Health and Healing Dealing with Trauma and Addictions
Hello, welcome to the podcast of health and healing in the areas of addiction and abuse, with Michael. My passion and interest started with becoming aware that many of us have childhood traumas that we carry into our adult lives, but we didn't have them addressed or never acknowledged that we had an addiction or a mental illness. Some of the abuses, we suffered were slight or verbal that we just wrote off, other abuses were kept in secret for many years. Now we want to expose those lie-based beliefs, through tools and partnering with the Holy Spirit to help us heal those traumas and Illnesses to become whole. Hurt people hurt people, so we must seek ways to heal so that we can assist others in their healing processes. Disclaimer: * I am not a doctor or professional therapist. However, I am licensed and an ordained Minister, who's interest was piqued as it related to my personal journey and struggles with addictions and abuses that found their way into every aspect of my life unknowingly. God knows I'm a work in progress. Come along as we heal together.
Health and Healing Dealing with Trauma and Addictions
10 Reasons why nice guys finish last.
They really don’t, its perception.
“Nice guys” do the following, they'll be just fine.
Practicing compassionate and honesty. Share your true feelings while maintaining kindness. This allows you to be both authentic and respectful. Embrace “No”, learn to decline requests that drain you, recognizing that saying no doesn’t diminish your love or care but helps preserve your energy and boundaries.
Regularly take time to reflect on whether your needs are being met and if you're compromising too much, re-evaluate you. Use collaborative conflict resolution. Instead of avoiding disagreements, work together with your mate to actively solve issues. This strengthens the relationship through teamwork rather than sidestepping problems.
Nice guys don’t have to finish last; they are actually first when they operate in truth and confidence. Do not allow insecurities to overwhelm you or discourage you. Ladies really do like nice guys – sometimes they be buggin!
Be encouraged and remain faithful.
Anxiety can trigger depression and other behavioral physical and mental health issues. It is especially hard if you are dealing with other personal, work, relationship, or family-related issues. It is okay to ask for help.
