Had a really great time being away. Just being me, enjoying sun and sand, good food, exercise, relaxation and making some new friends. Also good to be home again.
This trip was significant for me in another way. I confronted some things in myself to go away and let go. I have my important resources and support network and I have significant roles and responsibilities, duty and emotional connections here at home. And I left. I went away on my own. Took a break for me. Responsibly. With integrity. And I feel really good about that.
In therapy upon my return, we discussed how my default action when I’m anxious and encountering fears or trauma triggers is to go To the fire, to get activated and sometimes to do to much for others. In this case, I faced a lot of anxiety and dealt with PTSD symptoms and took a good break. It was such a joy. I did well.
