Learning Trust

tumblr_m81ix8Gsdi1rp4f2ro1_400

For those of us who have been abused as children, we never learned to trust.  What I have found is that the lost of trust was really that we never learned to trust ourselves.  We never learned to protect ourselves, we did thing for others even if it was hurtful to us just to get love from them, and we never learned healthy boundaries.  As adults, we engaged in relationships with others in order to please them, and allowed others to hurt and manipulate us emotional, and even sexually.

In my emotional healing work, I have come to realize that this is how I got affection and love from others many times at my own detriment.  Now, I feel very differently, and have learned to trust myself.  I believe now that I am able to protect myself, that I will set healthy boundaries with others, and that I refuse to be hurt and manipulated any longer. This new perspective has helped me deal with my fears of being hurt by others as I never believed that I am capable of protection myself.  Doing “Ego Observing Practice” found at this tab on my Blogsite Homepage also has helped me cope with my fears of being hurt by others.

This trust is between us and our higher selves. Trust in your higher self to warn you when you may be injured by others, but also listen to your higher self who may tell you to give others a chance to show that they are trustworthy.  This awareness of our higher self will guide us through even the most difficult of circumstances in our lives.  You can find how to “Access the Higher Self” also found on this tab on my Blogsite Homepage.  May you seek the guidance of your higher self, Brooke (Copyright 2013 Kundalini Spirit with All Rights Reserved)

  1. Thanks for the post Brooke! I apologize up front if my links below are messed up. I’m still trying to figure out my way around here.
    No Doubt, trust was the most injurious manifestation, in my life, arising from sexual abuse, and it is a subject that has been demanding my attention lately. http://joybenders.wordpress.com/2013/11/11/everything-rests-on-trust/
    We come into this world as infants fully trusting our needs will be met. When our needs for physical safety and security are betrayed or broken, we lose our innocence and our capacity to trust is decreased. We get stuck on our physical needs rather than progressing naturally toward fulfillment of our needs for love / belonging, self-esteem, and self actualization. http://www.mindtools.com/pages/article/newLDR_92.htm
    Praise God, I am regaining my innocence, capacity to trust, and wholeness. Oh to re-find the trust of a unscathed child! There’s so much good news to share! I best get busy! Thanks again! http://biblehub.com/matthew/18-3.htm
