Whether it's a breakup, divorce, rejection, passive aggressive avoidance, family separation, a neglectful family member, an absent parent, a disloyal friend, or even being fired from or turned down for a job, abandonment trauma is a near universal experience that we will all go through at times in our life. Even the passing of a loved one can leave us feeling abandoned.

It's just part of the deal with living on this planet. People will be hurt, they will hurt others, they will hurt us, and we too will at times unintentionally hurt others. People in their pain are unable to be there for the people they love and care about. People unhealed can't show up for others with the kindness and compassion to help them heal. When we are suffering immensely, we pull away, we retreat, and we try to hide our pain from the world but only end up abandoning everyone we love. Unconsciously, we want to bring people down to our level, and so the cycle of pain continues.

But, we can break that cycle. We can stop spinning that wheel of pain. We can heal and heal others. We can create those spaces for our loved ones to feel secure so that no one we care about feels abandoned ever again. We can understand that when people withdrawal, it has nothing to do with us and we can remain peaceful and loving. In today's YouTube video, I talk about how to heal, how to help others, and how to stop letting other people's wounds wound you.
