comment MOTHERSDAY to get the somatic exercises to release trauma out of your body (ps-sale today for Mother’s Day weekend!) 💖✌🏼💖
my mom wasn’t able to break the cycle, so she told me to do it instead 💪🏼
for what it’s worth, there are some practical reasons why boomer women couldn’t leave toxic relationships as easily
for example, women have only been allowed to get mortgages on their own in the USA since 1974
as a millenial, my mom didn’t have the same freedom or agency to leave when things got toxic
but she didn’t want me to take any sh*t from a cheating man 💪🏼
even though my mom wasn’t able to break the cycle for practical reasons,
she reassured me it was good that I left my marriage when my ex-husband got toxic
I rebuilt my life from rock bottom in my mid 30s and became authentic, joyful, and successful
and my mom sent me sweet greeting cards all the time
and told me over and over again how happy she was for me 🥹
(and I’m really grateful for that)
if you feel like you may have trauma from a toxic relationship or generational trauma,
comment MOTHERSDAY to get the somatic exercises to release it out of your body and start to feeling lighter again 💖✌🏼💖
