Healing takes practice and it takes time. So I'm strong, strong, strong, pushing through, pushing through.
Ever find yourself trapped in a loop of negative thoughts, wondering why you feel so bad? In this episode of the Domestic Abuse Recovery Journal, Jennifer Mixon dives deep into the emotional turmoil many survivors of domestic abuse face. She addresses the heavy hitters: depression, chronic stress, and that nagging sense of worthlessness. But it’s not all doom and gloom.
Jennifer offers a beacon of hope by sharing practical tips on how to develop body positivity and break free from the 'fixer' role in dysfunctional relationships. Through her empathetic approach, she explains how codependency often creeps in, making us feel overly responsible for others' happiness. This, in turn, fuels our inner critic. Jennifer emphasizes the power of mindfulness and positive affirmations to combat these negative voices.
By recognizing and challenging our self-doubts, we can slowly build a healthier self-image and regain our sense of worth. This episode is a must-listen for anyone feeling overwhelmed by negative self-talk and looking for actionable steps to improve their mental well-being. Tune in and start your journey toward healing and self-discovery.
