-9-25
Hello,
It’s Sunita here.
The writing is real. I’m real. Glitches are real. :(
Sorry for the inconvenience and intrusion of an extra email but here’s the final article I wrote for you.
Sincerely,
S
Hello,
It’s Sunita here.
We see the world skipping by as we toil (seemingly) endlessly, and with no end in sight. We start to feel like we are making huge sacrifices for a desired outcome that simply refuses to show its face to us.
We get discouraged.
We want to throw ourselves a pity party.
It’s easy to feel sorry for ourselves when things are hard. I know that feeling well.
But I also know an effective and constructive way that gets us out of the doldrums when tough times challenge us. Additionally, this process assists us in expanding our consciousness to create new realities for ourselves!
I’ll explain this 2 step actionable path by sharing an example of when I call on it .
Feel free to write down Plug in your project details where you see (___) to make it personal, if you would like to understand it from your own point of view. I’ve found that to be the best way to understand and learn something.
My past decade (___) has been about TWBH.(___) It is The Assignment of my life. I have made significant changes in my life (___) to be able to devote my full attention and energy to my mission of bringing Trauma and Transcendence into the same space.(___) This mission has given me meaning, purpose and a focus (___) beyond what I thought I was capable of.
But if I’m being honest, I will admit to stretches of time when the road to creating the change I aim to make for others who have suffered trauma is very difficult, heavy and lonely. The urge to throw a pity party for myself certainly comes up from time to time! (___)
I can get overwhelmed and discouraged (___) as I deal with the high level of uncertainty that comes with bringing to life something new, original, and yet timeless, and the task of breaking down the complexity of my subject, Thriving Past Trauma, in simple, clear and actionable ways for others to benefit from. (___)
Step 1
Reflect Re-understand Reframe
Reflect-Why am I doing this? (___) I remind myself of my Why. (___)
Re-understand- Move away from my present state of frustration/depletion/it’s so hard/poor me/I’m all alone/I can’t do this any more/I’m afraid /I see no end to this/OMG! what was I thinking!/I’m exhausted/etc. (___) to re-understand where my present state is coming from (___) and from there empower myself with knowing what I can do (___) to make the shift back to my optimistic, energetic and determined state.
Reframe- Creating TWBH (___) is my CHOICE. It is not a sacrifice.
This step brings me back to a state of personal power, intention, joy and purpose. I remember that I have chosen to live this way.
Step 2
Remember that my Words Matter.
We use words for ourselves that reflect our inner self image. We automatically look at our life through the lens of the embedded (by others) narratives that lay in our unconscious mind.
Making these narratives and habitual patterns of thinking and acting conscious to us requires work and practice but are the way we reclaim our true selves and personal power.
The great news is that we are designed to do that work and are capable of becoming more self aware of our motivations to feel and do things in ways that do not serve us.
I know. Because I have learned how to successfully, predictably and repeatedly do that. And that is my TWBH work. Bringing it you is my Why.
And it is my Choice to devote myself to this mission.
Not a sacrifice.
Until next time,
Wishing you all a powerful start to an incredible week,
Moving forwards,
Sunita
PS- For the record, here’s my personal opinion on Pity Parties. They can serve as cleansing, cathartic and purging opportunities if, they are kept brief, preferably shared with a close friend/friends as a collective activity, and are infrequent.
These steps are 2 of the 12 circles of TWBH practice of Self Love Self Care First® Using more than 1 practice at a time is called SLSCF super stacking.
We super stacked today :)
