Don't look back, look forward...

"There's no point looking back, look forward"...is what I told my dog this morning.

'When an animal senses danger, its adrenal system instructs it either to run from the danger, stand and fight, go numb, or decide all is safe and shake out those danger signals. Why can't we do that? Too many of us spend our lives treating children, spouses/partners, and sometimes even parents in ways that discourage the release of trauma and encourage the storing of it in the gut.' Noah Karrasch

But have you ever thought about a situation that just feels right? When you meet a partner for the first time, a prospective employer or even a client, sometimes it just clicks and you trust your gut instinct about that person.

Life is full of opportunity and many of us hold back seeing each opportunity as a threat, in fear of change and feeling sick to the stomach.

When you have a trauma in life things don't go back to the way they were exactly, they change and adapt. Often not just for physical reasons but something inside is searching to do something differently. Sometimes it's difficult to understand what learnings we can take from a negative situation but eventually the opportunity emerges without searching  and the letting go can continue.
