Can I tell you one benefit of surviving true trauma and getting to - TopicsExpress



          

Can I tell you one benefit of surviving true trauma and getting to the other side of it? You get so much better at sorting out what is worth stressing over and what is not. You increase your emotional endurance, and things that used to make you crazy or stress you out now seem like No Big Deal. In re-reading Nourished, the first chapter is called Melt Down on Aisle 13, when I had a panic attack from the overwhelm of a lot of company coming and staying for 10 days over a holiday. Now I read that chapter and think, What a wimp I was! Little did I know that in chapters to come in my life (most I was unable to write about in the book), that I would be facing TRUE traumas in the months to follow. Having survived some real Biggies, I yawn at the stress of holiday to-do lists. It will either all get done or it wont and well play it by ear. Se la vie.
