About this episode
Today, we will talk about the grief after narcissistic abuse, and the feeling of loss we experience after losing our parent-child connection, our home, or the family we envisioned having. We will discuss every stage we go through after the divorce, and how each one leads to the other. I'll share what I experienced after my divorce, and what I did to change how I responded to my ex-husband after the separation.
What You Will Learn In This Episode:
- Why we grieve after separating from a narcissist
- The stages we go through after a separation
- How we can find peace after accepting what we have been through
- What to do when we feel a sense of loss deep in our bones
When we think about healing from narcissistic abuse, it's not only about changing our thoughts. It is also about changing our body, about finding a sense of integration, and understanding that what happened, happened to us and not because of us, and that now we are safe.
