Emotional Detachment For Mental Health

Attachments bind us to whatever we attach to. When we attach, we often emotionally enmesh without realizing it. Healthy detachment allows us to think logically, rationally, and freely. When we are attached, we are not free. In this podcast, let's unpack what it means to detach for our own mental health and wellness.

Very good reminder, I needed this. What you said about knowing when you fall off the wagon being worth celebrating because now you know there IS a wagon is exactly how I’m feeling today. This talk helped me remember to celebrate my growth.

Resonated with this one….was an eye opener. Wishing all peace and love.

Very fascinating talk. I enjoyed it a lot

an older talk that i just discovered- and one that i needed to hear today. thank you Lisa 🙏

WOOW!! I connected with this so much. I had a difficult time instilling healthy boundaries in my last relationship. I was often cut off from speaking my feelings. I can see how manipulative the tactics were when loving communication were not used to express her feelings, and I was extremely heartbroken and scared when she told me she would hurt herself if I left her alone/leave 😭I thought taking care of her through this and offer compassion was the best option, but afterwards I felt my loving actions were never enough. When I felt sad or taken advantage of, I would bring this up in the best way I could and instead of receiving support she would tell me in anger “what’s wrong with you.” It completely sabotaged and demoralized me as I tried helping her through her difficult times but didn’t get the reciprocation. If your partner’s actions doesn’t match their words, is this intentional manipulation or simply unconsciousness? I see how this was a trigger for me, but I shouldn’t have let her lack of empathy trigger me. I thought there was something wrong with me bc I would often feel sad and angry since it was a repetitive pattern. I often felt that she wanted to be in control of our conversations and almost in any situation, which made me feel further like I wasn’t enough. “Thinking everyone is as nice as you are, and they’re not.” I’m finding it very difficult for me to accept that after listening to this she didn’t truly care about me. But I see the red flags from the beginning and throughout the relationship. Perhaps these were unconscious patterns on both ends. Can you have care for someone and still dismiss their feelings? I see my responsibility here with my codependency traits. I always become more compassionate when I see others suffering and I knew she was suffering. I have to remember that I cannot help in healing someone else and vice versa. I have to love myself first. That is what truly heals. Can codependency be fully healed while in a relationship or is it simply managed? Thank you so much again from shining light on my codependency and reminding me to stay strong with my healthy boundaries, remain in love and light, and not allow anyone to trigger me. I am going to sign up for your courses soon 🙏🏽💙✨
