Hello,
Welcome to Jonergy Healing.
If you've not already done so,
May I suggest you also listen to the accompanying track titled,
Understanding Narcissism,
Affirmations for Healing and Empowerment.
To heal from dealing with a narcissist,
It's important to integrate practices that support your emotional,
Mental,
And physical well-being.
Here are 10 empowering practices for healing from narcissistic relationships.
Number one,
Educate yourself.
Understanding the disorder.
The more you know about narcissistic personality disorder,
The better equipped you are able to understand that their behavior is not your fault.
This knowledge can help you depersonalize their actions and focus on your healing.
Learn about no-trauma bonds.
Understanding the psychological bonds that can form in abusive relationships can help you recognize unhealthy attachment patterns and begin the process of breaking free.
Number two,
Establish firm boundaries.
Limit contact.
If possible,
Limit your interactions with the narcissist.
This could mean going low contact,
Which is minimal interaction,
Or no contact,
Cutting off all communication to protect your mental health.
Be consistent.
Clearly define what behaviors are unacceptable and stick to your boundaries,
Even if the narcissist tries to manipulate or guilt you into bending them.
Number three,
Practice self-care.
Engage in healing activities.
Activities such as meditation,
Yoga,
Journaling,
And spending time in nature can help you reconnect with yourself and process your emotions.
Nurture your body.
Regular exercise,
Proper nutrition,
And adequate sleep are crucial in helping your body and mind recover from stress and trauma.
Number four,
Seek support.
Maybe try therapy.
Working with a therapist,
Especially one who specializes in trauma or narcissistic abuse,
Can provide you with tools and strategies to heal.
And support groups.
Joining a support group with others who have experienced similar situations can be incredibly validating and provide a sense of community.
Number five,
Rebuild your self-esteem.
Affirmations and positive self-talk.
Continue to use affirmations that reinforce your self-worth and help counter the negative messages you may have internalized.
Celebrate small wins.
Acknowledge and celebrate even small steps forward in your healing journey.
Recognizing progress can help build your confidence and sense of self.
Number six,
Reconnect with yourself.
Rediscover your passions.
Engage in hobbies and activities that you enjoy but may have neglected while dealing with the narcissist.
This helps you reconnect with your true self and reflect on your values.
Take time to reflect on your core values and beliefs separate from the narcissist's influence.
This can help you reestablish your identity.
Number seven,
Cultivate healthy relationships.
Surround yourself with positive influences.
Build connections with people who respect,
Support,
And uplift you.
Healthy relationships are vital in the healing process.
Learn to trust again.
Trust can be damaged after dealing with a narcissist.
Take your time but gradually open yourself up to trusting others who have proven to be trustworthy.
Number eight,
Practice mindfulness.
Stay present.
Mindfulness practice such as deep breathing,
Meditation,
Energy healing can help you stay grounded in the present moment,
Reducing anxiety and stress.
Release negative emotions.
Mindfulness can also help you observe and release negative emotions without getting caught up in them.
Number nine,
Focus on forgiveness.
Forgive yourself.
Forgive yourself for any perceived mistakes or for staying in the relationship longer than you feel you should have.
Healing requires self-compassion.
Consider forgiving the narcissist.
Forgiveness doesn't mean condoning their behavior but rather releasing the emotional hold they have on you.
This can be a powerful step in your healing journey.
Number ten,
Visualize a positive future.
Set intentions.
Focus on what you want your future to look like free from the influence of the narcissist.
Visualizing a positive outcome can help you guide your actions and decisions.
Create a vision board.
A vision board can help you stay motivated and focused on the life you want to build after the narcissistic relationship.
As you integrate these ten empowering practices into your life,
Remember that healing is a journey,
Not a destination.
Each step you take,
No matter how small,
Brings you closer to reclaiming your power,
Your peace,
And your true self.
By embracing these practices,
You are choosing to break free from the change of past trauma,
Nurture your inner strength,
And create a life filled with authenticity,
Love,
And self-respect.
Trust in your resilience and courage,
Knowing that you have the power to heal,
Transform,
And thrive.
Thank you for joining me in this discussion today.
I'm grateful for the presence and the time you've taken to nurture your inner light.
May your day be filled with peace,

Namaste.
