Dearest Smores,

Sending you love and healing as you move through this process with yourself and with your husband. As I agree with Anita, this will require more talking with your husband – I am learning how to communicate more in my relationship regarding things that have hurt me. So, I feel you very much and the journey you are on to heal. One thing I have learned is that when I don’t resolve my issues the hurt has turned into emotion (anger/resentment with them and myself) that becomes very deep-seated. I’m on my path to fully releasing and renewing, and again, I send you love for the same. You are not alone.

I also suggest that it’s very important for you to spend quality time with yourself – loving, embracing, accepting you in your entirety. I used to teach movement classes to women of all shapes, sizes, backgrounds, and ages that were aimed to help women connect with their bodies in a healthy and nurturing environment and which helped women step away from the pressures of: society, media, image, and a lot of times, men (although it was not a “man-hating” thing – just the conditioned ‘male thinking’ we as women face far too often). There were no mirrors and the room had soft lighting to help us get out of our brains and into a connected mind, body, soul authenticity. I’m not sure where you live, but I do suggest you find something of this nature. It’s extremely empowering, liberating, supportive, and healing. Whatever you find – You certainly need a safe place where you can find self-expression – get these emotions out of your body whether that’s through movement, painting, singing, writing, etc.

I hope this helps, and if there is anything else I can do from afar, please reach out.

Much love to that beautiful, complete, perfect body of yours.
Amy
