Heartbroken and Despondent?

[asitis]

Sorry you and Matt are having such a rough time. Sometimes we just need to allow ourselves to feel the pain. That's not wallowing, and trying to bury it so that we can take care of business isn't healthy. If you have the time, just sit with the pain. Allow yourself to really feel it. Give yourself permission. If you can't give yourself permission to do this from time to time, you aren't letting yourself be human and it won't be sustainable.

When I'm really struggling, I focus on where in my body I'm feeling the pain (you know, tension, clenching, etc.). Just get in touch with the full experience of it. This and welcoming it rather than fighting it takes some of the power out of its sails because you are processing it and inserting some control but in a way that allows the feelings to just be there. It is sort of leaning in gently. Often, I find insights come about things I struggle with.

All that said, it [censored], but it does pass, just like everything else. This is just a step upon the journey to healing. So, embrace the suckiness for a bit. Make it something you do for yourself. Then you can get back to lighthouse mode.

Struggling a bit myself today, so maybe it is something in the planetary alignment. Horiscope says that WAW will push our buttons and we will question whether any of our hard efforts are worth it. Don't take it personally, Jupiter is in alignment with Alpha Centauri so just chalk it up to sh*t happens and you've just stepped in it.
